Climate science deniers to give road safety evidence to MPs

Campaign group the Alliance of British Drivers wants higher speed limits and fewer cycle lanes

MPs are to hear evidence on road safety from a campaign group that dismisses warnings about global heating and wants higher speed limits and fewer cycle lanes, prompting alarm from environmental and active travel organisations.

The Commons transport committee will take oral evidence on Wednesday from the Alliance of British Drivers (ABD), which says it represents mainstream views but accepts its membership is tiny" as a proportion of drivers.
