Gerald Gillis, 30, a Cavan township truckdriver, admitted driving down a King street side- walk in Millbrook three times about 10.40 p.m, January 23. He was remanded to April 6.

Scott. Chief Scott said he saw tire marks along the sidewalk later, and that the licence on Gil- lis' car was the same one OPP had referred to him. Defence attorney Russell Honey asked each. witness if it were true that driving automo- biles on the sidewalk was a form of sport in Millbrook. They agreed they had heard of it happening, but had never seen it done before. Mr. Honey argued that Gills' actions did not constitute wanton or reckless disregard for public life or property to warrant a criminal negligence charge, Crown Attorney Harry Deyman suggested there was criminal negligence because although Gil- lis knew the danger of his action, he persisted in driving along the sidewalk three times.
