DUNEDIN MOTORIST
NOT A CASE FOR LENIENCY
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
DUNEDIN, This Day. Donald O'Hara, a motor salesman, was fined and prohibited from driving for six months for being intoxicated while in charge of a car.
In answer to a plea for leniency, the Magistrate said that the offence was aggravated by the fact that the defendant's occupation was selling cars, which involved much driving. It was a question of public safety, and no leniency could be shown.
