George bert BONNER, B.A., OF THE INNER TEMPLE AND MIDLAND CIRCUIT, STEVENS AND SONS, LIMITED, 119 & 120, CHANCERY LANE, Law Publishers and Booksellers. THE object of this Book is to lay before the reader in a concise form the Law relative to all matters concerning the use of Locomotives, Carriages, and other Vehicles upon Highways. The recent legislation in regard to Motor Cars has drawn particular attention to this class of carriage, but the bulk of the Law applicable to them is equally applicable to vehicles of other classes, and it is hoped that this Book may be found to be a sufficient statement of the Law affecting the use of all vehicles. The First Chapter is devoted to the Locomotives on Highways Act, 1896, the latest addition to the number of already existing Statutes dealing with locomotives. Together with the sections of the Act will be found the Regulations of the Secretary of State, and of the Local Government Board, which, by Section 7 of the Act, have statutory force. In the Second Chapter the Statutes relating to vehicles generally are digested, including the Regulations of the Commissioner of Metropolitan Police. The later Chapters of the Book deal with the The Appendix contains all the important Statutes applicable to the use of vehicles of every class upon the highways. To show the number of Statutes on this subject, it may be noted that it has been neces- sary to refer to nearly sixty Statutes. The bringing together of the principal Statutes into the Appendix of one volume will, it is hoped, be of convenience G. A. BONNER. |
