Hal Robson (born 16 August 1911 and died 2 July 1996) was a Canadian-American racing driver who was mainly active in the 1940s. He started in 3 Indianapolis 500 races between 1946 and 1948, but failed to finish any of them due to mechanical failures. He also unsuccessfully tried to qualify for the 1953 Indianapolis 500.
Robson was born in Canada, but also gained American citizenship in 1937. His older brother, George, was the winner of the 1946 Indianapolis 500 and was killed in a racing accident later that same year.
After the Indianapolis 500, Robson primarily raced on dirt tracks, having success in sprint car racing in the United States. He retired from racing in 1955, but continued to attend race events until the early 1990s.
