but the people who know the most about night drive the man who buying their records of safety have earned a place at the top of the lives of the man who drives a heavy interstate truck two nights of the highway in every sense of the word these truckers go out of their way to help others on the road the driving public has come to know them as the most courteous drivers on the highway and with all of this the of us families some of the finest safety records in the country their cross country truckers have come to find themselves for the most part to driving at night and since night driving offers more dangerous problem these drivers over a period of years have become the most expert night drivers in the world some time ago the interstate commerce commission working in cooperation with the trucking companies established a set of safety regs relations designed to make the interstate partners the safest driver on the highway bridges enforcement of these regulations brought the desired result for dependability indifference courtesy and skill we will look far before we find a class of drivers who handle themselves and their deal calls with greater safety then the man behind the wheel of the big interstate trucks to help all drivers understand some of the problems of late night driving which these men have learned from many years of experience and to make after darn driving a real player to all we offer is the principles of night writing which have been developed by the interstate trackers and which you have helped them w destinations hundreds of miles away and the man who's going to tool one of these big babies over the night roads stuff the shipping bill into his pocket climbs into is cab with no more concern than if he were just going to the corner grocery and rolls up to face the night and the highway no matter what emergency he may have to meet and conquer he'll bring in his loans on time meeting a schedule that requires the utmost care and safety is driving up night these men know that night driving is different from day driving and they understand the principles of safe night driving let's see for ourselves what some of these principles are  white cat and a black cat both seem grey in the dark and so do arms and hands and fingers because what we see depends on how much light there is to see by so  driving at night use your stop light as well as hand signals if this man has a bright light flashed in his eyes he is momentarily blinded but fortunately nature has given our eye is adjustable openings which soon automatically close in a bright light like this but while it takes the pupils of the eye is only about one second to close up it takes them sixty seconds to open wide again after the bright light is gone expert night drivers know this and therefore always obey the rule dim your lights when passing even if the other fellow doesn't them his the top of this table like a paved road or any such drive service absolves a great deal of glare from headlights and road lights that drive service isn't shiny enough to reflect much light but if the surface becomes wet the water reply could light up into the driver's eyes making it difficult to see so the safe night driver has another rule slow down on wet pavement all these words are equally prominent bunny if one of them isn't always there we suddenly notice it more than any of the others it is natural for people to notice things more when they are not only was there the night driver bases an important rule on this principle blame your stop light with your br bright the road is like them but no matter how bright our headlights may be they give us only a limited amount of road to drive on on hills the road we have to drive on is even shorter and on curves we cannot always see the road that lies before us when we are driving along at night we are safe only so long as we can stop within the distance we can see ahead if we are driving too fast for safety we will not be able to stop within the limits of the road that we can see at night though don't we can safely drive our moves along only within the path of our headlights so  night drivers always remember the rules keep within your headlight beam and last of all mr and mrs jones illustrate a night driving principle which is familiar to all of us they have been driving until late at night and still have sixty miles to go mrs jones is anxious to get home and wants mr jones to finish that snack and get back to is doctor all right says mr jones it's just a case of keeping awake for another hour or so all let's go look up mr jones you didn't see that chair did you well mr jones here's a suggestion there are some dandy tourists cabins across the road and a nice clean bed with look pretty good right now that's the idea of mr jones you'll be home first thing in the morning and say don't drive when i'm sleepy and so if we remember these simple rule the rules that govern the most expert knife drivers in the world we too can make a fine safety record for ourselves and fully enjoy the pleasures of night driving
