The attitude of a good driver Is one of relaxed alertness. That Is, re laxeil physically but alert ment ally. It Is going to take a little while for a new driver to take her mind off the mechanical effort of Tina Majority of Women lirltera Aro Moro foinlileniti' nnd More nrWnl 'liinn Men 't hough home Hum' l imit of lliiug Utcri-iiutlous, Sny uffltvni (Hy Automotive engineer) Just to get a little Inside Infor- nntlon wo asked n half-dozen truf fle cops, of long experience, tne question: "Who aro the belter Ivors, men or women.' the answer of the majority of the o(- Icera to thla question fas. notn or neither." On the whole, nicy Ijought that the average woman s a heller type of driver to bnvo at large on the highways neninu the wheel of a car thnn a num. The reaion for this Is that tney are more careful and more consider ate of others. Aa one nff:cer expressed It. how- .. i....i .i..i... ever, when a woman is er she Is "the limit!" She may bo either recklera and heedless to the extreme or she may he so over. cauUous and fearful that she is a menace aa well as nn nnpeuiioeii. to regular traffic. Any car that la not keeping Its normal place In tho traffic stream Is a source of n.i.irhanre. If the car Is going too fast It la constantly other cars, and It I passings that drhliig. It Is merely a matter ot practice. Cultivate an easy atti tude ;at the wheel.

Vriien drivers should be par ticularly careful that their brakes are liH)good condition. Have them checkad over and adjusted the mo- ment they do not stop the car per fectly. Good brakes do not -have to be applied with such abnormal effort. Sometiv;s a man may be able to use poor brakes because of the extra pressure he can exert on the pedal. When a woman drive: the brakes should be operating perfectly and she will have better control of the car and a muc jrreater supply of self-confidence.
