Driver Says Police Out To Get Him A man who felt that '"'the police were out to get him' appeared in the Oshawa Magis- trate's Court Wednesday on a charge of speeding. William Sherrin was fined $10 when found guilty of driving 70 mph in a 60 mph zone. He pleaded not guilty. Sherrin had been stopped hv Constable C. Preston: Ontario Provincial Police Mer 12, on Highway 401, and, ac- cording to the testimony of the constable, had flown into a rage, Sherrin, who operates an ambulance business, had told him that the police were being paid off by competitors to get Sherrin in trouble. Sherrin, In the witness box, admitted he had become "irri- tated"' but said that as soon as the constable had seen his licence, he had told him _ that he would be charged. He said apparently the police know him from past conflicts he had had with the OPP. "There have been bad cases on the highways," he said, "that would give a bad name to the OPP if investigated." Magistrate R. B. Dnieper told him that 2!! this had noth- ing to do with his speeding charge. "T am not listening to any: thing else," he said, 'but were you doing 70 miles per hour?" "No, was not," Sherrin answered. "You say the police are out to get you," the magistrate said later. 'If ihe police were out to get you you would be in jail." He told Sherrin that shouting, using bad language and creat- ing a disturbance while police officer is investigating could result in a jail term. "The constable could . very well have charged you. So you see, the police are not out to get you," His Worship assured nied he drank often. Suspend Careless | Mary E. Gray, 18, of Toron- to, was placed on suspended sentence in the Oshawa Magis-| fic clinic, "because one should not drive by signs, but by one's observation of the road,"' Magistrate Robert} D. Dnieper explained. Miss! Gray was charged with careless driving and pleaded not guilty. Constable E. Collinson, of the he had found Miss} Gray's car on the shoulder of the road, after it had apparent-| out of control and knocked down a telephone pole. The accident happened April 3 on the intersection of the Whitchurch Markham _town- ship line and the York-Ontario boundary, a T-intersection. Miss Gray stated she had not Iseen a sign that gives warning of the T-intersection in time to negotiate the turn. She said she was not familiar with the road, that she had gone no faster than 30 mph and that the sign in question had been hard to see jbecause it was dark and the sign was dirty. Counsel for the defence, after teross examination of the police constable and before calling his first witness, argued that insuf- ficient evidence had been given! of careless driving because 'there could have been several jreasons why the car did what it did." He asked that the case be ' him. instruments and}. Sentence Driving When asked whether she had know. "You mean to say, you did| |not know whether you were 80, ing to turn north or south?"! Magistrate Dnieper asked. | "I thought it natural that the ighway would go straight through," Miss Gray retorted. Two other witnesses were called by the defence who were passengers in the car before the accident occurred. Both confirmed that the sign had been difficult to discern and that none of them was familiar with) the road. | In his argument, counsel for the defence said that he felt there was not enough evidence that an offence had been com- mitted on the highway, whereas the only tracks found were on the shoulder of the: road. He also submitted that under the circumstances there had _ not been an instance of careless driving. The agent for the crown sug- gested that a knocked-down tele- phone pole surely was evidence of an instance of driving with- out due care. "If that sign had not been there you should still have seen the road,' Magistrate Dnieper said and registered a convic- tion, SECOND SECTION «| Area Phones | Five Speeders Fined $10 Each Five persons were convicted ae in absentia in the Oshawa Ma- jtrate's Court Wednesday, andjintended to turn right or left,|gistrate's Court Wednesday on |was ordered to attend the traf-|Miss Gray said she did not|charges of speeding.
