4,065 l941 Speeders Arrested.
Thus far this year, 4O65 motorists
have been stopped for speeding as
compared with only 2,173 arrests for
this violation during the first four
months of 1910. With an average
fine of IS being assessed in court
for speeding, this means that the
urge to step on the accelerator has
cost these 4,OOO-odd drivers more
than $4,000.
The total traffic arrests last month
dropped II per cent from March's S
figure with 10,015 reported as COM
pared with 12,1l4 in the previous
month.
Much of this decrease was re-
vealed in arrests for parking viola
tions. For instance, violators of the
mo parking from 4 to pm" regu-
lation totaled 744 last month as
compared with 943 in March; 266
motorists we're arrested for disre-
garding the mo parking at any
time" rule-102 less than the num-
Der nabbed for this violation during
the previous month, and only ITO
drivers who parked from am. to
6 pm in forbidden territory were
arrested last month as compared
with 295 given tickets in March.
Moving Violations.
Smaller decreases also were shown
in arrests for moving violations
such as passing stop signs, passing
red lights and driving on the wrong
side of the street. Arrests for each
of these violations totaled 244, 189
and 116, respectively. as compared
with 260, 257 and Isl. respectively
during the previous month.
Violators of the pedestrian con-
troll regulation, however, increased
slightly over the number arrested
in March with 81 violations reparted
in April as compared with "A in the
previous month.
Other classifications in which in
creases were reported included
reckless driving arrests, which

Taxi Driver,
Refusing Fare,
| Gets Ticket

This may be bad news to cab
drivers who refuse to take only
one passenger when he or she
is standing on the edge OF the
2O-cent zone and wants to be
taken downtown.
According to the record OF
police traffic arrests last month,
one cabbie was given a ticket
for refusing to haul fare"
Unofficially, it was explained
that the arrest was made be-
cause of the hackers refusal to
take a member of the Daugh-
ters of the American Revolu-
ton. here for the convention
held recently, from a street
on the boundary of the 20-cent
cab zone to the downtown
business area. The cab driver,
it was said, held out for either
more money or more passen-
gers to the same point.
In doing so he was violating
a regulation of the Public Utili-
ties Commission. which pro-
vides that no cab driver may
refuse a fare If his cab is
vacant.
