§ Mr. Gledhillasked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the increasing road accidents due to black-out conditions, he will instruct local authori- 988W ties to renew white lines more often, and to mark dangerous crossings, corners, etc., with reflecting studs?
§ Captain WallaceI have no power to instruct local authorities as suggested by my hon. Friend, but the officers of the Ministry have not failed to impress upon authorities the need for the efficient maintenance of white lines and to urge the extended use of reflecting studs in situations where the additional expenditure can be justified.
