HC Deb 26 July 1912 vol 41 c1516W
Mr. VINCENT KENNEDY

asked the President of the Local Government Board, if, in considering the use of motor-horns in London in regard to the safety of foot passengers, he will also, in the interest of the latter, consider the advisability of insisting that all motor and horse-drawn traffic be compelled equally to announce their approach by bell, whistle, or horn?

Mr. BURNS

A Bill would be needed to carry out the hon. Member's suggestion, and, looking to the representations that have reached me on the subject of motor-horns, I am not sanguine enough to expect that it would pass.
