EXPERT" DRIVER
MENACE AND PEST

That the sO-called expert" driver
is one of the most exasperating pests
of motordom and is chiefly respon-
sibie for the pedestrians animosity
toward the motorist, is the editorial
belief of American Motorisf, official
journal of the A. A. A., which pub
fishes some warnings on the subject
in the current issue.
This is how the American Motorist
views the expert" dricer:
Speaking of the expert We do
not think of the painstaking mechanic
who, by dint of study and experience
gained in actual practice. familarizes
himself with motor cars until he is
able TO obtain from them the maxi
mum service with minimum neces-
lsity for repair and adjustment. Him
we would call the expert motorist.
But we have in mind the fellow who
is an expert driver. nothing else
expert" Rarely Owns Car
1T is almost needless to say that
since the exhibition in stunts in driy-
ing is apt to be an expensive habit,
the expert driver is rarely found
among the owners. Usually he has
graduated from the washstand in a
garage, while sometimes he is a spe-
cimen OF the so-called natural-born
mechanic species that neither me-
chanical progress nor scientific train
ing seems TO have been able to ex-
terminte. 1t is the expert driver who
IS chiefly responsible for the animos-
| ity of the pedestrian against the mo-
torlst 1t is he who scares old ladies
into Mysteries while bearing down
upon them with a rush, only to clap
on his brakes with a bang and bring
his year TO a stop half an inch from
the pedestrians shin.
IF you want to watch him, stand
in front of a busy garage for awhile
and you will have ample opportunity
to observe his doings. He will come
out of the garage at full tilt, clear
the opposite>cur by ripping the steer
ing gear around with all his might
and disappear around the next cor
ner in similar fashion.
When he returns he will rush
down the block at a speed of fifty
miles an hour, throw on his brakes
some eight or ten feet from the stop
ping point, and bring his car to q
halt almost within its own length
| ali of which, of course, looks very
clever to the expert driver and costs
money for repairs and excessive de.
terioration to the owners. This sori
of driver is the one to whom an open
muffier is music in the ears; who
| imagines himself a miniature Oldfield
IF you do not drive your car your
self. beware of the expert driver, OF
at least nip his ambitions early in the
lnrncaedingS"

plan, there would be bond issue of
fifteen million dollars, or an expendi-
ture, of 81 500 900 each year for period
Of ten years. 1t also means that roads

Senator Mcintosh, of Baltimore
county. presided over the conference,
and among the first speakers was
Senator Brady, of Anne Arundel In
stancing the value of good roads to a
community, Senator Brady referred to
the polis-Baltimor boulevard,
the bill providing for the construction
OF which was introduced by him ten
years ago. He also made reference to
the fact that the Severn river bridge is
part of this highway, and the South
Maryland roadway, the two links form
ing one of the most important OF the
State arteries of roads.
Senator Brady said that on the
basis of division as suggested, by
which 100 miles of roads would be
built each year, only between 3h and
miles would be built each year in
Anna Arundel. Suppose" asked
Senator Brady. Anne Arundel should
desise to build Is miles each year,"
To this, Governor Richie replied:
The mileage in each county is a ques-
ton of detail. II Anne Arundel goes
beyond the fund allotted. of course.
that is Anne Arunders business"
Senator Brady also asked whether the
main arteries agreed upon fen years
ago would be built. Chairman Zouck.
of the Roads Commission, answered
this by saying they would be connect
ed IL provision is made for such con-
struction
1t was pointed out, in the course of
the discussions, that the cost of high
grade road construction now is $50, 1000
or more per mile, and a large major
ity of the Senators and Delegates pres
ent took the view that the high cost
would be better economy in the long
run .

ZOuck Outlines Plans

Tbs first speaker called upon by the
Governor was Chairman Frank II
Zouck. of the State Roads Commission
who was asked to explain the PROPOSE
ton. The Governor later said that the
program of road building in his in
augural address had been suggested
chiefly by Mr.. Zouck.
AS has been previously stated. the
program is in effect as follows: That
the State should match the Federal ap-
preparation of $3.50 900. making 81, 700,-
600 a year for ten years. for building
trunk lines and post roads, and should
further provide a fund of $750,000 a
year. with which lateral roads would
be built, provided the counties, should
match this sum fifty-ffty The State
would provide the money by bond
issue of 81 100000 year for ten years,
furnishing the extra 100000 neces-
saryato make up the $1.600,000 from
the general taxation fund.
