yesterday. those needs will work. His program will include six ‘major points based on his finding the proof of their effectiveneéss yesterday. ONE: The securing of radar equipment for its exact clocking of speeders and the psychological effect it has on motorists who never know when its unseen eye may be checking them. TWO: An anti-jay walking ordinance. A law which will make traffic violations by pedestrians punishable just as violations by drivers.

THREE: An ordinance giving the safety board the autharity to order emergency posting without the prolonged process of having to have each posted area passed first -by council. In Columbus he saw signs placed within an hour after police deemed them necessary. FOUR: Lane lining on the streets. Painted lanes which are enforced at intersections. A crackdown of violators making turns from the wrong lanes, Striped pedestrian cross-walks at ‘intersections. FIVE: A long range program to’ replace inadequate signal equipment with the latest and best in safety devices. Among these are wink -a - light flashers at stop streets and automatic traffic signals. » SIX: Complete support of the program by the public and by all officials. Public relations attained by an understanding press in sup[port of the department. (On this point he lauded The Times for its current work in aiding the police and authorities.) |
