During the period from which these
figures We're taken. there were 635 au-
tomobile accidents in New Jersey; S61
In New York State, outside of the
city of New York. and 1.50S in that
city. Following these accidents there
were 101 arrests in New Jersey, 81 in
New York State and SO in New York
city. In other words, one accident in
six in New Jersey was followed by
the detention of the driver, while in
New York State as a whole, only one
accident in 35 was followed by an ar
rest. It would seem. therefore, that a
driver in New York State had four
chances to become involved in an ac-
cident without danger to himself as
compared with a driver in New Jer-
sey, and that perhaps a general
knowledge among drivers of the rela-
tive enforcement of the law in the two
States was responsible in large part
for the lower accident rate In the
State where more strict enforcement
seems to be the rule.
