A soldier of the Permanent Force was arrested tor driving a truck " an ex- cessive speed. Whe nbrought belore the court, the magistrate found that the soldier had been driving too fast and in a manner dangerous to the public. Yet. because the driver was a soldier and because the vehicle was a government truck, the magistrate found that he had no jurisdiction. The case was dismissed. That may be sound law. but it is not aound common sense. Supposing a soldier in s government truck killed some one. it would be ot little consolation to go to the bereaved and tell them it was all right. the victim was killed by an army man in an army car. The mourners would get no consolation from that.
