No Traffic Violation
Insignificant i n Oregon
Ashland - "No traffic vto
lation is insignificant in Ore
gon," declared Mrs. Frances
Gallatin, Justice of the peace,
when she addressed the Ash
land Soroptimist club Friday
noon.
The problem of death and
Injury on the state's high
ways has become of major
concern and drastic measures
must be taken if the mount
ing toll is to be curbed, snid
the Ashland magistrate. She
cited the record of 297 traf- J
fie deaths in Oregon during
the first seven months of
1963 - an all . time high.
According to the speaker,
speed is the biggest killer but
public apathy has become a
serious problem. License sus
pension is a strong deterrent
and more effective than fines.
She explained Oregon's basic
rule which c: uses much con
fusion to drivers who have
different Interpretations for
"being in control of one's car
and reasonable conditions,
etc."
Contrary to general belief
Oregon does not use fines for
general revenue, there are no
arrest quotas. Compliance
with traffic laws, drivers'
clinics, strict enforcement and
license suspension arc all ad
vocated by the Justice of the
peace, who is a past president
of the club which she addressed.
