Court Decision
Good Guide for
Motorists to Follow

A few safe and sane Hints to
Motorists and Pedestrians" which
bear the approval of the Maine Law
Court as their authority are con-
tanned in a rescript just handed down
by Justice Luere B. Deasy. The sew
eral suggestions made in regard to
the maneuvering of motorists and
pedestrians in city traffic are made
by Justice Deasy in deciding his
opinion in a Penobscot County case,
which involved an appeal from a
motorist against whom damages had
been assessed in a lower court for
running down a child alighting from
trolley car.
In his rescript Justice Dearsy said:
THE duties of a motorist approach
ing the rear of an ordinary street
car are regulated by statute. If the
car has to stop to land or take on
passengers, he must bring 1t (the
automobile) to a full stop. But when
the automobile is approaching to
meet street car, the statute does
not purport to apply. In such case
the mutual rights and duties of the
parties depend upon the common law.
by the common law the motorist
and pedestrian must each exercise due
care. But the due care rule demands
of the motorist greater vigilance than
is required of pedestrian. The care
to be exercised by the motorist must
be commensurate with the danger
arising from lack of it.
mo man has right to operate an
automobile through a street blindfold-
ed. When his vision is temporarily de-
stroyed (as by glazing lighO it is
his duty to stop his car.
"A pedestrian about to cross a street
or pass from a street car to the curb
stone is not. as a matter of law,
bound to look and listen. But II the
road is city or village street, having
considerable automobile traffic, failure
to look for approaching vehicles may
be strong evidence of negligence.
"A pedestrian does his full duty II,
before crossing n street, he or she
looks for approaching cars and waits
until 1t reasonably appears that a
prompt crossing can be safely effected,
if approaching automobiles are lawful
