MOTOR VEHICLES COLLIDE.
COURT CASE DISMISSED. The outcome of a collision on Great North Road early in May between a motor-bus and a three-seater motor-car, was the appearance in the Police Court yesterday of Thomas Charles Warner (Mr. Holmden) charged with negligently driving the bus. The driver of the motor-car, George Alberston Green, said that when he was approaching the bus it swerved to the right, then to the left and then to the right' again. The bus hit his car and damaged it considerably, two tyres being torn off. Defendant said he was dazzled by the brilliance of the motor-car's lights on the windscreen. He denied being on the wrong side of the road. In dismissing the case, the magistrate, Mr. F. K. Hunt, said the windscreens of buses should be let down at night.
