Atlanta Considers New Auto License and Speed Ordinance
An Atlanta measure would curb motor car speed from fifteen to twelve miles per hour, require a compulsory examination and bond of 500 dollars for chauffeurs, set license terms and plate rules, and establish an autonomous three-member board including the police chief to issue certificates. The ordinance defines vehicle scope, license penalties, and board operations, with enforcement beginning after state approvals and a two-year board term.
