THE TNREGULATED PEDESTRIAN.

Honolulu city Of considerable size seems to be
lacking in the regulation OF its pedestrians. When
the motor car was "few and far between" along our
streets, our pedestrians enjoyed the undisputed
right to the road" against all cOmers but since the
advent of the automobile in such numbers to con
gest traffic and necessitate the employing of traffic
directing officers the lot Of the Honolulu pedestrian
has not been an enviable one. norris his peace OF
mind likely to be promoted by some of the harsh
speeches passing auOsts fling at him. One would
judge, by the maledctiOns hurled at his head Occa-
sOnally that Of all the unregulatcd traffic factors.
the pedestrian is by far the most dangerous and the
most defiant.
That is because he has not beer regulated; that
is, he has not been regulated to understand that
any and all autOists have unquestOnabe right to
thrash along the streets of the city regardless of
the rights of any living thing that happens to be
foot 1t is just possible that if some of the drivers
had their way they would not let pedestrian cross
the street until they gave their approval.
But there are many other things that are also in
the unreguated class. For instance, there are
sharp corners which the speed burners fail to nego-
tate; then there those motorcycle cops at Kala
kaua avenue and other places about the city who
have acquired the really rad practise of "bumpng"
up against certain automobile parties and interior
ing with their plans; there are also miserable dogs
that will not hurry at the frantic blowing of the
horn, and once in while toddling infant gets
right in the way.
b. Everything else but the automobile seems to be
unregulated When will the Fedes TRAN be taught
to pay proper Difference to the notOr-car? )
