AUTOISTS DON'T OWN RQ
Should Take Cairo to *IflWi
Right's of the Other Fellow
The following is the text of Hie floor
, judge Lewle' judgement in a recent case
I tried in the ;seventh Division Court of the
County of Huron, to which the parties
were Jame McDonald, pleintiff, and
George Cardno, defendant,
.ltinestemeT
The evidence shows defendant's auto
was traveling behind the plaintiff's autp
in the middle of the road. The road Was
twenty-one feet wide. Geing up Bannock*
burn hill between Brucefield and Varna,
heading west, defendant Pulled to the left
side of the road and noticed plaintiff's
car slowing down. Plaintiff's car stalled
Defendant trying to pass on the left side,
ran into plaintiff's car and occasioned the
damage in question. Defendent after-
wards got into his car and posed up the
MU. Plaintiff's car was not moved by
the impact and while there other cars
passed oh the left side. There was eight
feet from. plaintiff's car to the ditch, of
good road, Defendant blew his horn be-
fore the accident but plaintiff said he did
not hear it and defendant said plaintiff
gave no evidence of having heard it.
A car following another car bee a right
to pass the car in front but should fit
give notice and enable other car to pull -
off the road. Where a car tries to pass •
the car in front it must make sure there
is ample room and it is responsible if
there is not. In this case there wag
plenty of room and defendant is respon-
sible for the accidettt. A car following
another car should follow at bush a speed
that it can be stopped at any time if the
car in front stops, There are many
reasons why a car may be stepped iin-'
avoidably and suddenly and the car fel-
lowing must be far enough behind or go-
ing so slowly as. to be under control.
. The evidence as above summarized •
clearly points tothe cause of this ace '
cident. The deteedant was driving too
close to the pleintiff. He knew or should
have known the car might stop suddenly
-
or stall without the driver being able to
warn anyone coating behind. It was
therefore his duty to be on the alert and
have his car fully under control so if sud-
den contingency arose, as it did here, he •
would be in a position either to "stop his
car or turn to the left to pass the plain- '
tiffs' car without being in such a. position
as he found himself so close to the plaint-
iff's car that he was .compelled either to •
run into it or attempt to turn out and
dash•past. He chose the latter course
and, as might naturally be expected, he -
ran into and injured the plaintiff's car.
It was fortunate that the injuries were no
worse. The occupants of both cars,
amongst .whom were ladies and children.
might have been seriously injured and the
consequences very grave. I can't help
stating here that this should be a warning
to all car drivers. You don't own the
roads. You have, like others, a right to
use the roads but in doing so you should
take care, in fact it is your duty to re-
member the other, fellow. If drivers
could only get this idea firmly fixed in
their minds accidents Would not happen
and people who usethe roads lawfully for
either business or pleasure wotild be able
to do so with some degree of comfort.
The reckless or careless driver must be
taught to be careful not only for his own
safety but for that of others.
Again remarking that it is very fortun-
ate that the accident was not more ser-
ious. I have eo hesitatiori in giving
judgement for the plaintiff for- the dann-.
ages incurred with costs to be paid in
fourteen days, H. J. D. Cooke, solicitor
for plaintiff, H. S. Hays (Seaforth), sol-
icitor for defendant —Star. -

It Pays To Advertise
A Wingham lady lost a string of bells
while driving home from Teesweter about
a month ago, She did not think it worth
while advertising them because that the
finder would in all probability never re-
turn them. However, she put tr small 25
cent advertisement in Taxi ADVeketcle,
last week and on Saturday, Mr. las.
Porter brought it the bells. He had, for
some time, inquired of alt his neighbors
and friends. There are plenty of honest
people in the world. If you lose some-
thing spent a quarter to advertise for it,

Will find it for you.
