CYCLING AT NIGHT
LAMP BATTERIES SHORT “While it is unthinkable from the safety point of view that cycling at night without lights can be allowed, the problem is a difficult one. and I am afraid that you people who ride bicycles will have to use the trams at night until you can get batteries.” said Mr. E. C. ‘Levvey, S.M., at Christchurch when convicting and discharging a defendant. “Cyclists cannot get batteries at the present time, and I just don’t know what to do with these people,” the magistrate told Senior-Sergeant J. Bickerdike, who was prosecuting. “We are placed in an awkward position as well,” replied the seniorsergeant Candle lamps or kerosene lamps were also not available, said the magistrate.
