CORONERS DON'T WANT ROAD COURTS

20 m.p.h. Speed Limit Urged

Traffic courts to conduct inquiries into road accidents are, in the view of the Coroners' Society, unnecessary.

Giving evidence on behalf of the society before the House of Lords Select Committee on Road Accidents recently, Sir Seymour Williams, coroner for South Gloucestershire, said that such courts would impinge on the proper principles of justice which had been applied in coroners' courts for so many years.

An enormous organisailon would be necessary for setting up traffic courts and would involve a great deal of expense.

"A coroner's jury," he said,

"should be entitled to return a

verdict that a person was driving DISCOVERY

to the danger of the public, and

the coroner should be able

to

commit a person for trial on that charge.

" the law were altered, a coro- nor's jury might think that a person

He said there had been a significant drop in street fatalities in Central London which he must regard as satisfactory.

In 1930 he had to deal with 130 street fatalities. In 1934 there were 180 cases: in 1935, 60; 61 in 1937; and In the first three months of this year only nine.

He attributed the drop to the greater publicity given o road dan- gers, the imposition of the speed limit, and the provision of pedestrian crossings and traffic lights,

At his public examination Mr. Bruce Vlieland Parker, fat described as an insurance broker and property dealer, of Regent Street, W., admitted gross liabilities of £138,980, of which £47,316 was expected to rank against assets valued at £23,816.
