A way couriers commit fraud is registering as a cyclist and still use vehicle. This could mean hundreds of pound "saving" each month and the risk for a police inspection is low and easy to dodge. Even if they get caught the economical damage is done and forcing honest law obeying workers out of the sector.

reduce clash with CEO and public too
boost last mile logistic efficiency
more income for everone

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're concerned about the cost of hire and reward insurance policies, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. The Government is not responsible for the cost of insurance, but we can accept petitions calling for changes to legal requirements for professional drivers to hold certain types of insurance.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
