HC Deb 26 January 1959 vol 598 cc75-6W
Mr. Patrick Maitland

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether, in view of the accident which occurred on 1st January, 1959, at Peacockhill, near Lanark racecourse on the A.73 main road, he is satisfied that the safety precaution on and before the road-bend there is adequate.

Mr. Maclay

The road surface was icebound at the time of the accident and I am satisfied that under normal conditions no special measures are necessary.
