Rejected petition Ban roadside advertising

More details

The use of large advertising boards (especially those attached to large lorries) by the sides of motorways and main roads is on the increase.
This trend distracts drivers and severly reduces the amenity of the countryside.
We call for new legislation or teh ammendment of exiting legislation to ban such advertising.
