Crossings

Richmond. Na.,-Drivers Of auto
mobiles and other vehicles using the

come to a full stop before crossing
any main line railway track at
grade under a law recently enacted

The law provides that drivers Of
all vehicles on approaching any
grade crossing Of main line railway
track outside an incorporated town
must stop not less than ten feet nor
more than one hundred feet from
the nearest rail. A penalty Of ten
dollars for each violation is provided
in the act.
Advocates Of this act pointed out
