HC Deb 22 October 1968 vol 770 c275W
Sir R. Russell

asked the Minister of Transport how many collisions have occurred on motorways as a result of vehicles crossing the central reservation since the first motorway was opened.

Mr. Marsh

This information is not available. However, during a four-year study of sections of M1, M10 and M45 between 1962 and 1966, about 2 per cent. of accidents were of this type.

Sir R. Russell

asked the Minister of Transport how many drivers have been prosecuted for careless or dangerous driving following accidents to vehicles on motorways; and how many have been convicted.

Mr. Marsh

I regret this information is not available.
