Petition Raise the practical driving test standards considerably.

By raising the Practical Driving Test Standards we can expect to see only the safest drivers pass and the road fatalities fall. If the standards are raised considerably everyone including young drivers will enjoy a lower insurance premium and safer roads.

More details

The average cost for a young driver under the age of 25 to obtain an insurance in 2018 is a whopping £1400!

Young drivers account for a quarter of road fatalities.
