HC Deb 27 January 1943 vol 386 c517W
Sir J. Mellor

asked the Attorney-General whether he will identify any regulations under statutory authority which relieve drivers of service motor vehicles of civil obligations?

Mr. Noel-Baker

I have been asked to reply. The following regulations relieve the drivers of service vehicles from certain requirements relating to the driving of vehicles on the roads:—

  1. (1) Defence Regulation 72.
  2. (2) The Motor Vehicles (Variation of Speed Limit) Provisional Regulations, 1940.

There are other regulations which exempt service vehicles from certain requirements as to the use of vehicles, the observance of which is to some extent a responsibility of the driver.
