Petition Action

Allow driving lessons taught by parents during lockdown

Petition Details

Allow parents or guardians to teach driving lessons during the lockdown period

Additional Information

On the official Government website it states that driving lessons taught by parents are not an essential journey. However, I and many others would argue that in a car, one is not exposed to the outside and is safe as long as the persons remain within the car.
