§ Mr. PYBUSThe traffic commissioners are concerned only with motor omnibuses and coaches, and I have not received any report from them in this matter. It is reported in the Press that fines amounting to £45 with £10 10s. costs were imposed at. the Clerkenwell Police Court on this firm last month for offences under Section 19 of the Road Traffic Act, 1930, in connection with the running of a lorry between London and Birmingham.
