Road Safety And Glow Power

EDM number 1696 in 1997-98, proposed by Andrew Miller on 26/10/1998.

That this House welcomes recent figures showing an eight per cent. fall in the number of children killed and seriously injured in road accidents, but notes with regret that Britain still has one of the poorest records for child pedestrian safety in Europe; believes that road safety remains a crucial issue of the first importance requiring a partnership of government, private sector, members of the public and honourable Members; supports the second annual Vauxhall Glow Power road safety campaign which was launched on 23rd October; welcomes Glow Power's innovative use of images which appeal to children in order to get the message across directly that 'it's cool to be seen'; welcomes the activities involved in the campaign, including the distribution of more than three quarters of a million reflective armbands, free headlight checks and a national schools poster competition; notes that Glow Power has won endorsement from the AA, the Association of Chief Police Officers and road safety officers; and urges all honourable Members to support local Glow Power activities that are taking place throughout the country and other road safety initiatives.

This motion has been signed by a total of 33 MPs.
