RIGHT-HAND RULE
“Notice In High Quarters” The principle of the absolute right-hand rule now seemed to be getting some notice in high quarters, said Mr L. W. Broadhead, president of the Automobile Association (Canterbury), when its council on Thursday. Disappointment was expressed by several members at the Automobile Association (Southland) having “stymied” the South Island Motor Union's support for the absolute right-hand rule (expressed through its executive committee to the joint standing committee of the North and South Island Motor Unions). This had been done by the Southland association’s giving notice of motion to reverse the S.I.M.U.’s view at its next half-yearly meeting.
Mr E. R. Casbolt queried the legality of Southland's action, but Mr E. C. Champion said that it was following normal procedure. “If Southland’s motion is washed out at the half-yearly meeting, that’s an end of the matter.” he said.
Mr Casbolt: They have stymied it for six months. Mr E. S. Palliser (secretary): The absolute righthand rule will come. The New Zealand Traffic Institute will get it through while the S.I.M.U. is arguing about it.
