/■ " Weather Clear When racing drivers are out lor new speed recorus, they pray for a clear, fast track. But those same conditions on the nation’s highways produce different records—deadly records! Last year 80 per cent of fatal accidents, 26280 occurred in clear weather on straight, dry roads. Only one answer too much speed, too little control. Highways are not raceways, but every road has its dread quota of “race track fringe” drivers. One highway safety authority says: “It is not a question of what is a safe speed—now it is what is a * survival speed* for the average driver? It isn’t up in the 65 miles an hour and plus range, — where sustained momentum hypnotizes the senses, where impact is deadly. Now we must slow down to live!” In the last four years average speeds have been creeping up until more than half of all rural driving, passenger cars and buses, are now > exceeding fifty miles per hour with many of them doing well over sixty. This high speed hysteria must be tamed. It has become a national emergency to be met by indignant public demand for more and stricter law enforcement. Let’s stop this losing race with Death!
