\ | ay -- WINNETKA TALK October 10, 1925 "Use Ordinary Care," Warning to Motorists A motorist may be guilty of negli- gence, and at the same time not be guilty of violating a traffic law, says a bulletin issued by the legal depart- ment of the Chicago Motor club. "The law of the land places upon every driver the duty of exercising ordinary care," reads a statement. "Ordinady care requires you to remem- ber that others, pedestrians, children, and horse-drawn vehicles, use the highways. "In the exercise of ordinary care, the motorist should consider the possible acts of other drivers; remembering that every month sees thousands of new motorists on the streets -- an army of inexperienced drivers. "The state law says that anything over a certain rate of speed is prima facie evidence of negligence. On a rainy night, when your view of the road is obstructed, when children are playing on the sidewalks, when street lighting is dim; these are all special accasions when the motorist may, in the exercise of ordinary care, be forced to drive at a rate of speed even lower than that prescribed by law." The right hand right of way law is still a subject that confuses many motorists, according to the legal de- partment of the Chicago Motor club. "Motorists are often of the opinion that the right hand right of way rule applies to street cars," says a bulletin issued by the legal 'department, "but it has been held that street cars are not vehicles within the meaning of the Act. "Drivers using streets upon which street cars run are prone to consider that they have the right of way because they are traveling on such a street. The right hand right of way law ap- plies here as elsewhere. The only ex- . ceptions to the rule are boulevards and through streets, or streets upon which traffic is regulated by traffic officers. "The right hand right of way law governs vehicles approaching intersec- tions. The man on your right has the right of way at all intersections; the law does not apply to cars traveling on the same street and running in the opposite direction."
