HC Deb 21 December 1938 vol 342 c2921W
Mr. Viant

asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been directed to the large number of motor accidents which occur during inclement weather when drivers are turning corners and their vision is blurred by the presence of moisture and dirt on the windscreen; and will he, as a contribution to greater safety, issue regulations requiring each vehicle to be equipped with dual windscreen wipers?

Mr. Burgin

I have no evidence which supports the suggestion made in the first part of the question, and therefore I could not justify amending the present Regulation in the way proposed.
