This book presents a detailed legal examination of street railway laws, discussing case details and principles involving street railway negligence and the liabilities of both street railway companies and passengers. The author draws from a comprehensive review of case law, focusing on higher court rulings to frame a thorough examination of the rights and legal responsibilities of streetcar passengers and companies. Historically, street railways were not constructed with the safety and convenience of passengers at the forefront of design, despite being generally considered a public service. This book's detailed analysis of the laws and principles that have developed around street railway operation provide an important framework for understanding the evolution of passenger safety and protection under the law.
