FOR DRIVERS The Ministry of Public Works is asking that in the future, in the event of a fine issued to cars by the police, the latter be entitled to the 1 fr. 25 gratuity that is granted to them for all other fines. For cars, they received nothing. We are no doubt hoping to encourage them to issue more fines. This measure should have as a corollary the absolute elimination of the theft fine. The police generally go in pairs. They should go 100 meters from each other. If the first does not get the vehicle to stop, let him whistle, the second will do what is necessary (by hurrying, because 100 an hour...). It should also lead to the elimination of speed limits that are absolutely fanciful and impossible to control by determining the right to stop. It is not because a car is going fast that it is dangerous, it is because it cannot stop in time. AGAINST RAIN. Rub the ice with a piece of dry Marseille soap; then wipe, leaving a light layer of soap. The rain will spread out in a uniform layer and will no longer obstruct vision. The Highway Code had granted motorists a period, expiring on June 1, 1924, to comply with the decree setting the conditions imposed on the lighting of motor vehicles. |
