Rejected petition: Enforce change at local waste management sites on vehicle classification
Rejected on
I would like the government to enforce the ruling around double cab pickup trucks as non-commercial vehicles at local waste management sites as many still class them as commercial vehicles, limiting usage at the sites to 12 visits a year
North Yorkshire council and hambleton council restrict visits to the waste management site in stokesley (and presumably others) to 12 visits a year if you have a commercial vehicle (understandable!) the government changes the classification of double cab pickup trucks as non-commercial. So the council should honour that at local waste management sites also!
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Decisions about access to waste management sites are a matter for your local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament.
