Easter Traffic

First broadcast: 30 March 1961

This news item includes a montage of the various modes of transport being used to escape for the holidays. This is followed by an interview with the Minister of Transport, who emerges from an ambulance to emphasise his points.

He is very worried about the high number of deaths on the roads (102 last Easter), but he assures viewers that a 50mph speed restriction won't be introduced until Whit week.
