HEALTH TEST FOR
AUTO DRIVERS

MADISON, Wis. Nov. IA pro-
posal to require all automobile driv-
ers to pass a medical examination as
we'll as an examination for ability to
drive is not looked upon favorably by
state highway officials here. The
plan was preached as a possible solu-
ton for the growing accident prob
lem on Wisconsin highways.
"a medical examination would be
almost worthless" said Mr.. M. M.
isabella, of the Wisconsin Highway
Commission in discussing the propos-
ed plan. Practically all accidents
are caused by inexperienced and reck-
less drivers on straight roads"
Supporters of the plan argue that
qualities Of reflection and judgment
are as necessary for automobile driv-
ing as for voting and that licenses
should therefore not be issued to per-
sons under FL. Those afflicted with
imperfect eyesight or hearing should
be required to submit to an annual
examination. One-handed and one
armed people, epileptics, alcoholics,
drunkards, they say, should be re-
fused a permit. All holders of
permits would be requested to SUBJ
NIT to an annual excal committee
every three years for examination of
the heart, arteries and nervous sys-
tenn.
Accidents caused by physical de-
fects are extremely rare in the state
highway commissions records. One
driver had poor eyesight, another
an epileptic fit, and several showed
a predisposition to fall asleep while
driving. These cases are so few
that a physical examination is hard
ly warranted, officials state.
Out of 1913 accidents on Wisconsin
highways in September for instance,
in which IL people were killed, al
were due to recklessness and care
lessness on straight roads. Nine
accident were said to have been
caused by Intoxicated drivers 1t
was pointed out that even though an
applicant for driving license might
show no signs of alcoholism at an
examination, there is no guarantee
that he will not become intoxicated
while driving.
The Academy of Medicine at Paris
recently appointed committee to
act upon the question of medical ex-
animation for automobile drivers.
If it's findings are convincing, a new
statute may be drawn up.
