Children on Roads.
Dear Sir,—ln answer to 44 Potential Juror’s” letter about children on the road, I myself am father of four, and I would not like to see one of them hurt. I don't know how many he has, but, after all, children are children and you can’t expect their minds to work as fast as a motorcar, or as mechanically. I myself have only a push bike but I only ride about walking pace where children are going to school. I think it only fair we should give way to them. He says he skidded to avoid a child. I say he shouldn’t have been going fast enough to skid where children are going to school. I would say a child to me is worth more than five minutes to a motorist.—l am, etc., CHILDREN FIRST
