Traffic Glossary (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Traffic Glossary

The purpose of this work is to fill a long-felt need on the part of railway and industrial traffic men for a brief, concise, and authoritative medium defining the many legal and technical terms and phrases, territorial descriptions, and abbreviations that are encountered constantly by them in the pursuit of their duties.

A fact to be greatly deplored in connection with American jurisprudence is that little or no attention is paid to defining the various subjects of regulation and the means by which they are to be regulated.

Foreign countries are chary of using phrases and terms of doubtful meaning, and where such terms and expressions are used, they are defined with the utmost exactness.
