§ 61. Mr. Clive Bossomasked the Minister of Transport if he will lay down a new standard pattern to cover brightness as well as design of rear lighting and reflectorised signs, for use on all commercial vehicles, to ensure that such signs indicate the size and shape of the load.
§ Mr. Tom FraserCommercial vehicles are required to have rear lights and reflectors fitted in positions which indicate their width: an additional lamp must be carried on any load projecting more than 12 inches laterally. I am considering whether vehicles should be required to comply with higher standards for the brightness of rear lights.
