Drivers Examiners put the brakes on driving tests
MEDICINE HAT — If you are looking at booking a drivers exam in the next couple of weeks, your chances could be hit-or-miss, depending on where you go.
On Thursday, many Drivers Examiners took job action in protest of the government’s compensation for examiners when they become government employees starting on March 1.
The Certified Drivers Examiners Association is also planning to take legal action against the government, which includes a lawsuit.
The walkout is planned to last two weeks. As of Friday morning, wait times to get a drivers exam were between eight to twelve days in Medicine Hat.
