Petition Simplify the language in the driving theory test

Have a team of ESOL-trained editors review the driving theory test and simplify the language in the test. Make sure that the test is stripped of different words used to convey the same meaning, take out cases of passive language where it is not needed, and standardise sentence structures.

More details

The complexity of the language in the driver theory is a huge blocker for a range of learners, from refugees seeking asylum in the UK to dyslexic native and non-native English speakers.
