EFFORTS TO REDUCE ROAD CASUALTIES
ORIGINAL SUGGESTIONS IN HOUSE OF LORDS LONDON, December 8. Original suggestions for dealing with what the Bishop of Winchester (the Rt. Rev. C. F. Garbett) described as “intolerable cads on roads” made in the House of Lords included proposals that habitual offenders known to the police should be watched and followed wherever they went, an appeal by the Archbishop of Canterbury (Dr Cosmo Lang) to the country that “we will not have this killing,” and a suggestion that no one under 25 should drive unless necessary for his livelihood. It was decided that a Select Committee should be appointed to consider steps to reduce casualties on the roads.
