HC Deb 21 September 1939 vol 351 c1080W
Sir I. Albery

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will consider imposing a 20-mile speed limit within 1oo yards of the approach of all cross-road traffic lights?

Captain Wallace

I do not think that my hon. Friend's proposal would serve a useful purpose. Drivers are already fully aware of the importance of the strict observance of traffic signals, and that failure to obey them is a punishable offence.
