Let Driving Instructors continue to work safely during lockdown

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

To override the ban of driving instructors being able to work safely in lockdown including key workers!
To reduce the already mounting debt (due to previous 4 month lockdown), anxiety and worry from driving instructors who are self employed with no income. To provide people with the opportunity to a vital life line of obtaining a driving licence for job prospects in this unprecedented time and to help vulnerable and elderly members of their family.
