DRINK AND MOTORISTS
“NO LENIENCY” SAYS A.A.A. “No leniency whatever should be shown to any person convicted of intoxication while driving a motor-car,” is the opinion of the Auckland Automobile Association, as expressed by the secretary, Mr. G. W. Hutchison, at a meeting of motorists last evenning. This sentiment was applauded by the hundreds of motorists present. Mr. Hutchison said that there were far too many accidents, and 23 persons were killed in Auckland last year. In his opinion 75 per cent, of all motor accidents are due to one of three main causes—excessive speed, cutting of corners and neglect to give signals.
