Require all new vans without rear windows to be fitted with cameras

Closed 60 signatures

What the petition asks

Blind spots on vans without rear windows endanger vulnerable road users and drivers. We believe fitting mandatory reversing cameras would prevent accidents, protect lives, and make our streets safer.
Vans without rear windows have serious blind spots, which we believe puts children, older people, people with mobility difficulties, and drivers at risk when reversing. Fitting mandatory reversing cameras could prevent accidents, save lives, reduce stress for drivers, and make UK streets safer for everyone every day.
