What the petition asks

Require car drivers who knock a motorcyclist off their bike from behind then they should re-sit a driving test.
We feel there doesn’t seem to be any consequences when a car driver knocks a motorcyclist off their bike from behind when they are sat at traffic lights and junctions.
