§ 42. Lieut.-Colonel Sir Mervyn Manningham-Bullerasked the Minister of Transport the number of accidents on the roads during the last three months in which motor-lorries and motor-cars, respectively, were involved?
§ Captain WallaceThe statistics which have been kept since the outbreak of war do not enable me to give the particulars for which my hon. and gallant Friend asks.
§ Sir M. Manningham-BullerDoes not the Minister think that these statistics would be worth collecting, in view of the number of occasions on which one sees lorries driven in an unsatisfactory way and no action is taken?
§ Captain WallaceMy hon. and gallant Friend will probably know that we are going to have sample investigations in certain selected areas, and I think that will give us valuable data on the subject.
