Oral Answers to Questions — Transport. – in the House of Commons at on 12 December 1929.
asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that many bicyclists have either no red rear reflectors on their bicycles or else have them placed in a position where they cannot reflect the light; and whether he will take steps to enforce the law in the interests of the bicyclists whose lives are endangered by being invisible?

Will the right hon. Gentleman also send a letter round to the chief constables of all the counties?
I imagine the communication would in the first instance go to the chief constables.
Will the right hon. Gentleman also point out to the authorities that many of the reflectors cannot be seen at all?
