Closed petition Require local authorities to allow cab drivers to make Covid-19 adaptations

All UK taxi, PCO and Private Hire Drivers Must be allowed to take necessary measures to keep themselves and their passengers safe from Corona Virus.

More details

Drivers must be allowed to install a driver-isolation sheet in their cars for their own safety and for the safety of their passengers. Drivers should also be allowed to have no more than 3 riders.

Councils around the UK are preventing drivers from making changes to their vehicles and how they operate during the outbreak. The Government must stop this and require local authorities to allow cab drivers to take necessary Covid-19 measures.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
