Letter: Linking vision to the driving licence

Thank you for raising the profile of the petition I started linking the provision of motor insurance to visual standards (Optician 21.04.17). Unfortunately, due to the general election and subsequent dissolution of parliament all open petitions have been closed. It is my intention to restart the petition after the election, sadly none of the signatures already posted will transfer to the new petition so, if you have signed the original please go back and sign again.

In response to the letter from Colin Fowler on a similar subject.

With regards to the lack of data regarding visual acuity and a link to motor accidents, I would question whether the lack of evidence is due to there being no link or because the evidence is not being collected.
