This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for.


This is the responsibility of retailers at service stations, not the Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition asking Parliament to change the law, to require employers of HGV drivers to pay allowances for food and drink consumed during legally-required rest stops.
