A main street in a city in Michigan. Trolley car and a horse-drawn wagon pass in front of a building. Scene shifts to a wide road with pedestrians gathered in center, waiting to cross. An oncoming car swerves toward the pedestrians, who jump out of the way. A police officer waves the motorist to a stop, jumps on his running board and directs him to the side of the road. Another change of scene shows car driving in residential neighborhood along a divided road with grass and shrubs planted in the divider. The curbs are tree lined and there are ample sidewalks for pedestrians.
