Dec. 12, 1967 - The Motorway Ray Guns. To Switch On Fog Warning Lights: Ray guns are being used by the police of Leicestershire and Rutland on the M.I. Motorway - to switch on fog warning lights. When the mists come down, a patrol travels along the motorway, and as their car nears each set of lights, an officer leans out of the car, and without stopping, aims his ray gun at the switch-on cell, situated between the two lights, and fires, and on come the flashing lights. The ray guns send out a beamed radio signal which activated the fog light switch. Photo shows Motorway patrolman Robert Ellis, of Leicestershire Police Headquarters - leans onf of the car to aim his ray gun at the switch- on cell situated between the fog warning lights, on the M.I
