To the Editor of The Herald: I have read with interest your edi- torial in reference to curb-side gaso- line pumps and the comparative con- venience to the motor drivers of pumps so placed and those inside the lot line. From my observation, I can- not believe that there is any advant- age to the driver who 'ltopa which would outweigh the inconvenience to ‘hose who have to work their way #round the cars standi directly in the path May I cite two exam to me typical of the ge Near the north end Hartford avenue there are two pumps at the curb on directly opposite sides of the street. When cars are stopped at both of them the roadway is reduced until there is but room for one car to pass between them. There is a curve in the road which hides pumps from view as cars co! the north, until they are.q and I have repeatedly seen® forced to make a quick sto] collision at this point. Thi heavy as this location is on road to Hartford, and it ] very unwise to permit the installal of anything which would cause even a partial obstruction at this point. As to convenience,there isanother station within a few hundred yards where the owner has considerately placed his pumps well off the roadway. Asgain, just beyond the end of Stan. ley street, there is a gasoline pump placed as far out into the street as it is possible to go without being in the roadway, although the owner by sac- vificing a part of his lawn could put the pump entirely out of the street. There are a tree and trolley pole di- rectly across the street near the curb, Uimiting the distance a car could turn out in emergencies. When a car is stopped at the pump and—as happens a number of times every day—there is cne standing across the street there is room for but one to pass between. Meany drivers.pass his point at high speed and the presence of this pump increases the liability of accident. I cannot believa that the added con- venience to the man who stops will in any measure balance the inconven- ience to the many others which is caused by his stopping—to say noth- 'ng of the danger of accidents; par- ticularly when there is another s tion less than two hundred feet away which is out of the road and yet eas ily accessible. 1 think that the same condition could be found tp exist in nearly every serve cars if the curb-side pumps were fcund—that the benefit to one driver who stop#iis more than cancelled’ by the inconvenience to the many who pass, and that there is usually a near- ky station off the street which could gerve cars if he curb-side pumps were abolished. T think it will also be found, in the greater number of in- stances, that the owners could find a way to withdraw their pumps to their own property and provide standing room for cars while being served if they found it necessary to do so. The streets are the property of the public and should be reserved for the undi- vided use of the public, and not be given over in any way to private use, particularly under present conditions when it is more and more necessary tn use every means possible to pro e faeilities for uninterrupted traflic on tha principal thoroughfares—where these trespassing pumps seem univers- ally to be found. I understand that there are sixteen curb-side gas pumps in the city. In other words, fifteen or sixteen vend- ors have, by the use oZ public prop [t erty, secured an advantage ever others not so favored. - Why not give the condition?
