The Scottish Parliament is in recess from 28 June to 31 August. We will respond to petitions as soon as we can.
If your petition is seeking emergency action or an urgent policy change, we would advise you to contact one of your 8 MSPs or the Scottish Government directly. Please be aware that the public petitions process is a thorough and often lengthy process and is not designed to respond to emergencies.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Closed petition PE2013: Implementation of a National Dashcam Safety Portal
Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to introduce without delay a National Dashcam Safety Portal, as already agreed by Police Scotland.
Previous action taken
I have been advised by an MSP's caseworker to submit this petition after contacting the MSP about this issue.
Background information
A National Dashcam Safety Portal for drivers and other road users to submit examples of dangerous driving has already been agreed and a budget for it provided to Police Scotland in March 2022. However, so far it has not been set up nor has information been offered to citizens on why it has not been implemented. This petition asks Members and Ministers why Police Scotland's own initiative has stalled.
