HC Deb 12 June 1928 vol 218 cc798-9
28. Mr. ALBERY

asked the Minister of Transport whether he proposes to take any further steps to safeguard pedestrians, especially in rural areas, by making more widely known any existing rules of the road; and whether he will consider obtaining the co-operation of the British Broadcasting Corporation towards this end?

Colonel ASHLEY

I am always glad to receive any suggestions for minimising the dangers arising from road traffic, but, so far as I am aware, accidents to pedestrians are not commonly caused by a lack of knowledge of the rules of the road, either on their part or on the part of the drivers of vehicles.
