Parliamentary review of speed limits for vans under 3.5 tons on UK roads

Closed 379 signatures

What the petition asks

It has been a long standing issue that vans are expected to do less speed on dual (60mph) and single carriageways (50mph).
These rulings were brought about when vehicles weren't made to the standard they are now and require updating to meet current vehicle design criteria.
