Opinion
Judgments reversed and judgment directed in favor of plaintiffs as demanded in the complaint, without costs. We construe the words “ the authority having jurisdiction ”, in subdivision 17 of section 14 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, to mean public officers or bodies only and not to include railroad companies over whose tracks there are maintained bridges carrying public highways. No opinion.
Concur: Loughran, Ch. J., Lewis, Conway, Desmond, Dye, Fuld and Froessel, JJ.
