HC Deb 27 June 1939 vol 349 c232W
Sir G. Mitcheson

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will take steps to remove the ambiguities as to the rights of pedestrians at controlled and uncontrolled crossings?

Captain Wallace

The rights and obligations of pedestrians at controlled and uncontrolled crossings are indicated on page 23 of the supplementary notes in The Highway Code. Advice to pedestrians as to the use of controlled crossings is included in paragraphs 96, 98 and 99 of the Code. The instructions in the Code seem to me to be clear but I will see whether they can be improved.
