HC Deb 19 May 1965 vol 712 c239W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Minister of Transport if he will introduce legislation to compel individual drivers to be insured instead of the vehicle.

Mr. Tom Fraser

There is no legal obstacle to the voluntary adoption by insurers of my hon. Friend's suggestion. The role of motor insurance as a factor in road safety would need further study before I could propose legislation to require such action.
