What the petition asks

Thousands of people haven’t been able to get their driving license due to Covid. Allowing tests to continue immediately from April 1st will get people ready for when the country re-opens.
Public transport is more of a risk then taking a driving test. But at the moment the Government have said driving tests will restart on 22 April 2021 at the earliest.
