What the petition asks
According to the UK Law, an international driver can drive with their home license for 12 months only. Due to this Law, many of the individuals are struggling to drive in UK even for their essential needs in this pandemic situation as DVLA is delaying the test dates in order to obtain a UK license.
So until the individuals get their UK license, Government should alter the current regulation for a while, to help the international drivers in order to access their vehicles for work and other essentials needs.
