...For The Duke
(New Zealand Press Association)
LONDON, June 19.
A learner-driver, Mr Harry Cooper, whose car was in collision with the Queen’s, said last night he would consider calling the Duke Of Edinburgh as a witness if he was prosecuted. Cooper was told by police yesterday that a charge of careless driving was being considered against him. Cooper said at his caravan home in Holyport,
Berkshire, last night: “If
I can get Prince Philip to court to try to establish my innocence, I certainly will. I will have to see a solicitor to see how you go about getting such an important person to court” The crash happened 12 days ago when Cooper turned right to enter the courtyard of the Rising Sun Hotel not far from his home. The Duke of Edinburgh was driving the other ear with the Queen as a passenger.
