MANY CHANGES IN AUTO LAWS
Car Owners And Drivers Should Ac-
quaint Themselves With New
Auto Laws

With December LIST, the opening day
for obtaining 1922 motor vehicle IL
censes and registrations not two
months off, Motor Vehicle Commission
er Dill has outlined several important
statute changes which he believes the
motorists should familiarize them
selves with Immediately. These new
laws are contained in Assembly Bill
No. 4S3, which becomes effective Jan
uary LIST and acts IS a repeater of 90,
old laws which are now on the stat
ute books.
In order that these changes may be
brought about with as little confusion
as possible, Mr. Dill intends inaugur-
ating several changes in the method
of conducting his various branch off
ces. A number of important changes
pertinent to obtaining licenses will also
be made at the same time.
One of the new laws which is liable
to cause misunderstanding unless 1t Is
clearly explained, in the opinion OF Mr..
Dill, is that which makes 1t necess-
arV to have an affidavit attached to
every application for drivers license
or a ear registration. That these atfl-
davits may be affixed without trouble
to the autoists. Mr.. Dill has had his
entire staff of inspectors made no
tary publics. They Will swear the car
owners at the time of an application
for license. There will be no fee
charged for taking the affidavit.
New Questions Every Week
Probably the chief innovation, not
contained in the new law is that affect
ing the examinations for drivers IL
censes Hereafter a new set of ques-
tons will be issued to the various eX-
animation points for every test, These
questions sealed at the Commissioners
office at Trenton will be sent direct
to the Inspector in charge Of the X
aminations. Each separate question
will be sealed and opened by the in
dividual applicant for the test.
When the examinations have been
completed they will be destroyed and
a new set prepared for the next eX-
animation day. By this method Mr..
Dill hopes to preclude any possibility
of cheating at the tests.
Seating capacity 5 or less, So
Seating capacity six and not more
than eight, $3.50.
Seating capacity nine and not more
than twelve, $50.
Seating capacity eighteen and not
more than twenty-five, $50.

Seating capacity tWenty-Seyen and
not more than thirty, $40.
Any ears with a seating capacity
above thirty will pay the $40 fee and
an extra fee Of 81 for each additional
passenger.
New Light Law
Motorists should look to their lights
before the new law becomes effective
Mr.. Dill warns, for after that time it
will be Illegal to drive with a lamp
burning brighter than tw~enty-four
candle power. There are many cars
on the highways at the present time
burning lamps with high as forty, Mr..
Dill asserts, and it is these a
which are causing many of the COM
plants of glazing headlights. BY adj
herring to the new law Mr.. Dill hopes
to make the glazing headlight menace
a thing Of the past.
License tags bearing the letter G
will be owned by municipalities, coun-
ties, the United States Government or
the Red Cross or other humane or
CARNATIONS. This is the letter which
has been chosen by Mr.. Dill for these
licenses. Heretofore police patrols,
am~bulanres and other municipality
9WEed vehicles we're not compelled to
obtain license tags. By the new law,
