§ 63. Sir G. FOXasked the Home Secretary how many summonses have been issued against pedestrians for loitering on pedestrian crossing-places in the London area since the latter were instituted?
§ Sir J. GILMOURNo summonses have been issued against pedestrians for remaining on pedestrian crossing-places longer than necessary for the purpose of crossing the road with reasonable dispatch. Up to the end of February, however, 11,210 verbal warnings were given in this connection.
§ Sir G. FOXDoes this not show that the Government intend only to prosecute motorists and not pedestrians?
