The DGT takes on 60 new examiners to unclog the tests after the pandemic and the arrival of summer

Date:

A third of them have been performing all their duties since 9 May, before having completed the compulsory qualification course.

A year ago it was estimated that due to the lack of examiners, some 800,000 students were unable to take the practical driving license exams. This waiting time was caused by the lack of research staff to cover the practical tests of the various tourist offices, and mainly affected the citizens who in many cases
they had to wait up to six months to be examined of the practical driving test.

But the General Directorate of Traffic (DGT) set to work to solve this problem, and more before the summer. For example, as of today, it has 60 new interim traffic inspectors across Spain, although a third of them have already been performing its duties since 9 May, having previously completed the compulsory qualification course for it.

To this figure should be added
In addition, the 47 career officials corresponding to the public labor supply for 2021, which entered service last April and are now fully included in the research staff.

All, who are responsible for the assessment of driver’s license applicants, join the DGT at a time of year such as the time leading up to the crucial summer for these cases, as they
months with the highest demand for these tests This increase in the workforce will increase research capacity and consequently provide citizens with better public services.

In 2021, DGT took 2,596,933 driving license exams, the highest number since 2010. Of all the tests performed, 1,071,822 were theoretical exams, 300,664 skills exams and 1,224,447 practical exams.
