HC Deb 16 February 1938 vol 331 c1886
71. Mr. Westwood

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is prepared favourably to consider making compulsory the use of chains by all motor vehicles in times of frost-bound roads with a view to reducing to the minimum accidents caused by skidding?

Mr. Burgin

No, Sir. I do not think that such a requirement would be practicable.
