BAN ON BULL BARS

That this House considers the fitting of unnecessary bull bars to the front of vehicles as a dangerous fashion accessory which should be banned; recognises that organisations such as the RAC estimate that bull bars contribute to 70 fatalities on our roads a year; welcomes the resolution of the European parliamentarians to secure an agreement with motor manufacturers to ban the addition of bull bars on new vehicles from this year; and calls on the Government to introduce regulations to ban these kind of vehicle adornments as part of the annual MOT.
