Would have thought this was fairly common knowledge. The RSA have released a few warnings over the years about not wearing them while driving.
So to be clear, those conversations go something like this:
Learner to TD: Can you help me get a retest quickly
TD: of course, kiddo!
TD to RSA: Please expedite retest for the gobshite who came with Sandals.
RSA: No
TD to Learner: I did everything I could my friend. I fought hard but it didn’t work out this time. Please don’t forget to vote me next time. Cheers, bye.
Excellent use of everyone’s time.
He has no intention of passing at all. Learner’s permit all the way
Good.
I don’t want gobshites driving and wearing sandals sharing the road with me
I bet it was those damn Japanese.
Sandal wearing goldfish tenders!
Well, yeah? I know of someone who crashed her new BMW because she was wearing flip flops, one came off and got stuck under the brake pedal and she rear ended another car
I am 90% sure that taxi drivers are not permitted to wear sandals whilst working. May not be enforced but it is a road safety requirement.
