CAPSIZE OF MOTOR CAR
BEE CAUSES ACCIDENT. (By Telegraph. Press Association.) THAMES, Monday. A fortunate escape from serious injury was experienced by Mrs C. Clotworthy when motoring from Thames to Turua this afternoon. When near the Parawai railway siding a bee flew through the side curtains of the car and hovered about the driver’s head . She lifted a hand from the wheel to brush it aside, and the car ran off the road, and overturned in a drain, barely a foot away from a telegraph post. Mrs Clotworthy crawled to safety unhurt, except for a slight shock. The chassis of the car was badly twisted.
