High Speeds Fatal
A pretty good argument that speed is (he cause of most seed |
dents, especially those of a fatal nature, is demonstrated in the
comparion of accidents made by the state authorities between the |
Turnpikt and the Lincoln and William Penn Highways, the three
most Jira veled routes in the state. During 18560, the wrnpike, which |
allows ‘speeds up to 70 miles an hour, had the most fatal accidents,
88, chieily because when a wreck does occur on the high-speed
highway the car occupants receive fatal injuries
Oui the William Penn Highway, where speed is restricted to
50 miles and to 35 miles an hour in maiy places, the deaths
Jat your numbered 56. On the Lincoln Highway where lowér
Speeds are required deaths nombered 48. On h cf theses routes
Bower, the number of non-fatal sccidents was mich her
than on the superhighway. All of which means that h
on the super-highway make most of the scridents fatal
