Driving examiners across the UK are to stage a one-day strike over pay
Driving examiners across the UK are to stage a one-day strike over pay, threatening disruption to thousands of driving tests.
Around 1,500 examiners will walk out on February 17 after voting heavily in favour of industrial action.
The Public and Commercial Services Union said 5,000 driving tests will be disrupted by the stoppage.
The examiners voted by over 70% in favour of industrial action in a long-running dispute over pay.
It will be the first strike by driving test examiners in more than a decade.
The union also announced that administrative workers at driving centres will strike for two days, February 16 and 17, because of the pay row.
