Safety and Service Total fatalities in the United States in 1923 involving automobiles amounted to 19,564. Os these, 1.784 occurred at railroad grade crossings. Almost one-third of the total fatalities were children, according to information recently given out by the National Safety Council, The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) because of the remarkable success of its safety campaign believes that its experience may be interesting to the public. Twelve thousand motor vehicles belonging to the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) were in operation during 1925 They crossed 36,840,01)0 railroad crossings during 1923 with but one fatal accident; and 31,000,000 crossings in 1924 with no accidents—a total in 2 years of 67,840.000 railroad crossings with but one fatal accident. The attitude of personal responsibility assumed by Standard Oil Company (Indiana) drivers has been the chief factor contributing to this remarkably successful record. Every driver of a Standard Oil Company (Indiana) truck considers himself personally responsible for the lives es other drivers and their passengers, pedestrians who cross the street, and children playing near. He has a higher concern than merely to keep within the law. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) drivers are taught to do more than “stop, look and listen.” They are taught to stop and think before they undertake the grave responsibility of driving. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has based its educational campaign for safety on the belief that any man who takes time to consider the constant dangers of modern traffic, must realize the necessity for extreme care and extra caution at all times. Because, in America we boast a car for every six persons, the possibilities of motor accidents are worthy of serious consideration. This consideration is a part of the training of Standard Oil Company (Indiana) drivers. They’ know that to avoid accidents they must do more than obey traffic laws to the letter. The population of a city the size of Ann Arbor, Michigan, was needlessly killed during the last year by automobiles. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) drivers know that tne record for 1926 is being made now -and they realize that they are among the many who are personally responsible for it. . The promotion of greater safety is part of the Standard (Ml Company (Indiana) conception of service AU the vast resources of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana), the collective energy and intelligence of its personnel of 29.000 men and women are at the service of • the individual and the community.
