Clear discrimination effecting your rights as a road user. Set by a council.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Courts in the UK are independent of Government and Parliament, so we can’t accept petitions asking for court judgments, including injunctions, to be overturned.

You could raise your issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them:
