TRAFFIC COMMITTEE
TAKES SURVEY
A survey taken by the Student
Traffic Control Committee has re
turned several interesting items of
information.
While many students are being
fined for violation of traffic rules,
it is surprising to discover how
many of the students are not even
aware of the reasons for these
fines. Furthermore, many students
are not even aware that certain vio
lations exist.
The majority of participants in
the survey were unaware: I) of
penalties for ignoring traffictickets,
2) that additional fees will be as
sessed if a car has to be identified
through outside sources, and 3)
that a car can be legally towed a
way if it is in violation of traffic
regulations.
Most students felt that traffic
violations should be handled through
a traffic court. They also felt that
only sophomores and veterans
should be allotted parking space in
the upper lot.
Negative replies were handed
down by the larger portion of the
students on 1 the question of whether
it is fair to pick freshman at random
to be permitted upper lot parking
privileges, and whether freshman
should be assigned to the upper lot
according to cumulative average.
