RIGHT-HAND RULE
TWO PROSECUTIONS
"It's bad enough to be knocked down on: the road, let alone the footpath, said a pedestrian in evidence in. the Magistrate's Court today, when William Hill was charged with failing to give 'way to traffic approaching on the U Sub-Inspector C. E. Roach said that failing to give way forced Hill on to the footpath, where he knocked over the pedestrian. The defendant was fined 20s and costs by Mr. E. D. Mosley, S.M. . "This man has written to the Clerk of the Court saying that he has been driving for 20 years and that he did not know that there was a right-hand rule," said Mr. Mosley when William Francis Everest Easton was charged with failing to give way. "He apparently does not read the newspapers," said Sub-Inspector Roach. A fine of 20s and costs was also imposed in this case.
