(10) In any case where more than one vehicle is waiting for hire upon an appointed stand the first vehicle on such stand shall have the right to the hiring unless the person hailing shall select a particular vehicle.
(11) Any person who shall commit a breach of this by-law, or shall fail to do any act in this by-law directed to be done by him, or shall do any act which by this by-law is directed not to be done by him, shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding ten pounds (£10) for each such breach or the failure to do or the doing of each such act as aforesaid respectively.
