A propos not crossing a road except at a designated crossing, that might be ok in large towns but certainly not in a small one in Ireland... my nearest designated crossing is nearly 2 miles away.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

I've been racking my brain to think where there is one within 10 miles of here.

I'm curious why anyone should resent re taking their driving test. What to they have to worry about IF they're safe to be behind the wheel. How many UNSAFE drivers are we happy to have on the roads? Just because we don't have enough testers now, is no reason why we shouldn't start training more. I'd LOVE to see public transport improved. There are plenty of younger people who rely on it to get to school, college work etc who can't afford driving lessons, never mind running a car. Maybe we should just give everyone in rural areas with poor public transport a driving license on their 17th birthday so they can be independent ?
I have no objection in principle, simply that it is impractical certainly in the current environment where there aren't even enough examiners for new drivers. Can you imaging the chaos if such a scheme was already in operation?
Where are all the people coming from to fill the HGV driver requirements, along with the driving examiners..... There is a massive shortage of skilled staff (Yeah, blame it on Brexit) as always.
