Petition Top Gear Should be Removed from our Screens

More details

The BBC program Top Gear promotes high octane automobiling. Unfortunately, it also promotes motoring which removes responsibility in driving. It also promotes a desire for high powered vehicles which can exceed the national speed limit by an order of magnitude. Top Gear is watched by about 2 million people every week and this means the program is very popular. I argue that the philosophy promoted by Top Gear presenters is in direct opposition to the governments drive for safer driving and lower deaths on the road. I would like Top Gear removed from TV screens in the UK.
