Dust Trials at Brooklands Reveal Cars Raise Dust Little

The Dust Trials of the Royal Automobile Club at Brooklands show that tyres and speed disturb limestone dust. A horse and trap and a human powered bicycle moved little dust, while cars with broad pneumatic tyres raised dust even at low speeds. Trials tested devices to reduce dust, including a perforated underbody screen with forced draught and a wheel-dust collection apparatus, though no completely dustless solution emerged. About 200 official photographs documented the trials over two days.
