Accidents don't Just happen
they are caused. This was the
conclusion reached by the Sec
retary of State's Traffic Safe
ty diTision after a survey of
Oregon records for the past
year.
Last year's statistics again
proved the fact that most ac
cidents could have been avoid
ed, according to the division.
Sixty-four percent of all fatal
and 75 of the non fatal ac
cidents occurred when the
weather was clear, road sur
face dry. Over 79 Involved
passenger cars.
Eighty three percent of the
cars involved in fatal accidents
were traveling in a straight
ahead direction. Of all the
cars involved in fatal acci
dents, less than five percent
had any mechanical defect A
violation of a traffic law was
noted in 99 percent of all mis
haps, which proves the point
that traffic accidents are, in
the main, caused by downright
carelessness and an exceeding
ly high disregard for common
sense driving rules, according
to the Division.

Maybe
This'll Wake Us Up!
Because s couple of thoughtless
drivers threw s newspaper out of
their car yesterday. Miss Gilbert,
our school principal, nearly had a
bad accident.
She was following them on the
highway and the paper flattened
over her windshield, so she couldn't
see. In a minute her little coupe
was across the line right in the
path of an oncoming trailer-truck.
It missed... but only just!
The parties were recognized and
soon as I heard about it I ran over
to Sheriff Harper demanded t'.;y
be brought up on charges. But
Harper says: "Hold on, Joe. Let's
talk this out, over supper and a
glass of beer at Andy's."
He pointed out that those men
aren't criminals. Just careless, like
a lot of us seem to be getting these
days, judging from the trash you
see along roadsides. From where I
sit, this near accident may be the
lesson we need to make us ties lit
tering our roads and start show
ing a little tolerant consideration
for our neighbors !
