Raise the maximum weight limit for Light Goods Vehicles to 3750kg. - 145 Signatures

(Estimated Final Signatures: 208 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)

We would like the Government to increase the maximum weight of Light Goods Vehicles from 3500kg to 3750kg, as we think the regulations around weight limits were set decades ago, vehicles produced nowadays are safer and average curb weights have increased.
