ignorance of the statu te is tht
principal reason.
Formerly drivers were require,
.o dim their lights only when meet
:ng another car on wet, hard sur
faetd highway. The new
lav
makes it m andatory to dim the
lights when meeting any ear.
In 1938, statistics compiled bj
the secretary of state show, three
persons were killed and at least 38
injumd in highway accidents ir
which glaring lights were the prin
cipal factor. One death this yeai
has been attributed to the fact
that a driver was blinded by th
light of an approaching car, and
at least nine persons have been in
jured in such accidents.
Stronger lights are allowed un
der the new law. They should b<
of sufficient intensity to revea
distinctly vehicles, persons or ob
jccts a t a distance of at least 35C
Teel instead of 200 feet under the
o'd law. The new act provide*
that the main beam of light shal'
riot project more than 42 inches
above the road way at a distance
of 75 feet ahead o f th: vehicle, y
To do away with the excuse that
the driver “didn’t know my bright*
were on,” the law provides that
a fttr January 1, 1940, cars equip
ped with multiple beam headlight-
must be equipped with a beam i n
dicator which will illuminate when
the bright lights are on. The indi-
c:.toi must be conveniently located
so thi driver can tell a t a glance
whether his lights are dimmed or
on full strength.

, Two boys riding bicycles h'm e
from a meeting one night, on. of
them riding closs; to the center line
of the street. His bicycle had no
lights and as he started to turn
th corner a t an intersection, ht
crashed head-on with an .automo
bile also m iking the turn. The
cyclist was killed instantly.
-This accident, said Earl Snell,
secretary of state, was just on- of
the seven bicycle-autonwhlle i'at-
;h+ics during the first six months
if 1939 that illustrate the impor
tance of proper equipment and
afe practices in riding bicycles. .
‘‘It is becoming somewhat trite
to emphasize the necessity for
'roper lights on bicycles and to
irgc bicyclists to keep well to the
'right side of the street, hut such
accidents prove that we must con
tinue to stress these warnings in
our campaign for traffic safety,”
Mr. Snell said.
Nearly 90 percent of the auto-
aiobile-hicycle fatalities during the
six-months period were persons
between the ages of 5 and 24
years, but one elderly cyclist was
killed when he was struck while
trying to cross a street.
“A second’s indecision on the
Dari of. the bicycle rider or the
driver can cause a fatal accident
when the two meet at an intersec
tion or when a bicycle rider at-
t mpts to cross a busy street or
highway,” Snell said. —“ For that
-eason, very young children and
riderly persons are advised to dis
mount and walk while crossing
h?avily traveled thoroughfares.
But even while pushing a wheel,
'aution must be observed,... One
v uth was killed recently when he
was pushing his bicycle up a hill.
He was walking on the right side
af the road, going with traffic, and
wait struck from behind by a car,
whose driver was blinded by the
glaring headlights of a car coming
from the opposite direction.”
Most youngsters enjoy coasting
’own hills but one girl met trage-
ly in this manner this year. Coast-
r g down a steep hill, the road bo
ng covered with loose gravel, she
washed into the side of a car that

by the secretary of state reveal.
One boy met death this year when

way to his home, he cut across the
street and rode directly into the

“When bicycles first became
•»opular, they were considered some
’lung of a menace, frightening
horses and endangering pedestrians
bocause of their ‘speed’,” Snell said.
In those days regulations were
iesigned to protect others from
the bicycles. With the coming of
■■utomobiles the situation changed
and it is now necessary to protect
he bicyclist from others. In some
»‘aces certain traffic lanes are de

use of cyclists.---------------
“Th? rapid increase in the num
ber of bicycles now in use has
brought the problem to the atten
tion of society more vividly than
even before and it is quite possible
that future« engineering may con
sider the safety of the bicycl?
/rider. However, a t present, we
must concentrate on educating
those who ride bicycles to observe
safe practices which will keep
them out of accidents.
“Observing traft?c rules as they
apply to automobiles, riding in
single file instead of two or more
abreast, giving the pedestrians the
right o f way at cross walks, equip«
ping the wheel with proper front
and rear lights and using caution
and common sense at all times will
cut down the death toll from auto
mobile-bicycle accidents.”
