A Massachusetts court wasrecently cal led upon to decidethis
question:Damages of $1000 against anautomobilist who ran over a
doghung on the decision y)f thecourt.The dog owner contended
thatthe dog was "in exercise of duecare"when he was run down bythe
automobile.If the court finds that the dogwas discreet the
automobil istwil l have to pay.We recommend that every automobilist
exercise a little discretion and protect himself witha Travelers
Automobile Policy,so that he won't be a los er inca'se some court
decides againsthim.
Can a Dog ExerciseDiscretion?
