A National Hatty cou n cil survey
lists the seven most Im portant causes
o f fatal accidents. In order, as fo l­
low s: Exceeding speed Hamit or
driving too fast for road and weather
con d ition s; driving on w rong side
o f the road ; disregardin g stop sign*
and sign als; usurping right o f w ay;
cutting in; passing on hills and
cu rves; failure to signal for stopping
and turning.
•
These driving errors cause the
great bulk o f all serious accidents,
and the Ilrst Is by far the worst.
Every one o f them is a human error
— and every accident they produce
could be prevented if individual
drivers
would observe the most
elem entary rules o f caution and
proper driving.
In con clu sion , here is one m ore
fact you might think over next tim e
you feel the urg<- to step on It: At 20
miles per hour, one accident in 61
I* fatal, while at 50 or m ore miles
per hour, one accident in every 1
