HC Deb 19 November 1928 vol 222 cc1405-6W
Mr. W. THORNE

asked the Minister of Transport whether any accidents have been reported which have been due to the increased speed rate of omnibuses and tramcars?

Colonel ASHLEY

My attention has not been drawn to any accidents attributable to the increased maximum speeds recently authorised in respect to certain classes of heavy motor cars fitted with pneumatic tyres. No general increase in the speed of tramcars has been authorised.
