Many of the horses employed by the Wellington Municipal Milk Department for its roundsmen are so intelligent that they move from point to point without a driver, as he delivers the bottled milk. Generally speaking, there is no great harm in this but on a recent occasion a horsedrawn vehicle, moving slowly along the narrow Worser Road in the darkness, kept to the middle of the road. An approaching motorist, not realising that the vehicle was driverless, blew his horn and kept on, with the result that he narrowly escaped collision. By using the side channel he just managed to scrape past.
