Lorries (Jack-Knifing)

5.

Mr. Hastings
asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what progress the Transport and Road Research Laboratory has made with its trials on anti-jack-knifing equipment for articulated lorries; and whether he will make a statement.

Mr. Mulley
The field tests of anti-jack-knifing equipment for articulated lorries have been completed, and preparation of the report is well advanced. I expect to receive the report shortly.
