Fisher. assistant attorney general. Mr. Fisher ruled that motorists can pass bussee standing at street cor- ners receiving and discharging pas- sengers when both are boung In the same direction. He also ruled that when street car and asutomobile meet at the inter- ction of strests the first to reach the corner has the right Jf way. Mr. Fisher gald, for instance, an automobile could not pass on the £ht of @ bus stopped at the corner. The bus would be too close to the curb to allow passing. The possibil- ity of passengers alighting from or loarding the stopped bus being in- jured by a passing automoblle is, therefors, nil, At the same corner, with the bus stopped. il traffic would h )f way over northboung t his is in accord- nce with the law giving the right of way to the automobile approaching from the t r. Fisher quoted section 163 of code to support his second ruling. sction provides that “all vehi- cles shall have the right of way over other vehicles approaching at inter- wecting roads from the left, and shall Eive right of way to those approach- ing from the right.” He eraphasized the word vehlele. ™ In the automobile raferred solely oles and not car or auton or nearest Just the most at- tractive of under- wear for gifts—and at a saving.
