rr HE. provision of rear-facing fog lamps, , particularly on commercial vehicles, was suggested by Tory transport spokes-. j• man Sir . Martin Redmayne whenthe commons discussed the M6 crashe§ last: , week. These vehicles could also be sieoVided with .flashing light i for use, in the. event of a Multiple crash, said Sir Martin. _
He also put forward the idea that in emergencies only the centre lane of a motorway should be used and there should be no overtaktlig.
These suggestions would be taken into account and considered fully, replied the Transport Minister. A new rearlighting system could not he put into immediate effect, although the suggestion to .limit the use of the motorways to the centre lane was under consideration.
Mr. Fraser, Minister of Transport, who emphasized the part speed had played in the accidents, said he thought there was something in driving in convoy with no overtaking at all.
