Start theory and driving tests from the 8th of March 2021

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

As all other forms of education are going back to normal I think it is important for all learner drivers to have the chance to take their tests, this is also unfair as taxi drivers are allowed to open which is more dangerous than taking these tests where you can wear all PPE
