§ Mr. GROVESasked the Home Secretary the reasons why the driving licence of George Moore, No. 17,483, was endorsed on 3rd December, 1934, at Thames Police Court, notwithstanding the fact that the presiding magistrate imposed only a nominal fine as it was the man's first offence and did not order endorsement of the licence?
§ Sir J. GILMOURI understand that the defendant in question was convicted of exceeding a speed limit. Sub-section (1) of Section 5 of the Road Traffic Act, 1934, requires that particulars of such a conviction are to be endorsed on the defendant's licence unless for special 1159W reasons the Court thinks fit to order otherwise.
