Rejected petition Agricultural vehicles on main roads during rush hour

More details

Agricultural vehicles are inconsiderately/unnecessarily being driven on UK roads during peak times (school and work rush hour) and are responsible for causing huge tailbacks/delays that inconvenience other road users who attempt to manoeuvre past causing unnecessary stress/risk which could possibly lead to speeding offences or avoidable accidents just to prevent lateness. Restricting use of roads to agricultural vehicles between 7.30am and 9.30am and 4.30pm and 6.30pm and would have a positive impact.
