Allow driving lessons and tests to continue as normal
Rejected

What the petition asks
We want driving lessons and tests to continue. People have spent their money on lessons and tests already which is unfair for them as they’re getting cancelled.
There’s already delays for theory tests and practical tests. Causing another lockdown and not allowing these to continue will create even more delays.
Enforce masks and hand sanitiser before every lesson so there’s less chance of transmitting covid, especially with the fact there’s minimal contact in a car.
