Rensselaer Republican, Volume 27, Number 38, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 May 1896 — Law of the Road. [ARTICLE]
Law of the Road.
The olet trouble between bicyclers and teamsters, relative to rights on the highway, has begun to rise again, Each party will do well to remember that the other is entitled to half the road. This matter has been tested several times in the court and every time with the same result. The teamster is obliged to give half the road to the bicycle, and on the other hand a drove of sweating “scorchers” have no right to expect a teamster to turn out in the ditch to make way for a wild road race. The law says to divide the road and turn to the right. Ferguson <fe Wilson furnish money on the B <k L plan at the lowest rate Only $1.40 per month. Ask your grocer for Parrott dk Taggarts Lunch Milk Biscuit. * Warren dk Irwin make the most desirable farm loans of any firm in the county. Don’t fail to see those high Grade Monarchs, at the General Supply Store. — ——
