SLIPPERY STREETS
Slippery streets claim a bis per
centage of the December-March
traffic toll, says Secretary of State
Robert S. Farrell, Jr. Tires,
brakes, and perfect eyesight are
useless wnen there's no traction
for your car. Scores' of Oreeonians
aie and hundreds are iniured ev.
ery year because they don't make
allowances for skid conditions.
bnmy pavement is a danger sign.
Skidding is a quick route to the
grave.
DARKNESS DANGEROUS
Early darkness cloaks more
than half of the cold weather
traffic deaths, It has been disclos
ed by Secretary of State Robert S.
Farrell, Jr. No matter how many
lights you have on your car. no
matter how many lights there are
in the street, they simply can't
do the work of sunlight. The ac
cident records prove it. The grave
yards testify to it. Darkness hides
danger. Slow down at sundown.
