to run him down merely because
he does not pull out of the tracks.
The motorman must have his car
under such control that he can
stop it before a collision occurs.
The same general rules applying to
acts of negligence on the part of
respective operators are applicable
to this class of collisions, and the
negligence of either operator must
be the proXimate cause of the ac-
cident. Motorists entering a pub
lie highway carrying street rail-
way tracks between street inter-
sections should recall the right of
way given to street railways be-
tween intersections and exercise
the highest degree of care before
entering upon the tracks, as other
wise, an accident will almost GER
tainly be attributed to his neglect.
There is, however, an exception in
the law to this general rule, known
as the "last chance" or discover
ed peril" doctrine, which permits
an autOmObilist who has negligent
ly placed himself in a position of
danger on street railway track to
recover for injuries sustained in
collision with a street car, where
the motorman, after discovering
the danger of the motOrist, could,
by the exercise of reasonable care,
have avoided the collision. The mo-
torist who is suddenly confronted
with an OncOming street car which
is negligently operated, is not ex-
pected by the law to use as high
degree of caution as~he would un-
der ordinary circumstances, and his
failure to employ the best course
in avoiding the impending peril is
not contributOry negligence as a
matter OF law.

The rights of street railway
cars and automobiles travelling
parallel to them are essentially
different than where an autOmc-
bic meets a street car at right
angle crossing. Between street
crossings, the street railway cars
are generally accorded a preferen-
tial right to use the space allotted
to their tracks. Operators of motor
vehicles or other travellers may
use that part of the street occupied
by the street railway trakcs, but
the street cars have the right Of
way over them. Motorists should
bear in mind that the street car
cannot turn out of the tracks and
should, therefore, give it the right
of way by pulling to the side of
the sreet.
1t is, of course, fundamental
principle of law that street railway
companies do not insure other trav-
