Help drivers with a class 2, get a class 1 licence
Due to recent changes made in driving tests, it is unfortunate for those who have paid a lot of money for there class 2 license,
It is now possible to go straight for class 1 and I know a lot of hgv drivers would have done this if it was possible before.
It is constantly over the media how there is a driver shortage. The fact that to little is done to late, has made the situation worse.
The government are the ones who can correct this, even if they do need guidance from the people they are "trying" to help.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about existing rules for getting a Class 2 licence, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
We have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:
Give Class 2 drivers a Class 1 licence without needing to take the test: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/596865
Scrap HGV theory test for PCV driver who already hold a full PCV licence.: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/598535
