Day of Reckless Taxi Drivers Is Past in Indianapolis

Time was when a taxi-cab driver was only exceeded in reckless desire for speed by race drivers and when it came to collecting at the end of a hairraising ride he put even a gas company to shame. But the days of chance taking and over-charging, at least in the Indianapolis taxi-cab business, are no more. Instead of permitting reckless driving, the Yellow Cab Company, the largest taxi company in the city, has for the last six months been conducting an active campaign to do away with careless driving, with its resulting accidents, to encourage courtesy and efficient service to patrons and to reduce taxi charges to the lowest possible point.

I And while educating their own ! drivers in the principle of “safety first,” the company is trying to spread the doctrine to all motorists. Such slogans as “Look and Live,” "Never pass a street car on the left” and "Hold out your hand when turning” are reminders to drivers which are pasted conspicuously on the front of every yellow cab. They are also safety suggestions to every other motorist. As constant reminders to the taxi driver, every car carries cards with such warnings as "A thoughtless moment may cause an accident that a life time cannot repair.” Drivers entering the company's service pledge themselves "to drive safely at all times, take no unnecessary

chances and be courteous to the company's patrons." The promise is more than just a card to be signed and forgotten. A system lias been inaugurated by which stamped, self-addressed cards are sent to the patrons of the company, inquiring whether the safety rules were observed and if not, which of them were violated. Mike Maroney of the company says the system has meant as much as a 50 per cent decrease in accidents in several of the cities where it is in use, and it means a saving in money, for it costs something for even the slight accidents. “In four years our business has grown from three little cars to forty. Goldfish numbers 500,000 are imported into Great Britain every year, most of them coming from Italy, where the breeding is a big industry.
