Speed Is Cause
Of Most Serious
Ruto Accidents
Two Out Of Three
Traffic Arrests
Are For Speeding
drivers arrested on Pennsylvania
roads for traffic violations are
nabbed for speeding because they
are potential killers, even though
they may regard racing along the
highways as an innocent sport or
thrill, T. Elmer Transeau, state di-
rector of highway safety, declared
recently.
Emphasizing that speed
worst killer of men, women and
children in traffic accidents, Mr.
Transeau urged Pennsylvania driv-
ers to slow down before they kill
or are killed in traffic accidents re-
sulting from excessive speeds.
“If the element of speed could be
reduced on the highways, traffic
deaths would also be reduced,” said
the state highway safety chief, “and
a wider enforcement of the present
speed laws, if it were possible,
would probably accomplish the
same results. But it would be
physically impossible for any police
force to keep pace with the great
increase in the number of motor
vehicles and operators of the past
decade. For this reason our high-
ways cannot be sufficiently pa-
trolled to curb the antics of the
selfish driver. Speed arrests in
Pennsylvania exceed 65 percent of
the total traffic arrests. Unfortu-
nately, it is the speeder who is not
caught who is the killer on our
highways.
“Driver education and training
is the
| is being stressed more than ever,
but who ever hears of an operator,
‘aside from the professional driver,
being taught to drive at speeds up
to 75 miles an hour or more. Al-
though the average operator is not
physically or mentally equipped to
cope with such speeds and although
our highways were not designed to
be used as race tracks, many of our
‘highway maniacs’ believe them-
selves endowed with reactions and
skills that are usually found only
in a professional driver.”
Mr. Transeau cited Pennsyl-
vania's “mest tragic accident” of
recent years as an example of the
killing power of the automobile
when it is going too fast. Six

According to Thomas N. Boate,
accident prevention department
‘manager of the Association of Cas-
ualty and Surety Companies, about
one in every six fatalities on the
highways occurs in a multi-fatal
accident, usually in head-on colli-
sions. The Association is cooperat-
ing with .the Pennsylvania News-
paper Publishers’ Association and
other state - and regional press
groups this year in an effort to
reduce the highway toll of death
and injury. More than 9,000 daily
and weekly newspapers are partici-
pating in the campaign. Speed is
the No. 1 target of the 1952 Na-
tional Newspaper Highway Safety
Program, Mr. Boate said, because
approximately 50 percent of all
traffic deaths result from speeding.
