Driving Test Questions & Answers Ireland
At Pinnacle Driving School we encourage pupils to ask questions on anything they are unsure about. We can guarantee that no matter how trivial, silly or stupid you think the question is, we can guarantee that it won’t be something we have already been asked a hundred times before. Only by asking questions can you fill in the gaps in your knowledge and learn faster. Below are some of the most common questions we are asked.
If you have any similar queries please email [email protected] and we will both reply in person and add the question and answer to this page.
