Jardine secures Minister meeting on Driving Tests

13 Oct 2025

Edinburgh West MP Christine Jardine has won a meeting with the Transport Minister in which she will once again call for the Department of Transport to urgently address the months-long wait for driving tests.


This follows Christine’s ongoing campaign calling for action to be taken to reduce the increasing wait time for driving tests.


Christine said: "Six months is far too long for people to wait when they may need to be able to drive for their career, to care for relatives, or be able to overcome a lack of public transport.
 

“I will be pressing the minister to take specific action in Edinburgh and the rest of Scotland to get the system moving."
