Cyclists must complete CBT training before using the road.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Cyclists must complete the Compulsory Bike Training Certificate before allowed on the road. For the safety of pedestrians, other road users and the cyclist.

This must be made law and be an offence not to have this certificate when using the road. The same as it is for motorbike and moped riders. The test must be completed every 2 years to keep up to date with training. Compulsory Bike Training Certificate will save lives.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you want cyclists to be required to undertake training to be able to cycle on the roads, but we're not sure if you want cyclists to be required to take the existing CBT (Compulsory basic training for motorcycle and moped drivers) or a new course.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
