CAR DRIVING AND COURTS
A total of at least 75 pqr cent of all charges
dealt with by Magistrate's Court in Godericll
has to do With infractions of the Highway
Traffic Act, it is indicated by the records: The
same pattern uhdoubtedly prevails throughout
the Province. In the County' of Iluron last
year 'there was a tot41 of 2,000 eharges under
this Act. The vast' majority of the Highway
Traffic A.et ,charges are 8ettled -out of court
before they are to bt' heard.

on the roads that 'you shouldn't do ---even just
a little bit -would be just too much: That will
