Proceeding contribution from Earl Ferrers (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 July 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [HL].


Road Safety Bill [HL]

I am deeply grateful to the Minister for commending me on anything at all; I merely purchased something that was available. The only thing that worried me was that he said that I might have an instrument in my car that goes ““beep””; he then said, ““We are all against that””. This thing goes ““beep, beep, beep, beep, beep””, and it drives me mad. Once past the yellow camera, it starts up again because there is another one, but it tells you where the things are. The result is that you get so windy that you stick to the limit as far as you can. I hope I am right in believing that that is not going to be removed.
