STOCK EXCHANGE TRAFFIC.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —Just over a your ago, at the time a stranger abroad in London, 1 incurred the displeasure of a London policeman on point duty by attempting to change my car’s direction by taking a right-hand* turn and going round benind the constable at the intersection. When stopped and reprimanded lor causing traffic congestion by such unnecessary and exaggerated manoeuvres, 1 successfully explained my ignorance of common-sense motoring by admitting that I was a visitor from New Zealand. Last evening, at 5.20, proceeding down Princes street from the south, I signalled my wish to turn right into Lower High street, and when given the “ come on ” signal, did so by innocently following the Castle street tram rails and passing in front of the policeman. The latter’s remarks left me in doubt as to whether London lias a lot to learn from Dunedin regarding traffic regulation.—l am, etc., Confused. February 8.
