Petition

Ban private companies buying driving tests and selling them for a higher price

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

To make it illegal for companies to buy car and motorbike driving tests and then sell them at a higher price.
Driving tests currently cost £62 but due to private companies buying out all the slots and then selling them on for £200+ per test it’s making it near impossible to get a test at the normal price anywhere local to where you live.
