The C.M.U.A. Examination Results for 1916 Papers.

The results of the annual written technical examination of commercial motor drivers, held by the C.M.U.A., were recently announced. The examiner in his report to the association states :—" I am pleased to report that the work done by the candidates shows a standard of intelligence higher than ever before ; this is particularly noticeable in. the papers of those drivers who have followed up the examinations for several years. Some of them have long been excellent practical men, but have in the past been unable to give intelligible answers to questions, either in written or oral examinations."
