HC Deb 18 March 1935 vol 299 c835W
Dr. O'DONOVAN

asked the Minister of Transport whether instructions have been given to his examiners to note if candidates for driving licences can distinguish red from green lights with facility?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

An examiner is not required to subject a candidate to a specific test of colour vision, but under the Regulations he must be satisfied that the candidate is able to act correctly on all signals given by traffic signs.
