AUTOMOllB.L.L!Es{8l|
The ReasOnabIeness OF Municipal Regulations

automobiles to drive in any part OF
a street except along the curb have
also been held to be unreasonable.
1t has been pretty generally held
that where a municipality makes a
regulation fixing certain speed limits
or forbidding parking, left-hand
turns, or establishing other traffic
regulations, it must erect a proper
sign informing the travelling public
of the requirements of its ordinances.
Ii the local authorities fail to erect
such a sign the ordinance is unen-
forceable and the motorist cannot be
held to a stricter mode of conduct
than that prescribed by the law of
the state.
Thus if the legislature of state,
by statute, requires the speed of fif-
teen miles an hour, a municipal reg
ulation forbidding a speed of more
than ten miles an hour could not be
enforced in the absence of a sign
warning the travelerss.that such a
ordinance has been enacted.
1t is rapidly becoming well estab-

toring public against unjust enforce
ment of municipal regulations that
motorist who deems himself un-
justly dealt with, may waive a hear
ing before the local justice of the
peace or magistrate and, by giving
bond, appeal his case to the courts
of the county in which the municip-
ality is located, where he is more
likely to receive impartial and fair
treatment.
OF course, if the action of the JUS
tice of the peace or magistrate can
be shown to be so illegal or dishon-
est as to constitute extortion or mis-
conduct in office, the law of most
states gives the motorist right to
proceed criminally against him in
the courts of the county in which he
has his jurisdiction. Several cOnvic-
tions have recently been secured on
charges of this character, and the
old fine mill is destined to shortly
become a thing of the past.
