Speeding drivers involved in
1 out of 3 fatal traffic accidents
i Watch out—the time you save by speeding may be
j spent in the cemetery. According to official traffic
; records, speed is the most frequently reported violation
1 in fatal traffic accidents.
j
j So exercise your foot someplace else than on the
accelerator. Remember that a speeding car is harder to
w»*'
handle, takes longer to stop, does more damage. Make
it a point to drive at safe speed . . . always.
When driving conditions are bad, safe speed fe often
much lower than the legal, posted limit. Slow down
when weather or visibility is poor. It may take a little
longer—but chances are you’ll live a lot longer.
Lights out for another speed mer
chant. Somebody tried to outguess a
traffic light and now somebody is
dead. Don’t let this happen to you.
Slow down at intersections. When
you step on the gas instead of the
brakes, it may be your last step.
Too late for the doctor. This driver
couldn’t wait. He speeded past an
other car on a hill, and look what
happened! Remember this and be
extra careful. Don’t pass on hills or
curves. Don’t weave in and out of
traffic. Always drive at a safe speed.
Dead serious. You’re asking for
trouble when you can’t take time to
heed road signs. These signs are put
up for your protection. So learn what
they mean and follow the*m. Too
many of the drivers who don’t “be
lieve in signs” end up in the hospital.
