§ Mr. Rawlinsonasked the Minister of Transport what recommendations he has received with regard to the introduction or use of amber headlights to reduce dazzle when driving at night; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MarplesNo authoritative recommendation has been received advocating the use of amber headlights. Research so far shows that amber headlights have no advantage over white headlights of equal power and some disadvantage in range of visibility. The answer to the problem of dazzle lies in correct aiming of the beam. I am keeping in close 59W touch with the latest developments, international and other, on headlamp design.
