Rejected petition Make insurance for young drivers cheaper
Insurance for young drivers is anywhere up to £1000 or above and it's simply not affordable for most people who work for minimum wage
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The cost of car insurance is a decision for insurance companies to make, rather than the Government or Parliament.
You could start a petition asking for tighter regulation of car insurance costs, or asking the Government to work with insurance companies to lower the costs. We already have two petitions open on the site about these issues. You might like to sign one of them. You can find them here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
