Description: This film shows scenes of the types of vehicles on the roads of Britian and how they are used - all culminating in a large increase in traffic and problems caused by a build up of traffic. Piccadilly circus is shown and the trouble pedestrians have in crossing a busy road. There is a sequence in traffic with horns and fast cuts between cars. 'The motor vehicle has become an indispensable part of modern life and there is no going back' - the film states and ends in the statement that 'we control the motor or the motor controls us'. The film was made by Peaen Films and directed by Philip S. H. Mottram for the Town Planning Department.
