Pause the rollout of driverless taxi services in the UK — 7 signatures. Status: rejected.
Pause the rollout of commercial driverless taxi services until independent assessments of safety, employment, congestion and public impact have been completed and debated by Parliament.
Driverless taxi services could have a significant impact on employment, with thousands of taxi and private hire drivers at risk of losing their livelihoods. We are also concerned about safety in busy UK towns and cities, particularly around pedestrians and cyclists, and the potential for increased congestion. The Government should pause commercial rollout until these issues have been independently assessed and debated by Parliament.
