"Half a million miles without a single case of personal injury resulting from a collision," was the reply of the Auckland branch of the St. John Ambulance Association to allegations made by members of the Otahuhu Borough Council that ambulances travelled at "terrific" speeds through the borough. Mr S. E. Langstone, manager of the association, said that during the 13 years he had been associated with the Rutland street ambulance station the gradually-increasing fleet of ambulances had covered almost 500,000 miles, carrying patients to and from the hospitals. There had never been an accident resulting from speeding.
