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 Prioritise key workers for theory/practical driving tests

Communicate with the DVSA to prioritise key workers for theory/practical driving tests, helping the country to re-open and allowing these people to get to their place of work. Emergency service workers, shop workers, farmers etc. would all benefit from this (all of which are essential for society)

More details

This was allowed in the first lockdown, but has not been enforced since. This would remove people from the 400,000+ backlog of people waiting and would benefit the country no end

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
