The Pleroe-Alten Motor Company.

winter "safety through service" check

and at the same time are launching
a sale of "winterized" used cars, ac
cording to h. C. Taylor, head of the
firm. "Winterized" used ears are thor
oughly conditioned seven ways for
protection even In zero weather and

guaranteeing dependable value and

to the contribution made by proper

lor said.
Continuing, he said, "a special
check-up procedure is now used by
Pierce-Allen Motor company as stand
ard inspection of all cars entering the
service department. Inspection and
testing of factors affecting visibility,
such as headlights, rear-view mirror,
windows and windshield wipers. Safe
driving depends on intelligent oper

eered into the car.
"The entire 'safety through service
program la in accordance with the
plans recently developed by the Au
t emotive Safety Foundation to elim
inate driving hazards.
Illumination Lack
Cited as Accident
Cause by Officials
Luck of proper Illumination and
the absence of aldew&lka were cited
by Robert Maloy of the New Tork
State Motor Vehicle bureau as tb
only two factors directly under pub
lie control which explain why a pre
ponderance of fatal traffic accidents
oocur on rural highways after dark.
Mr. Maloy disclosed that 1.M1 of
the 2.170 fatalities for the first nine
months of 1937 resulted from acci
dent outeide of New York City.
"Accident Increase In severity, as
the population decreases," ha stated.
"For example, only, one of every 47
New York City accident la fatsa com
pared to one of every 37 in upstate
cities, and one of every 11 In rural
New York."
"The let-down after driving to con-'
gested areas, and the absence of traf
fic control such as in the city, tempt
the motorist to drive fast and t the
same time relax his mind," Mr. Maloy
said In explanation, and summarised
the following reasons for a greater
number of accidents and fatalities In
upstate regions:
1. Lack of congested traffic and
traffic control,
3. Lack of proper Illumination of
rural roads at night (lees than 300
miles of state highway axe Illumin
ated). 3. Absence of sidewalks in many
sections, forcing pedestrians to walk
in the road.
4. Fatigue of truck drivers who are
longer on upstate roada than In New
York City.
6. The desire for speed In the rural
sections by youthful automobile own
ers. Statistics for the nation show that
In 1036 23.000 of AO per cent of the
37.800 traffic fatalities occurred after
dark, and because only one out of
every four or five cars is then on
the road night driving la Indicated
to be six to seven times aa dangerous
as driving In daylight. Close to 70 per
cent of the total fatal accidents took
place in rural sections.
