Transport Commissioner Clive Clarke speaks about changes coming to the Licensing Division. - ROGER JACOB
In the coming months, Transport Commissioner Clive Clarke will introduce a new regulations test for class three vehicles and new driving tests for first-issue permits.
These changes are aimed at improving the quality of drivers, reducing accidents and road fatalities and consequently saving lives.
Newsday spoke with Clarke on Monday, when he touched on some of his plans for the continued modification of the Transport Division.
He intends to introduce a revised regulations exam and criteria for driving tests.
For the new driving test, the student will be required to perform a self-check on the car before beginning the yard test, in which the student is required to make a three-point turn, in a box, without touching the line.
