Petition Simplify the motorcycle test

Since the implementation of directive 2006/126/EEC the UK motorcycle test has become unnecessarily complicated and prohibitively expensive.

More details

The closed circuit part of the test that ensures riding at 50 KMH is totally irrelevant. We wish to see a structured sensible test similar to the previous test that provided safe training and restricted access to powerful bikes for a short period as we believe this was the most successful version of motorcycle testing. We believe that structured training is preferable to complicated legislation as a way to reduce accidents.
