THANK YOU for the very full and fair account (CM, June 1, "Graded lorries mean finer treatment") by John Durant of the suggestions on freight in Transport Reform: Changing the Rules.

I have never believed that the conflict between the "environment" and "efficiency" is as inevitable as is sometimes suggested, and I am sure that freight operators would continue to give as good a service to their customers as they do now under revised rules which would allow lorries to be given preferential treatment in the performance of their essential task.
