The magistrate did not err: the choice of Chinese for trial was a proper exercise of discretion; typographical/name/address defects were immaterial and the summons was validly amended and served; filing a notice under s7D is discretionary and not a prerequisite; interruptions did not prejudice the appellant; 'ride' includes riding a bicycle and 'foot-path' includes pavements; the appellant's claimed excuse of feeling unwell was rejected as not lawful; accordingly the conviction and fine were upheld.
