Mayor Alexander’s electric car!

April 10, 1910: Mayor George Alexander says he’ll still be chauffeured on his official duties but is learning how to drive an electric Waverly phaeton for personal use. The 70-year-old mayor of Los Angeles says, "This chauffeuring is serious business. You know, there's a whole lot to learn in managing this machine so you won't try to run over the curbstones. But I'll get there, all right."
