SPEED LIMIT ATTACKED
RATE ON MAIN HIGHWAY
OPINION IN CANTERBURY
By Telcgrapn—Press Association.)
CHRISTCHURCH, June 13. In a resolution criticising the sp-eed limit of 40 miles an hour on a certain section of the Main North Road, the Canterbury Automobile Association states that the North Road from the golf links beyond Kaiapoi right to the Ashley Bridge can be traversed in a- high-powered and properly-equipped motor-car with perfect safety at 45 tc. 50 miles an hour, providing the driver -slows down at intersections- and any other place where conditions render it necessary. It is claimed that with such a car there cannot be danger to the public merely because a driver travels along a straight and uninter sected stretch of bitumen or concrete even at 50 miles an hour.
