HC Deb 29 November 1927 vol 211 c259
37. Sir FRANK NELSON

asked the Minister of Transport whether legislation making it necessary for push bicycles to carry rear lights will be undertaken before Christmas?

Colonel ASHLEY

As my hon. Friend is aware, the Road Transport Lighting Bill, which would make it obligatory for pedal cyclists to carry either a red rear lamp or a red reflector, has passed Report stage in this House. I hope that sufficient time will be available for the Third Reading to be taken at an early date, and for its consideration in another place this Session.

Mr. HARRIS

What is a push bicycle?

Colonel ASHLEY

A bicycle pushed by a foot.
