Petition Stop discrimination against 16-18 year olds on public transport

More details

As it is compulsory for students to attend education past the age of 16, they should not have to pay adult fares to use public transport. Some areas are discriminated against as they are rural and some students must travel vast distances to get to school.

If they cannot vote before being 18 why should they have to pay adult fares whilst still in education?

This petition closed early because of a General Election
