§ 69. Mr. Hardyasked the Minister of Transport if he will consider taking steps to give drivers of the three-wheeled invalid carriage licences to drive a four-wheeled invalid carriage where they have substantial experience of safe driving.
§ Mr. Michael HeseltineThe present driver licensing arrangements do not differentiate between three-wheeled and four-wheeled invalid carriages.
§ Mr. HardyIs there not an anomaly here? Is not the Parliamentary Secretary aware that a person who has driven a three-wheeled vehicle for 10 years without an accident is not regarded as being qualified for a licence to drive a four-wheeled vehicle?
§ Mr. HeseltineI am not aware of any anomaly in the application of this licensing system, but if the hon. Gentleman would like me to write to him on the matter, I will do so.
