New Hiway
Law Now
In Effect
Slowpoke drivers who re
fuse to let other drivers pass
will now face a penalty of
up to $100 or 10 days impris
onment.
The new law, which took
effect Wednesday, September
13, requires slow moving ve
hicles on two-lane roads to
pull over at the first op
portunity and let faster traf
fic pass. On multi lane high
ways, such as free ways, slow
moving vehicles must stay
in the right lane—leaving the
left lane clear for cars mov
ing at faster speeds.
How do you know if you’re
a slow driver? Holly Hol
comb, Superintendent of the
Oregon State Police, says,
"You will probably be con
sidered a slow moving vehi
cle anytime you travel slow
er than the normal flow of
traffic and cause a string of
cars to pile up behind you..
When this happens, it’s time
to pull over and let faster
traffic pass you at the first
safe spot to do so.”
Holcomb said he expects
the new law to curb the great
number of accidents that oc-
ur when other drivers be
come impatient and take fool
ish chances in passing the
slow driver. “While the slow
driver doesn’t always be
come involved in accidents
himself,” said Holcomb, "he
does cause other drivers to
have accidents.”
The new law gives the
slow driver a choice: He can
drive with the prevailing
speed of the other traffic, or
he can pull over to let traf
fic pass.

Loken of Detroit was taken
to Santiam Memorial hospital
in Stayton Friday evening for
medical attention following a
sting from a yellow jacket.
The sting was followed by
a breaking out of a rash and
considerable swelling.
Mrs. Loken said the doctor
told her there is a capsule
that can be taken immediate
ly after the sting which will
counteract
the
reaction;
which otherwise might be
fatal. It might be wise to
have a few of these on hand
