At the twentieth annual conference of the North Island Motor Union, over which Mr. W. A. O’Callaghan presided, heavier penalties for persons unlawfully converting motor cars were urged. One delegate suggested that severe birching should be included. A protest was made against the Main Highways Board’s refusal to grant any exemption from the 40 miles an hour speed limit on gravel roads. The union reaffirmed its adherence to the principle that driving to the common danger should be the only offence of the sort under the law.
