Petition Action

Stop the ban on young drivers driving at night

Petition Details

Young motorists could be banned from the road at night if plans for probationary driving licences are approved.

Theresa May said yesterday that the Department for Transport would review the case for a “graduated” licensing system that imposes restrictions on drivers depending on experience.

Additional Information

Figures show that young drivers — those aged 17 to 24 — make up about 7 per cent of licence holders but are involved in more than a quarter of crashes leading to deaths or serious injuries.

How are young people going to get to work. This could affect thousands of young adults jobs forcing them to find another job. I work night shifts how do they expect me to get to work. If you agree with me that this should not happen please sign this petition and stop them from being allowed to do this.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

There isn't a current ban on young drivers from driving at night. We're therefore not sure what action you want the Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the Government not to introduce a graduated licensing system, if that's what you want to happen.
