Make driving lessons & tests essential

What the petition asks
Make driving lessons and tests essential. Especially for key workers. It would help a lot in our current situation with Coronavirus. We would be able to stay within our own small bubble inside our cars rather than using public transport or walking past other potential covid carriers.
With Coronavirus being around in today's world, people such as myself have been struggling to get a driving test booked. Even after being able to obtain a test date we get our test cancelled and moved back many months from the previous date we were told our test was originally meant to be on.
