NEGLIGENT DRIVER
EIGHTEEN MONTHS’ GAOL [ Per Press Association. ] WELLINGTON, Oct. 21. “These offences in connection with motor-cars are very serious when death ensues, and it is necessary that substantial punishment should be imposed,” said Judge Reed when imposing eighteen months’ hard labour on Teki Hina for drunkenness. He added to his offence because a person under the influence of liquor had no right to get into a car at all. Prisoner’s driving licence was cancelled for three years.
