The gasoline shortage and
(he national Si mph speed
limit arc considered the
principal reasons why traffic
deaths have dropped more
than 10,000 since 1872
Nevertheless, traffic
crashes have killed more
than 2 million Americans
since the first death was
recorded in 1899 In this
Bicentennial Year alone,
fatalities arc expected to
exceed the number of
Revolutionary War battle
deaths by more than 10
times.
The number of crash
deaths is influenced by
numerous accident exposure
factors which, in com
bination, increase or reduce
the chance of fatality.
The gasoline shortage
reduced deaths because
fewer people were travelling
fewer miles. The 55 mph
speed limit is cutting deaths
because traffic moves at a
more uniform pace,
reducing the chance of
collision. And at lower
speeds crash injuries are
less severe.
Many factors affect the
chance of a fatal accident,
like nighttime driving
conditions, the safety
features built into a roadway
or vehicle, even the weather.
Several measurement
rates have been developed to
READY
SUPERIOR
- for any rotation or
grain, forage,

Lower speed limits
paying off
compare the severity of the
crash problem under dif
ferent risk conditions and to
show trends While not
perfect, the most familiar of
these is the Mileage Death
Rate, or MDR, which is the
number of fatalities per 100
million vehicle miles of
travel
The following chart
illustrates trends In traffic
deaths, vehicle mileage and
the MDR during the last 25
years
In the 22 years preceding
1973, vehicle mileage in
creased an average of 5.0
percent per year, deaths 2.0
percent per year. Thus the
MDR declined by more than
half.
Since 1973, mileage has
dropped and rebounded.

Deaths arc down
dramatically, and the MDR
haa dropped nearly n full
point to 3 47, lowest In
history
To emphasize the Im
portance of reduction In the
MDR, If the rate had stayed
at the 1950 level of 7.59
deaths last year would have
totaled nearly 100,000 instead
of the actual 45,600. This
reduction in deaths occurred
despite a three-fold increase
in exposure associated with
vehicle mileage during the
25-year span.
The following table shows
the relative hazard for 1974
under daytime and nighttim
e conditions in both urban
and rural areas.
The team was ac
companied to Springfield by
their coach, County Agent
John Schwartz. They will
now be going to Louisville,
Kentucky to participate in
the National 4-H Poultry
Judging Contest in
November. The Adams
County Poultry Association
and the Pennsylvania
Poultry Federation spon
sored the team by providing
travel expense funds.
