Driving Licence Medical

Anyone know the exact location of the medical place that does the tests for your Spanish licence ?
Right near the Trafico office in Rosario.. 

Cheers

Facing the Traffico office entrance, take the road to the right, down about 20 metres on the left! Not even a minutes walk!

FYI, Licence took 7 weeks from day of application at Traffico to arrival by post to home address, just so you are aware

The test is like playing two 1980s video games, one with each hand   LOL

That was quick! Mine was in the region of 6 months

It took about 4 months for my new Spanish licence to come through.  Trafico blamed it on the DVLC being slow.

You are issued with a temporarylicence while you wait for the new one.

Apparently, they now have a direct link to DVLA and details are checked in real time, in fact mine was cleared as correct while I was still there, (amazing, we are at Traffico remember ) So it took 10 mins to confirm licence correct via DVLA, and 7 weeks for Traffico to process  , anyway result as far as I was concerned

The bloke on the door in Traffico is a bundle of laughs .....

That's fine for driving in Spain but no good if you wish to drive in another country, especially if you need to hire a car. My first Spanish licence didn't turn up in the post and Trafico insisted that I had to wait until it had been 'missing' for 3 months before they would start the process again! For this second attempt I asked for the licence to be posted to Trafico for me to collect. I then visited Trafico for weeks and weeks and weeks to see if it had arrived until finally I was met with cheers when I walked in one day! They do have a sense of humour (sometimes!).

Off track a bit, but does anyone know if there is a charge by Trafico for changing your address? And, do you change your address for your licence and/or each vehicle you might own? Thanks.
