We think 50mph (single carriage) and 60mph (dual carriageway) limits are outdated ignoring modern vehicle safety, efficiency, and today’s economic needs potentially unfairly penalising our workforce.\r\n\r\nModern LGVs are equipped with advanced safety features, which we think can make them as safe as cars at higher speeds. We believe raising limits could reduce risky overtaking and improve logistics.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":7,"created_at":"2026-06-15T10:50:33.705Z","updated_at":"2026-07-14T13:18:40.263Z","rejected_at":"2026-07-14T13:18:33.100Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-06-15T19:03:00.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action:\r\nhttps://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/772351\r\n\r\nYou may also wish to sign this petition: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/766339"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
