HC Deb 15 May 1964 vol 695 c137W
Commander Kerans

asked the Minister of Transport if he aware that some lorry drivers exceed the present statutory regulations, in some cases driving for 17 to 19 hours at a stretch; and, bearing in mind the dangers this presents to other road users, what new measures he proposes to take to prevent it.

Mr. Galbraith

I agree that the law is broken despite the enforcement efforts of the licensing authorities. The problem is difficult, but I am considering a number of lines of attack on it.
