Abstract:

A response to a discussion of the London-Brighton annual veteran car rally published in 'The Boneshaker' (The journal of the Veteran-Cycle Club). The term 'Red Flag Act' is one commonly, but wrongly used by the motor lobby of the 20th century to describe legislation restricting the speed at which motor cars could be legally driven prior to 1896.
