Yet many drivers forget this when leaving their cars at service stations for in- spection before starting on long trips. The speedometer test should be one of the principal items of inspection. Tourists often are led astray from im- portant turns in the highway, the driver depending on the synchroniza- tion of a faulty speedometer and an accurate road map to nd his way.

In his defence Robinson stated that the farmer drove his car onto the road after dark without lights or sig- nal of any kind.
