MOTOR HORNS.
JUDGE AND COUNSEL DIFFER. [THE PRESS Special Ssxrlee.] AUCKLAND, November 4, When a truck driver was being cross-examined in tho Supreme Court to-day he admitted that he had not blown his horn when approaching a van driven by a man who was subsequently killed. slr Justice Reed (to counsel): Do yoii suggest that he should have done so?
Counsel: Certainly. His Honour said he,was absolutely against counsel on this point. It would be a perfect nuisance if trucks went down the street blowing their horns at every vehicle they passed He should certainly say he regarded defendant's neglect" to sound his horn as no evidence of negligence at all.
