Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Scottish law for determining the status of a vehicle as either a 'private car' or a 'hackney carriage'. These seemingly ordinary terms have significant meaning in law, determining both the duties and liabilities of the driver, and the rights and expectations of the passengers. The book investigates the history of these categories, and the development of the legal distinctions between them. It subjects various past and contemporary modes of transport, from motor cars to horse-drawn vehicles, to detailed analysis. The work draws on a wealth of historical sources, and case law, to demonstrate how societal and technological change have impacted this important legal distinction. This book is an invaluable source for lawyers, historians, and anyone else with an interest in the evolution of the law of transport. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
