D., June la an appeal to motorists to "slow down at sundown," the American Automobile association today pointed out that night accidents now account for nearly 60 percont of all motor fatalities and are on the Increase as twilight rides and vacation motor ing bring more automobiles on the highways. "With motor deaths already run nlng 3S percent ahead of last year, and May and June normally a period for a sharp upward trend that lants throughout the year," said Thos. P, Henry of Detroit, president of the AAA, "motorists should exerciao ex treme caution In night driving. That accidents are more serious after dark, Is indicated by the fact that one out of every 20 Injuries prove fatal aa compared to about one out of 40 during daylight hours. "Numerous factors enter into the seriousness of night accidents. Head lights, Including those In the best of condition, do not give as much sight distance ahead as the motorist has In the daytime. Defective lights and tests show that a great pro portion of cars have some defect in headlights add to the hazards. Warning signs and pedestrians cannot be aa easily distinguished. Many mo torlsts drlvo even faster at night, with the result that crashes are more serl , ous. And heavy commercial use of the highways, particularly in the Tlclntty or large cities, adds to the after-dark dangers on the road for the motorist who takes a chance." Reducing speed by fully one-third, as compared to daylight speeds and driving "within the lights" that is. at a speed to make possible a com plete stop within the distance In which all objects are clearly distin guishable were advanced by the AAA at sound practices for night driving. The statement continues: "There Is much promise that night driving will eventually be made safer by removal of some of the present hazards. Engineers are now exper imenting with improved headlights designed to not only Increase sight distances, but also minimize glare. Experiments with highway Illumina tion will provide a bnsla for deciding whether the expenditures Involved would bo Justified by the effect on. accident reduction.
