CHEAPER TO BUY LIGHT
ADVICE FROM THE MAGISTRATE CYCLIST BEFORE THE COURT That it was cheaper to purchase a light for a cycle rather than pay a fine to the court was pointed out by the Magistrate, Mr W. H. Freeman, S.M., in the Paeroa Court on Monday when two young men, Bruce George Wilson and Richard Keith Locke, appeared before him charged with rid- r
ing their cycles along Behnont road, Paeroa, on April 3 at approximately 11 p.m. without lights.
In convicting and discharging both young men, ordering them each to pay costs 12s, the Magistrate pointed out that cycles without lamps were a danger both to the cyclist and to other members of the general public.
