Reduce the Motability Drive Smart age limit from 30 to 25
I want the government to reduce the Motability Drive Smart age to 25 and under because Motability already allows access to certain cars at 25. It’s inconsistent to set 30 for Drive Smart. Aligning policies ensures fairness and equal access for all drivers.

Stop proposed changes to the Motability Scheme
The recent budget has announced taxes on advanced payments and a decrease in mileage allowances. We believe this is unfair to the most vulnerable in society and could affect their independence.
Reduce Vehicle Excise Duty by 50% for vehicles aged 20 to 39 years
Introduce a 50% VED reduction for cars aged 20–39. High taxes force functional vehicles to be scrapped, creating a "disposable" culture. Keeping existing cars is greener than building new ones, as it preserves embedded carbon. This "Young-Timer" bracket supports the circular economy and UK heritage.
Reduce age required for historic/classic vehicle status from 40 to 30 years
Historic/Classic vehicle status in the UK can be applied for when a vehicle becomes 40 years old, whereas many European countries allow this status to be applied for when a vehicle is 30 years old. We want to bring the UK rules into alignment with most of Europe.
Remove speed limits on motorways
We think it's about time the motorway speed limit was removed. Cars are safer than they used to be. We believe that driving at high speed is safer as you look at the road ahead far more.
Lower the age to apply for a driving licence and take driving tests to 13
I want the Government to lower the age at which people can sit driving tests and get a full driving licence to 13. I have always wanted to drive by a young age and a lot of other people do want to as well.
