Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Insurance policies are private arrangements between individual insurance companies and policy holders, and are not the responsibility of the Government or Parliament.
The Association of British Insurers has published advice about the impact of coronavirus on different types of insurance, and suggests that if you want to keep your car but won't drive it for a while you should contact your insurance provider to see how they can support you: https://www.abi.org.uk/products-and-issues/topics-and-issues/coronavirus-hub/motor-insurance/
You can find out more about coronavirus and how you can protect yourself and others here:

The Government has also created an online service to help you out what you can do if you’re struggling because of coronavirus: https://www.gov.uk/find-coronavirus-support
