A2 motorcycle licences to upgrade to an A license automatically after 2 years

Closed 3,412 signatures

What the petition asks

To revert to the automatic update of an A2 license to a full A license after 2 years of riding.
This is instead of taking the same practical examination two times.

In the past, an A2 rider would wait for two years before automatically achieving a full unrestricted motorcycle license. I propose we now return to that scheme again.
