Delivery drivers

Motion text

That this House notes the safety implications of speeding by delivery drivers on rural roads and the danger that this can cause to pedestrians, horse riders, school children, livestock and other road users, including farm vehicles and machines; appreciates the pressure put upon those drivers by delivery companies to meet often unrealistic deadlines; calls on their employers to demonstrate more flexibility and understanding of the logistics when driving on roads in rural areas; and argues that this should be taken into consideration when formulating delivery times and deadlines.
