Drive Test Talks Resume

DriveTest and the United Steel Workers, which represents driving examiners across the province, are slated to resume negotiations this morning.

Jim Young, president of Local 9511, says it remains to be seen how long this rounds of talks will last.

Job security is the key issue at the table.

The strike affects all 55 full-time DriveTest locations and 38 part-time centres -- the only facilities that grant licences to novice drivers and renew licences for motorists over 80.
