Impaired Vision.

The writer has seen any number
of ears on the road In rainy weather
and no protection whatever afforded
the driver against accidents due TO
Impaired vision. Rain on the wind
shield is no excuse. The shield should
be kept clear. The fact that the side
curtains are up and you canno see
well TO the rear or to either side
doesn't bring a life back. Slow down
all sides wait until the rain is owe
or drive with extreme caution.
In going dOwn steep grades use the
engine as 1: brake by shifting into
second or first speed. Shut off the ig-
milton If you wish to get still better
when you get near the bottom of the
grade. This saves the brakes and
makes IL easy to control the car on
the hill. Drive slowly up grades.
Don't try to make every hill in high
as fast as the car can travel. Remem-
Der there are other users of the road.
AT night think of the brightness OF
the head lamps. Do not confuse an
oncoming driver with bright lights.
Pass him with dimmerS on, Keep as
far 10 the right as you can and drive
slowly so as to avoid frightening the
other driver. Your statement that he
shouldn't get frightened because you
pair bones or a v lives.

Skiddins Is Dangerous.

On a wet road skidding is the most
dangerous thing likely to happen, hut
skidding becomes dangerous only il
the car is travelling at speed. A slow
car can easily be stopped or even If
1t does not stop when the brakes are
applied, at least the impact does lit
tie If any harm. Without tire chains,
brakes equally adjusted or other as
surtnce that the car will stay straight
on a wet road, don't take the chance.
Regardless of safety devices drive
slowly, apply the brakes intermittent
ly, not harshly. II you know the car
is a chronic "skidder" reduce the mag
nitude as much as possible by shifting
into second. IF there isn't time to
shift into second or If o lose your
head you are at fault. Learn TO con
troll q CIR that is skidding. The rule
Is, steer with the skid. so as to at
tempt to straighten out the car. The
average driver forgets about every
thing and presses as hard as he can
on the clutch and brake pedals. Use
the brakes alone and look ahead with
a view TO keeping the car from strIk-
ing an object.
