Of the 496 waiting in Thurles 261 have a date for their test while 218 of the 408 in Nenagh know when their test will be.
The figures – which were obtained by Kerry local election candidate Jackie Healy-Rae Junior – show there are just three testers trying to get through the backlog in the Premier County.
A further 989 learner permit holders in Tipperary are not in a position to take their test yet as they have not taken the required number of driving lessons.
