§ Mr. Biggs-Davisonasked the Minister of Transport what was the result of the consideration given by the Road Safety Committee at their last meeting to banning the use of horns in built-up areas.
§ Mr. MarplesThe Committee's view was that it would not be in the interests of road safety to ban the use of horns in built-up areas and it recommended against the adoption of the Wilson Committee's recommendation on this subject.
It has, however, suggested that it might be desirable to give advice on the proper use of the horn in the Highway Code; this suggestion will be considered when the next revision of the Code is prepared.
