DRIVING OF TAXIS
HIGH STANDARD EXPECTED (0.C.) CHRISTCHURCH, Friday "If many more of these taximen appear before the Court there will have to be a wholesale cancellation of licences," said Mr. A. A. McLachlan, S.M., when several taxicab drivers were charged with offences against the traffic regulations. One taxi-driver explained that as members of his calling were driving all the time it was impossible to avoid the making of occasional mistakes. "On the contrary," said the officer of the Transport Department who was prosecuting, "taxi-drivers get so much experience that they are expected to set an example to the rest of the community."
