EVADING BY-LAWS
CARRIER FINED For driving a motor-lorry on the Kihikihi-Arapuni Road with a load exceeding four tons, Charles St. Clair was fined £lO, and costs £1 11s. at the Te Awamutu Court on Thursday by Mr. Wyvern Wilson, S.M. The case was brought by the Waipa County Council. The county inspector found St. Clair on December 15 carrying manure. The lorry weighed tons and the load was three tons, the total thus exceeding four tons. St. Clair declared he would not offend again, but on December 17 St. Clair was seen in Te Awamutu with a similar load. On being questioned by the engineer, he replied that he was not going to take the load over a fourthclass road. He would take off the excess loading at Kihikihi, but later he found St. Clair several miles past Kihikihi on the road named. The limit on the Te Awamutu-Kihikihi Road was six tons, but on the Arapuni Road four tons.
