VEHICLES AND LIGHTS
"The suburban authorities have displayed considerable vigilance in detecting excessive motor speeding, particularly when race meetings are held, but there is another direction in wliich such authorities might concentrate their activities, and that is in bringing to book thoso drivers of vehicles who do not cairy proper lights," writes a correspondent ("TJndimmed") to The Post. Tlie correspondent states : "At different hours of the night and in _ the early mornings, I have had occasion to visit the Hutt Valley. It is not an uimsiui.l experience to come suddenly on a trap <xr wagon without lights. What this means to travellers on the Hutt-road and in the streets of the adjoining boroughs is well known, and I vvould suggest that the suburban councils should transfer some of their enthusiasm for detecting the motorist in a hurry to^the vehicles not carrying proper lights."
