HAMILTON MOTOR ACCIDENTS.
THREE CARS DAMAGED
OCCUPANTS ONLY SLIGHTLY HURT
(By Correspondent.)
HAMILTON, this day.
A collision between a two-seater car, driven by Mr. Norman Rawson, solicitor, of Ngaruawahia, and a five-seater, driven by Mr. H. McCoskrie, of Whyte Street, Claudelands, and owned by Kidd, Garrett and Co., occurred at the west entrance of the Hamilton traffic bridge last night. There was a good deal of fog about at the time, and the two cars met in an almost head-on collision.
Mrs. McCoskrie, who was sitting with her husband in the front seat, received slight cuts and a bruise on one of her lege, while Mr. G. Morpeth, who accompanied Mr. Rawson, received a slight cut on the face. The two drivers escaped injury. Both cars were fairly badly damaged. While driving along Bridge Road last night, Mr. Clark, of Otorohanga, was dazzled by the lights of an approaching car, and in endeavouring to keep the side of tbe road ran over the bank and smashed the ear up badly. Mr. Clark's injuries were slight.
