§ Mr. J. H. Osbornasked the Minister of Transport if she will take steps, by legislation or otherwise, to make it illegal for drivers to overtake on motorways on the left.
§ Mr. Carmichael:No. The Highway Code already says that drivers must never overtake on the left on motorways. Advice and training are, we believe, more suitable means of dealing with this problem than legislation or further instructions at access points.
