This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you want cyclists to be required to undertake training to be able to cycle on the roads, but we're not sure if you want cyclists to be required to take the existing CBT (Compulsory basic training for motorcycle and moped drivers) or a new course.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
