SPIRIT OF THE
DELMARVIA PRESS
ARE AUTOMOBILE
DRIVERS PRIVILEGEDg

From the Harrington Journal.
Why anybody should think that be-
cause he is driving a motor car he
is privileged to order other people out
of his way, especially people on foot,
is a mystery beyond solution, and
yet the privilege is claimed innumer-
able times every day. and its assump-
tion is made the more offensive by
the peculiarly harsh and discordant
sounds by means Of which it is as
serted. For some OF the milder horns
there is an occasional use that is
legimate. but these are so few and un-
important. and the improper uses are
so numerous and so outrageous. that
almost without question both public
decency and public interest would be
served il the carrying on any auto
mobile Of any implement whatever,
the designed object of which was to
make a noise. we're prohibited by law
and the law sternly enforced.
The horns in all probability cause
more accidents" than they prevent.
for insolently loud as are the COM
mands issued to pedestrians through
them. obedience cannot always be as
prompt as the makers Of the noises
expect If the automobilists had TO
pick their way as other people do
they would soon learn, perforce, that
there is nothing in their licenses to
justify them in consulting only their
own haste and convenience. They
should realize that teams and pedes-
trians cannot turn from the roadway
as quickly as an automobile, and
they have as much right on the road.
