Make insurance for young drivers cheaper
Rejected
13 signatures
What the petition asks
Insurance for young drivers is anywhere up to £1000 or above and it's simply not affordable for most people who work for minimum wage
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
The cost of car insurance is a decision for insurance companies to make, rather than the Government or Parliament.
You could start a petition asking for tighter regulation of car insurance costs, or asking the Government to work with insurance companies to lower the costs. We already have two petitions open on the site about these issues. You might like to sign one of them. You can find them here:
Regulate car insurance companies over cost of car insurance
Enforce equal and nondiscriminatory insurance policies for young drivers.
