Dear FOI,
As I thought you seem to be passing the question I asked
on to some one else I am aware of which you say I am entitled to drive on my driving license as when it was renewed it states can drive up to 125 cc motorcycle . But as I stated previously when I passed driving test it stated I can drive a 250 cc motorcycle the question again what gave you the right to bring this down to a 125 cc what law in the house of commons states this as I have researched this and no official law was enforced so again past test 45 years ago with entitled ride 250 cc motorcycle seems you are avoiding the question so can you please read this one and let me know why you changed my entitlement on my license regards
Yours sincerely,
David Turner
Dear FOI,
As I stated previously my driving license is a full licence when I passed my test in 1979 I was entitled to ride , a 250 cc motorcycle since my license has been renewed it now states I can ride a 125 cc motorcycle why has this changed as I always ride a 250 cc which I was entitled to drive when passed test. Please stop going round in circles as for some reason you have down graded me to smaller allowance
Yours sincerely,
David Turner
