RECKLESS DRIVERS.


To tAe Editor, The Washington Hersn:
As your paper has always been
foremost in the current events AND
always takes interest in the move
ments to better the conditions Of
our city, I am going to try and
explain TO you the results OF the
safety first week as ] saw them.
l am a motorman for the washing
ton Railway & Electric Co.. working
out of the lexington car barn.
have been watching the drivers
Of the different concerns Of the
city and / thought that making
public the names of concerns that
hire reckless drivers might help 10
make them more strict with their
drivers. help to prevent further
accidents and better traffic condi-
tions.
/ find out that the driver. Of
mail wagons are among the worst
in the city. They don't seem to
have any respect for any kind OF
law OF rule at any time. They
drive by standing cars loading or
unloading passengers at a fast
gait, stop their machine on the
crosswalks while collecting mail
from mail boxes and a great many
times let their machines stand
away from the curbs so that the
street cars can't pass. They jump
out in front OF q car and will stay
on the track several blocks. hold
ing a car back and breaking up
schedules. At North Capitol and
G street where they come out Of
the alley, they drive with such
speed that they could not stop II
any danger should arise.
Next 1 find the coIored drivers
of the U. S. q. NJ. c. Department at
lexington place and Florida avenue
very reckless. driving at high
speed and cutting short corners all
the time They cut in and out OF
the line OF traffic in front of fast
moving cars at an alarming rate
of speed
The American Express Co. drivers
are the worst in the downtown Soc
tions. They will stop and back into
q curb without any warning what
ever. They will leave their trucks
standing nearly on the tracks. hold
the cars for three and four minutes
at a time. and then stick their
tongues out and laugh at you be-
cause they have held you and are
able to do so.
IL would take too much space to
tell the faults OF all. but aru
going to name the concerns who
j have taken particular notice Of
and whom fnd TO be the worst
traffic violators:
The Velvet Kind Ice Cream Co;
The NARROW Coal Co.; The Pslsis
Royal Co.; The American Ice Co.
Geo. Oysters MIX Co.; The John
wilkins Coffee Co.: The National
Biscuit Co.; The Union Transfer
Co.; The Corby Bread Co; The Gold
epberg Co.
The drivers Of these concerns
claim are reckless In running by
cars. cutting short corners. stopping
on crossvalks and driving across
in fNnt of fast moving cars.
1 would think that IL some one
of influence would call Il TO the
attention of the heads Of these
concerns. they might be able 20
talk to their drivers and get then
to use q little Judgment
j suppose n was TO give my
name % the drivers could get hold
Of me they would make IL hot for
me. but am telling the truth j
am going 20 keep q further lookout
and IL there IL no change in these
drivers I will ask you 20 publish
their names again.
II you care 20 publish this
thank you- a nOTORnkk
