What the petition asks

We want the DVLA to resume driving test for the critical care workers as soon as possible as driving is essential for their jobs

Majority of the critical workers require daily driving to discharge their duties , specifically, Nurses and Healthcare assistants travels to clients homes or hospitals for shifts
For convenience, driving is essential in reaching their clients but this has been jeopardised ever since driving tests are stopped/postponed following restrictions
Many people , including healthcare workers , are frustrated and have their driving tests cancelled severally by the DVLA
