COME ON IN
THE MILEAGE IS FINE
If you're tired of being kidded about low-cost
tire mileage, and really want to get it, let me
fijc you. up now with a set of new Gcodyears.
Quality considered Goodyears are the lowest
cost equipment you can buy, and you will have
the satisfaction of knowing that no one gets a
better tire or a better price than you do.
No "special deals," no "extra discounts," no
"lorig trade" line of taffy here just a mighty
good tire at as low a price as I can afford to
sell it.
You'll have a lot I'll make a little and we'll
both be happy. Come on in the mileage is fine.

and then come numerous addi
tions and subtractions. This has
continued for several years and
the law makers seem to be lead
ing the auto drivers a merry
chase, i
Probably the most important
bit of legislation coming from the
1027 legislature and which con
cerns the driver is that about the
Rules, of the fioad. They have
been revised. The old law was re
arranged and made more definite.
To a large extent it has been
based Qn the Hoover code . and
now the motorist who travels over
the country and knows the Oregon,
eode will find that he knows the
rules of the road in many states.
This fact in itself will prove most
beneficial to the auto drivers of
this state.
The most important part of House Bill number 13G,
which covers the Rules of the Road, follows:
Section 2. Rules of the Road. The laws of the' road
everywhere. in this state are hereby declared to be as follows:
1. Drivers of vehicles proceeding in the opposite direc
tion shall pass to the right, giving one-half of the road to
each.
2. The driver of any vehicle overtaking another vehicle
proceeding in the same direction shall pass at a, safe distance
to the left thereof, and shall not again drive to the right side
of the highway until safely clear of such overtaken vehicle.
3. (a) The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow
another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, '
having due regard to the speed of such vehicles and the traf
fic upon and condition of the highway.
(b) The driver of any motor truck when traveling upon
a highway outside of business or residence "district shall not
follow another motor truck within three hundred feet, but
this shall not be construed to prevent one motor truck over
taking and passing another.
4. The driver of an overtaking motor vehicle not within
a business or residence district shall give audible warning
with his horn or other warning device before passing or at
fire department vehicle giving audible signal by Jbell, siren or
tempting to pass a vehicle proceeding in the same direction.
5. (a) Upon the approach of any police, traffic officer or
exhaust whistle, the driver of every other vehicle shall imme
diately drive the same to a position' as near as possible and
parallel to the right-hand edge or curb of the highway, clear "
of any intersection of highways, and shall stop and remain in
such position unless otherwise directed by a police or traffic
officer until the police or fire department vehicle shall have
passed.
(b) It shall be unlawful for the driver of any vehicle,
other than one on official business to follow any fire appar
atus traveling in response to a fire alarm closer than five
hundred feet or to drive into or park such vehicle within the
block where fire apgaxatwfrtras stopper! -inanswer to a fire
alaramvdihift-ilTree blocks of a pofnt where-&jfire is in
6. The driver o'f a vehicle upon a highway about to be
overtaken and passed by another vehicle approaching from
the rear shall give way to theight in favor of the overtaking
vehicle on suitable and audible signal being given by the
driver of the overtaking vehicle, and hall not increase the
speed of his vehicle until completely passed by the overtaking
vehicle.
7. (a) Drivers, when" approaching highway intersec
tions, shall look out for and give right of way to vehicles on
the right, simultaneously approaching a given point whether
' such vehicle first enter and reach the intersection or not;
provided, that, street and interurban cars and emergency
vehicles shall have the right of way at all times at such high
way intersections.
