Mar. 20, 1954 - New road safety glove. A road safety glove with a light in the right hand gauntlet has been designed so that motor cyclists hand signals can be seen at night. A small bulb lights on contact between the tip of the thumb and forefinger. A small battery, lasting about 2-3 months is concealed in the gauntlet and can replaced for a few pence. The glove is being patented by the makers, I and R. Morley, Ltd, of Worcester, and the gloves are to be sent to the leading motoring authorities for their comments. They cost about ?3.15.0 a pair.
