Oregon Traffic
Deaths
A series of weekly articles on
the problem of Highway Safety
by Earl Snell, Secretary of State.
The relation of speed to accidents
is something that is debated hotly
whenever the matter is discussed.
Many good drivers maintain that
speed in itself is not a major acci
dent cause, and they have some good
arguments in support of their case.
But whether or not the high speeds
cause the accidents, there can be no
argument on one most important
phase of the question speed causes
the fatalities.
The chances of a fatal accident
increase rapidly as the speed mounts.
In all motor vehicle accidents it is
estimated that there are 35 injuries
to every fatality. In accidents at
speeds up to 20 miles per hour there
are 61 non fatal accidents to every
fatality. But in speeds of fifty or
more miles per hour one accident in
eleven is fatal, according to the best
information obtainable by the Na
tional Safety council.
All people who are competent to
drive a car at a reasonable rate of
speed and under favorable condi
tions are not qualified to become
race drivers. The emergency that re
quires quick thinking and quick ac
tion at 40 miles an hour is much
more of an emergency at 60. The
streets and highways are for the use
of everyone who can meet a reason
able test as a driver, and they must
be made safer for the average driver
and the pedestrian. I am convinced
that this can be accomplished by the
setting of a definite top speed limit,
with some variation throughout the
state, depending upon the nature of
the highways.
Experience has demonstrated that
such a speed limit will help elimin
ate Oregon's traffic deaths.
