HC Deb 25 April 1983 vol 41 c217W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what instructions he has given driving examiners about the use of seat belts.

Mrs. Chalker

The instructions are that a driving examiner conducting an L test should wear a seat belt, unless doing so for the whole of or part of the test would endanger himself or any other person. Apart from this, an examiner is not to proceed with a test if he intended to wear the belt which complied with the requirements of the law, but was unable to fit it.
