Politician Lee Dillon is continuing his campaign to improve road safety for riders hacking a horse by presenting a public petition in the House of Commons, backed by MPs from across Parliament.The petition calls for stronger legal protections and improved driver awareness. It urges the Government to embed equestrian safety in driving tests and to strengthen driver education.The move builds on Mr Dillons wider campaign, which has already included a Westminster Hall debate and Early Day Motion, and the introduction of a Private Members Bill on horse and rider road safety.Presenting the petition, the MP for Newbury highlighted ongoing risks faced by riders due to dangerous driving and lack of awareness.This campaign is about persistence, and about continuing to push until we see real change, Mr Dillon said. I have already raised this issue in Parliament, but the reality is that too many riders are still being put at risk on our roads. I continue to hear from people across the country individual riders, campaigners, organisations, and communities all sharing their experiences. This is not going away, and it is certainly not confined to Newbury.The petition has been supported by MPs such as Helen Morgan, Helen Maguire, Tim Farron, Jack Rankin, Steve Darling, John Milne, and Liz Jarvis.Its encouraging to have support from colleagues across Parliament, added Mr Dillon. This is not a partypolitical issue, its about safety.We need clearer rules, better education, and stronger enforcement to prevent accidents before they happen.I will keep working with campaigners, residents, and colleagues to ensure this issue stays firmly on the agenda.Mr Dillon has confirmed he will continue pressing ministers for action as part of his ongoing campaign.Lead image: Your Horse Library/Lucy MerrellRelated contentThis is why wearing the colour red could play a part in safer hackingCould not wearing high vis leave horse riders liable in a road accident?
