Car Collision Case Drifts Toward Conviction Doubt
At Mackayllle Police Court Joseph Alfred Puddicombe of Grafton faced negligence charges after a motor car collision near Nambucca Heads on 25 last. The vehicle owned by D. J. Porter of Nene Glen struck Constable Yardy’s car, sending it into an embankment and turning it over. The case hinged on alleged conversations about damage and insurance, with the magistrate noting a doubt but a perilous closeness to conviction, based on conflicting accounts from witnesses including Yardy and Porter.
