What the petition asks
1.Starting in driving schools by ensuring there is more attention on teaching safe driving on motorways and dual carriage ways. We think that driving on these types of roads requires techniques that are not well emphasised by current training methods.
Improvement could be achieved if new drivers would be taught of correct speed selection, acceleration and keeping left when not overtaking.
2.Improving existing roads by installing more signs to remind drivers of simple rules such as:
-Keep left when not overtaking (middle lane hogging)
-Keep your distance
