131 ACCIDENT DEATHS BRING ONEjENTENCE Lone Driver Serves Term on Farm. Pays Fine of SIOO. (Continued From Page One) "unavoidable” accident will cost at the minimum S2O and if an arrest is made, court costs of $lO can be added. Salaries of prosecutors, judges, grand jurors, and other court attaches will bring the minimum to SSO merely to place a hit-and-run driver on the docket of criminal court. 3jio4 Accidents Probed The Indianapolis police department investigated 3,810 traffic accidents in 1933 and 2.480 persons were injured in those accidents. Each accident in which a person was injured and where an ambulance was sent to the scene cost taxpayers an estimated sll in salaries. gas and oil. Indiana’s legal teeth, as far as hit-and-run drivers and those slaying by auto are concerned, need pulling and a brand new set of molars, according to many city attorneys as well as Prosecutor Herbert Wilson and Criminal Judge Frank Baker. “The law on failure to stop after an accident now faces a test of its constitutionality before the state supreme court.” explains Prosecutor Wilson. Act's Title Erroneous “The act carries an erroneous title and has been placed with mechanics lien in the statutes. As for the charge of involuntary manslaughter. it is difficult to convict j with the sentence of one to ten j years for nearly every’ juror drives j a car and in many instances places j himself mentally in the position of j the defendant,” the prosecutor said. "Alterations in the state laws are needed if the laws are to become effective and enforceable. The I negligance of the auto driver should • be taken into consideration. The | driver who kills a child at a street | intersection undoubtedly is more ; negligant than the one who runs j down a child crossing the middle of the square,” Mr. Wilson says. The prosecutor urged the possi- : bility of an act holding an auto driver criminally liable in the case of negligance as well as the present manslaughter act's liability of an actual law violation being committed in the commission of the tragedy. Minor Rules Stressed “It is hard to get witnesses to auto fatalities. Many times well- j meaning citizens refuse to testify in j connection with fatal accidents w ith the result that the driver of the car sometimes is the sole eye-wit-ness to the accident,” Mr. Wilson. Judge Baker urged more stringent obediance to minor traffic rules as; obeying stop and go lights, rights j of drivers on preferential streets, | speed laws, as good methods to cut i down traffic fatalities. He pointed out defects in state | laws. “And it seems to me that a definite time should be set for a person reporting on an accident to police, j It is a natural impulse to run away i from violence, and I believe that | some persons would not be hit-and- j run drivers if given a reasonable time in which to report their part in an accident.” Judge Baker concluded.
