Dear Constable: , The other day I witnessed -0 an accident between a parked car and a boy on a bicycle, and I really felt sorry for the young lad on the bicycle. The boy, . was riding his bicycle down the street when the driver opened his door right in front of the bicycle and the lad ran into the door. I don't think he was hurt too badly, but he was shaken up. Is there any law covering such things as this? ANS WER: Yes, there is. The fighway Traffic Act states, "No nperson' .shall open the door of a',motor vehicle on a highway without first taking due precautions to ensure that his act will not in- terfere with the movement of or endanger any other person or vehicle. " QU ES TION: Dear Sir: Do people really write you letters or do you make them up? ANS WER: Yes, people do write me let- ters, to name one, yourself. When this idea first started I used questions that had been , asked of officers when they were speaking at various, safety lect- ures. Even now, when the 'mail is slow, we will use questions that are asked of us at various meetings. QU ESTION: Dear Constable; I am getting up in years, and last year I received a notice tp renew my citivefir's licence, but .former members, many of 10Orn visited with friends after the. service.
