Introduce student discount for fuel
As a college student who drives to college, I fill up my car with petrol around every 7-10 days. I am roughly putting in around £25-£30 every time. I am going to University in September and if I choose to commute (which may be the cheapest option), I will be driving 38.6 miles a day.
As a student who is doing a full time course which is very time consuming, finding a way to earn money is crucial to survive. I am aware there is student discount for using public transport, for shops, restaurants etc. but what about reducing the price of fuel? I am a strong believer that this could benefit a lot of students. Petrol is so expensive. Driving my own vehicle will give me the flexibility to work after lectures.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
This petition seems to be calling on companies which sell fuel to offer discounts.
If you'd like the Government or Parliament to act, you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could ask the Government to give students a grant or subsidy for fuel and/or other transport costs.
