Statistics complied by safe ty experts indicate such crash es account for about 4,000 of the estimated 38,000 lives lost annually in motor vehicle ac cidents. High-speed toll road author ities, notably those operating the state turnpikes in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, are turning increasingly to steel median beam type guard rails to prevent head-on collisions of vehicles crossing into op posite lanes of on-coming traffic. The New Jersey turnpike, most heavily travelled toll road in the nation, has not experienced one fatality due to head-on collisions since in stallation of a metal guard over its 118-mile course, ac cording to Joseph Morecraft Jr., chairman of the Turnpike authority. - The 22 -year -old Pennsyl vania turnpike, oldest of all toll roads in the United States, recently passed the half-way mark in a program to install steel guard rails on its 470 mile route. Tests by California slate highway authorities with sev eral types of steel dividers on heavily - travelled freeways showed practical elimination of head-on accidents, highway officials said.
