    Does anybody know if the traffic before the Munster v Northampton match will be very bad near Thomond Park at 5 o'clock? I have a driving test at 5 in Woodview and am worried that it will be disrupted due to the congestion.

    the driving test tends to go in around the estates with some main roads, at least it did when i did mine, traffic will be bad, and they will know it at the test centre, so they will probably have prepared a route to avoid the worst of it.

    I do not envy you. I did my test in Woodview years ago but I would imagine the route should not have changed as the area hasnt either.

    It brought me through the estates and onto the Ennis road and up Shelbourne road, right past Thomond Park and back to the test centre.

    I do not envy you at all but be assured the instructor will make allowances for the congestion and increase in people movement.

    Shouldnt be any extra traffic around there at 5, just the normal friday evening people. It will start to build up about half 6.

    In a way it could work to ur advantage. The test is 40mins long regardless of traffic. If you are stopped or stuck in slow moving traffic, then you have less opportunity to make a fúck up.

    Traffic would be normal around that time still busy enough for a friday but the traffic will be heavy but the instructor prob kill you in around the estates.

    Good Luck:)
