The
Road Safety Authority (RSA) is the regulatory body for driving
instruction in Ireland. Driving instructors who meet the standard
set by the RSA will become Approved Driving Instructors (ADI).
An ADI Registrar based in the RSA heads up the unit responsible
for the registration process. The ADI Registrar will set up
a Stakeholders Forum to give a chance to those involved in
driving instruction to have their say. See below for contact
details.

Issues Warning To Rogue Driving Instructors
The RSA is warning un-regulated driving instructors that they
must comply with the new laws which were introduced recently
to regulate driving instructors in Ireland or face enforcement
action.
The
provision of driving instruction for reward by unlicensed
instructors carries a penalty upon conviction of a fine not
exceeding €2,000 or at the discretion of the court, to
imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months, or both.
Driving schools that also employ unlicensed driving instructors
face similar penalties.
Since
1st May 2009 it has become an offence to give driving instruction
to a learner driver for hire or reward unless the instructor
is on the RSA register of approved driving instructors (ADI).
The RSA is advising learner drivers to take lessons from full
permit holding ADIs as the best way to learn.
If
you witness un-licensed driving Instruction operating in your
area please report it to either the Gardai at your local Garda
Station or to the RSA at adienforcement@rsa.ie Alternatively
call us on telephone 096.25007.
