STICKERS FOR CARS
Use On Windows Not Favoured Stickers reading “Safety Demands Sober Drivers” offered to the Christchurch Metropolitan Road Safety Committee by the Australiasian Temperance Society for use in cars and garages were a matter for individual members’ consideration, it was decided at a meeting of the committee last evening. The stickers, priced at 6d each were not generally favoured by the committee for placing on the rear windows of cars. “It is a distraction to have stickers, advertisements, jingling golliwogs or anything else on rear windows and this large sticker would moreover obscure the driver’s view,” Mr H. G. R. Sedgley. who represents the Windsor Motor Club, said. “My association would not support it’s use in cars,” said Dr. R. G. Mathison of the Automobile Association (Canterbury). The slogan was an admirable one, said Mr D. L. Hogan, District Officer of the Transport Department, but it would be better placed in garages or places other than vehicles.
