HC Deb 09 October 1941 vol 374 c1133W
Sir I. Fraser

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether he will insist that cyclists carry a rear lamp and show a considerable white patch behind in such a position that neither the lamp nor the white patch can be obscured by the rider's overcoat?

Colonel Llewellin

All pedal cyclists are required to carry both a white patch with an image of not less than 12 square inches and a red rear lamp and these must be kept unobscured.
