Riding instructors … remember. You have until tomorrow to tell the government what you think of the test regime and potentially apply pressure to bring about a change in legislation.
As reported here previously, the new Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency appears willing, presumably if enough people in the industry request it, to set up bike-focused surgeries across the country at which trainers would have the chance to raise concerns about the complexity and cost to potential bikers of the present regulations.
The opportunity comes in an online survey about users’ day-to-day experience of the now defunct DSA. The DSA merged with VOSA to become the DVSA. The survey closes on 14 February.
The survey is aimed at Approved Training Bodies (ATB), motorcycle trainers or both.
As well as general questions about the quality of service provided by the DSA, instructors are asked whether they would attend “bike-focused surgeries” if they were held at test centres in their area and, if they did attend, what issues they would be likely to raise. Among the tick-box options for likely issues to be raised is “Changes to legislation”.
