NEGLIGENT DRIVING.
PEDESTRIAN AWARDED DAMAGES. Auckland, Last Night. Arising out of a collision at a street intersection between an oil motor waggon and light truck the jury in the Supreme Court awarded £SO general damages and £l2 medical expenses toi an elderly man named Edward Campton against the Vacuum Oil Coy. Campton was crossing the street when the collision occurred, and was seriously injured through being struck by the wreckage of the light truck. It was held that the driver of the oil waggon was negligent, the contention being that as the other vehicle was approaching from the right he should have given way to it.
