What the petition asks
I would like the Government to allow People who are not fluent in English to do a theory driving test in their native language.
There are many foreigners in the United Kingdom who are not fluent in the English language,Some of them are old and learning another language is almost impossible and some of them are trying to learn, but it takes a very long time, perhaps more than three or four years, and at the same time he needs to have a British driving certificate So that he can meet the needs of his family. And most of those people are refugees whose need a car that meets the needs of there families.
