SPEED CONTROL STUDIED (Reprinted frwn mt Salem Capital Journal) The official study of the virtues of two systems of high way speed control now is underway, and we're pleased. This is the study we requested without much hope in an editorial several months njro. Since most agencies of state jrovernment involved are happy with the prseent basic rule law, we hadn't expected such a thorough investigation, if any at all. But a committee appointed by Motor Vehicles Director Jim Johnson had its first meetinjr and held a hearin? at which (rroops presented arguments. Officials of other states using both systems and combinations of them also will be quizzed by mail. A report on the findings will be issued about a month from now. Although the committee is loaded, we're still happy with it. On it are State Traffic Engineer F. B. Cramiall and Lt. Farley Morgan of State Police, two of the basic rule's most eloquent proponents. But if they can prove their points against all comers, we can ask little more. The committee will come back with one of four recom mendations: 1. That the basic rule law be kept as it is (with only suggested maximum speeds for normal conditions). 2. That the basic rule be kept, h'tt that hard and fast maximums be set for normal conditions. 3. That there be fixed rpe limits everywhere. 4. That there be fixed speed limits inside cities and the basic rule outside. Attornev General Rrtert Y. Thornton recently came out for plan 2. The An. of Oregon City Police Officers only last week advocated plan i. State police in the past, at least, have favored plan . So far as we know, no group or authoritative individual in the state has come out pub licly frr plan 3 which means abandonment of the basic rule in entirety. The hasic rule for those who have neglected their driv er's manual, says that a driver must keep his vehicle tinder control at all times and pace his speed to road conditions, weather, traffic and other hazards. It has been called "the rule of reason." and Oregon has had it since 1932. Only recently has it come under considerable attack. Although we lean toward of the opposition to the basic ception. The basic rule, contrary to some critics, has not failed obviously. Statistics are deceiving. Oregon is a much safer place to drive than it was only a few years ago. .The accident rate per million miles has been just about cut in half in the past decade. The fatality toll creeps up slow ly only because there are twice as many cars now, each of which travels farther per year. The trouble with the basic rule is only that it makes enforcement a bit tricky. Drivers have been pinched on the freeway driving more than 100 m.p.h., and have Wen acquitted because the officer could not prove bevnnd a doubt that a danger had been created. Other drivers haven't even been whistled down at 85 because this court room difficulty has been anticipated. The trouble with a fixed speed is that it is hard to set the correct speed for each stretch of road and expensive to post it. And drivers varv. Some ran drive 70 on good road. Others are shaky at fiO, proponents of the basic rule insist. Too, it isn't right to put a fixed limit on a good driver in good conditions. For example, such a limit might lie 60 for the average highway. Yet this highway dry. in daylight, in light traffic might not be a hazard at 70 or 75. Yet all traffic would be slowed or the officer would be bound to arrest one safe driver after another. Unfortunately, statistics are no help. Too many con ditions vary, and it's difficult to make an accurate com parison of fixed speed anil basic rule states. Majority rule is no help either, since just altout half the states have fixed speeds. It's a great argument, with all the sparring room in the world, and we're glad it finally is being aired. IN THE DAY'S NEWS By FRANK f suppose you have read and listened to the political roundups and post mortems on the Cali fornia primary election They have been numerous In general, the Democratic comment has been m hilant. About the best the Republi cans have been able to do is to put on brave front and say WAIT TILL NOVEMBER. An impartial observer must rer tainly admit that as of now nothing teems more certain than that the Democrats will heavily increase their prevent rather thin control of both houses of the congress Among other things, this Is a recession period In our recession' periods (which seem to he an in evitable part of our economic ss- tern) people aren't too happy with, the way thinks ate going.
