DVLA: Medical licence renewals: Allow all applicants to be made online

Closed 101 signatures

What the petition asks

There are huge delays with DVLA paper applications. Unless you have specific conditions medical license applications have to be posted.
It would be a lot more efficient to allow people to apply online, to avoid delays and have an easily traceable paper trail.

Because DVLA delays are affecting people’s livelihoods.
