What the letter termed “the dangerous nuisance of boys’ trolleys round about Marine Square” was a complaint of motor car proprietors investigated by the Devonport Borough Council. Councillors agreed (says the Auckland Star) as to the reality of the nuisance, which was not confined to the locality mentioned, but was general through the borough, and particularly bad along the concrete roads. The Mayor related an astonishing incident of a motor car which actually ran over a flat-top trolley, carrying a hoy. without harming the passenger. It was decided to refer the matter for police intervention.
