Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can't accept petitions which call on the Government to stop individual companies operating. That's not something that the Government or Parliament can do.
If you would like the Government to change the way in which private hire firms are regulated, to address the problems you are concerned about, you could start a petition about that.
