PEDESTRIANS AND MOTORS.
(To tbe Kditor.) Pir, —On more than one occasion recently, when walking at a reasonable pace acros-s a road I have been nearly knocked down by a motor car. If the driver of an approaching motor car blows the horn, docs that plane an obligation on a pedestrian crossing a road to have to run, or possibly jump out of the way, to escape personal injury? Should the driver of any vehicle give a pedestrian the chance to cross the street at the pace at which he or she is moving, or ia the toot of the horn a legal notice to sprint or be run over? —I am etc., INTERESTED.
