now im not talking about the queues to go and book for a drivers test, im talking about the time duration between date booked and date of test.

When my older brother did his test (Jan 2006) he had to wait 2months (by world standards thats still long) and I remember this clearly because I remember the day he got his licence like it was yesterday.

So now for me I made a booking 3months ago, i still have 2months more of waiting (mid June is my D day). if it matters I'm talking about the testing center in Port Elizabeth.

I live in Cape Town most of the year and even here its not "that" much better with a 3month waiting Queue in most of the main testing centers. I know a lot of people in NZ who say that they can fail a test and redo it the same afternoon if youre lucky. (although NZ have a different licensing strategy)

/rant over. I know im not alone here. sorry this is just a pointless rant thread
 
Well come to Somerset West, depending on the time of the year it could be as little as two weeks :) and if you fail, and your nice, they let you rewrite the following week (even on a Saturday) - thats what happened to my neighbour (she rewrote it 4 Saturdays in a row till her learners expired)

* This was 2 months ago

Awesome, will go to Somerset West in a short mini-skirt. Being a dude, a REALLY hope this still works.
 
Depends where you live dude,they are ,most are not run well due to lack of funds etc.
 
Maybe it is different for motorcycles, earlier this month I made an appointment and did the test a week later (Milnerton). Never had to wait more then 20minutes in any queue either.
