Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Require all cyclists to have third party liability insurance

I would like the Government to require all bicyclists to have third party liability insurance, in case of accidents.

More details

As a driver I have had so many near misses with bicycles, when cycling on pavement some cyclists do not slow down when coming up to a crossing, and nearly hit cars. Car drivers are required to have insurance to cover claims for personal injury and/or property damage should they cause an accident. I believe all cyclists should similarly be required to have insurance to cover any damage their negligence might cause.

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
