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're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

The UK Government has not committed to a ban on L-plate moped and motorcycle riders from performing commercial delivery work and domiciliary care work. The Government already launched a consultation on changes to moped and motorcycle training to improve road safety through better training.

In addition, it is already illegal to make deliveries without specialised courier insurance.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
