Ban the use of driver-facing cameras in HGVs and company vehicles
Ban the use of driver-facing cameras in HGVs and company vehicles. We think these cameras invade drivers’ privacy, breach data protection principles, and harm mental health without clear safety benefits. Only road-facing or external cameras should be allowed.

Mandate use of motorway cameras and technology to catch lane hoggers
The Government must ensure that cameras, sensors etc on motorways are used effectively to catch lane hoggers in the same way they are used to catch people who speed.
Require all new vans without rear windows to be fitted with cameras
Blind spots on vans without rear windows endanger vulnerable road users and drivers. We believe fitting mandatory reversing cameras would prevent accidents, protect lives, and make our streets safer.
Remove speed cameras from motorways to improve safety and fairness
We want the Government to remove speed cameras from motorways in England. There is strong evidence that they distract drivers, cause sudden braking and confusion when limits change, and increase accident risk. The focus should be on education and clear, consistent speed limits instead.
Make it illegal for DVLA to share vehicle keeper data with private companies
Make it illegal for the DVLA to share driver and keeper data with private companies. Drivers should not have their personal information released without consent, especially for use by private parking firms. DVLA data should only be provided to public authorities.
Ban HGV overtaking on motorways to help improve safety and traffic flow
The Government should introduce a ban on heavy goods vehicles overtaking on motorways, with exceptions only for passing stationary or broken-down vehicles. This should be supported by clear signage, effective enforcement, penalties, and alignment with road safety practices in parts of Europe.
