MUCH MORE accommodation would be needed for lorry drivers from next January when the eight-hour driving day became law—provided we stayed in the Common Market. This was a point made by Mr Leslie Huckfield (Labour, Nuneaton) during a Commons discussion about refreshment and rest facilities available for drivers on motorways.
