An incident not without its humourous side occurred in Cambridge on a recent afternoon, the principals; concerned being a Te Awamutu soicitor and the local traffic inspector. Having committed a breach oi ! the by-law the visiting motorist was highly indignant and demanded an explanation of the offence. > r 'l am a solicitor and I want to know what I have done wrong," said the visitor when approached by the inspector. Probably being a little nettled at the tone' of the visitor's remarks, the inspector replied that as a solicitor th«.> visitor should know that he had pulled up on the wrong side of the street. The motorist questioned the inspector's authority and only gave his name_ and address when the inspector convinced him of Ms offence by the aid of the local policeman. The visitor got oft with the first offender's warning.
