HC Deb 21 June 1988 vol 135 c530W
Mr. Warren

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what are the upper and lower standards of illumination for lights on motor vehicles; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

The Road Vehicles Lighting Regulations 1984 require nearly all lights on vehicles to meet European standards of performance. These cover both maximum and minimum levels of intensity for a large number of individual types of light.
