Road Fatality Inquiry.
A finding that Albert Edward John Pady (78) came by his death at Mandurah-road, South Fremantle, on September 6 as a result of his being struck by a motor car driven by Mrs. Mary Fulton was entered by the Acting-Coroner (Mr. F. Mann, J.P.) at the conclusion of an inquest in the Fremantle Courthouse yesterday. Mr. Mann added that no blame was at tachable to any person, and that the lighting on the roadway had been defective.
Dr. A. R. Bean, who conducted a post-mortem examination, said that the cause of death was concussion and cerebral haemorrhage. Mrs. Mary Fulton, nurse, of Douro road, South Fremantle, said that about 7.30 p.m. on September 6 she was driving her car in a northerly direction along Mandurah-road. As the car approached Ada-street, travelling at about 20 m.p.h., witness saw a man crossing the road about 15 feet in front of the car. The brakes were applied immediately but the left portion of the front of the car struck the man. Witness considered that the deceased had been too close to the car for the accident to have been avoided. The brakes and lights of the car had recently been attended to. She had been driving a car for 18 years without being involved in any previous accident.
Constable R. J. Warne said that he had visited the scene of the accident soon after it occurred and had noticed that the street light nearby was not functioning. Mr. L. W. Jackson (instructed by Messrs. Jack son, McDonald, Connor and Ambrose) appeared for the driver of the car and Sergeant A. Cooper assisted the Acting-Coroner.
