Implied consent has Rogax‘ding l'iabilty. President Phe- lan stated that not only is the owner at all timps hqldresponsible when President, Phelan doclarcd that there was one very important ox- cvption to this rule. It is that. in- \‘anlllfl' the province, county, town- ship or municipality in which the ownership or trustccship ot' roads is vested. Thus. some tinn- ago, a truck two inches wider than the maximum statutory width. crashed through a I'Ottt'll bridge. doing much damage to the truck. Action to re- cover damages from tho municipal- ity involved was quaShcd, although it was shown that the two inclws owr width had nothing to do with the accident. The explanation of this seeming inconsistency is that the truck in not being constructed in compliance with the conditions under which the permit was grant- ed for its operation in the province was guilty of trespass. and its owner not only failed to collect «‘lamages but was required to defray the eXpense of repairing the dam- age his truck had done to the l‘iridge. In this connection, Presi- dent. Phclan pointed out that in case of damage done to motor vehicles by faulty highway or bridge, no- tice must he served on municipal- ities within a week and in other cases, ten days.

In the trial that fol- lowod, tho court hold that their il- lvgal orwration had nothing to do with the. accidont-wa3 not a cause ”and so was irolovant and not ovi- tlonco. In another case, a physician had parked his car heading down a grade. In addition to applying his set brake (hand or emergency brake) he had turned the front wheels in ’against the curb. A mischievous boy, in the doctor’s absence, turned the whmhls to the straight-ahead po- sition and released the brake. The car rolled down the hill gaining such momentum that when it came in contact with a house at- the bot- tom of the grade, both house. and car had their fronts smashed. The owner of the house took action to recover damages from the owner of the ear, but was unsuccessful. The court held that the car owner had taken every reasonable precaution and that. the accident had occurrml and the damages had been sustained through no fault of his.

President Phelan pointed out that neither the law nor the courts de- mand that the driver exercise ex- traordinary caution or he possessed of prescience or proceed with pre- ternatural care. He stated that theoretically the motor vehicle driver and the pedestrian have ax- actly the same rights on the streets and highways. Illustrative of the standard of rare and relative rights of pedestrians and motor vehicle drivers, he cited recent cases. In an appeal, it was shown that a ped- estrian had stepped at night from the side «if the TorontO-Hamilton Highway on to the pavement while walking alone beside it. He was struck and killed by a motor ve- hicle. The Appellate Court held that the deceased had been guilty of negligence in not first ascertain- ing that it was safe to step on to the pavement, and that it was not. reasonable, to eXpect a driver to an- ticipate such an action as he had taken. Mr. T. N. Phelan, K.C., President of the Ontario Motor League, in the course on an interesting interview, gives some valuable information to motor vehicle owners on legal oints that to the lay motorist are 0 tuse, equivocal, ambiguous or unknown. He stated that the standard of care required by the law, of drivers, is the care a reasonable driver would exercise. He must do those things a reasonable driver would do and must not do those things a reason- able driver would not do.

Again a motorist turned his car into a garage for winter storage, giving in- structions as to battery, storage and other matters. The foreman of the garage took the car out and injured a man. Thu car had been used by the foreman despite sturage orders. and so tho ownvr was nut hold liable. been the phrase ground which many a legal battle has been waged. Pres- ident Phelan mentioned two in- stances of interest that elucidate court interpretation of this “implied consent.” Some time ago a car was left by its owner in a garage for a minor repair. The foreman of the garage took the \car out. at noon, drove it to his home, picked up his wife and family and drove around town. In the'course of the drive. he collided with and injured a pedestrian.

Away from the heated Town The HON. GEO. S. HENRY, Minister; S. L SQUIRE. Deputy Mm Ontario’s highways are a welcoming chall e to you and other motorists. Use them, but use theftnwsanely. See the country as ou go. Drive moderately. You cannot make an s records, although you may break speed limits. our last driving tears up the road sur- face which you and other users of the roads must replace. There is no magic about road repair work. It costs hun- dreds of thousands of dollars a year, and the money comes out of your pocket and those of your neighbours.
