What the petition asks
I want the government to alter the current driving license categories to allow PSV holders automatic right to a class 2 lorry licence. This is purely based on logic.
I currently hold a PSV (bus) license and with this license I can drive a 15 meter coach, but I cannot drive anything over 3.5 ton that isn’t a bus
