[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-joo] The Korea Road Traffic Authority announced on the 7th that it will increase the capacity of the large trailer truck driving license test at the Gangnam Driver's License Examination Center by 120 people for three weeks starting from the 10th of this month to alleviate the backlog and inconvenience faced by test takers.


Many applicants wish to obtain a large trailer truck (trailer) driving license for livelihood purposes, but the registration schedule closes early, causing a backlog of about a month and significant inconvenience for test takers.


At the Gangnam Driver's License Examination Center, the only place in Seoul where the large trailer truck test is available, the test was previously operated with 10 sessions per week and a capacity of 56 people. They have now reduced some sessions for certain vehicle categories and reallocated personnel to implement a flexible test operation plan.


Accordingly, from the 10th for three weeks, the number of sessions will increase to 18 per week with a capacity of 96 people, allowing up to 288 applicants to take the test, which is expected to ease the backlog.



Lee Sang-chul, head of the Gangnam Driver's License Examination Center, said, "We hope that this increase in the large trailer truck license test will relieve the inconvenience of applicants who seek the license for their livelihood," adding, "We will continue to practice ESG management through flexible operations for applicants visiting the Gangnam Driver's License Examination Center."
