New Lighting Rules Criticized by Lucas

I N calling for only .1 candlepower per foot-candle for reflectors, the Ministry of Transport has proposed a value that is barely adequate. This opinion was expressed by Dr. J. H. Nelson, chief lighting engineer of Joseph Lucas, Ltd., at the Lucas agents and traders' conference at Torquay on Tuesday.
Both British and American vehicles, he said, were being equipped with reflectors giving about 3 candles from reflectors of about the same size as required by the new regulations. Larger reflectors, giving 10 times this figure, could afford a substantial margin of safety, he added.
On the subject of rear lights, Dr. Nelson, whilst welcoming the new regulation concerning the fitting of two rear lights, criticized the specification of 6 w. It was not wattage that mattered, he said, but intensity of light and even doubling the wattage would not help significantly.
