Common Sense At

Not least among the prob
lens encountered in the effort
to reduce automobile accidents
is that of the railroad grade
crossing, with its annual toll Of
approximately 1000 lives and
some 5000 non-fatal casual.
ties, says Insurance Field.
Common sense would counsel
that man stop and look before
crossing a railroad track. AS
automobile drivers will not do
this voluntarily, why not make
it unlawful to cross a track with
out coming to dead stop. This
would certainly be a humanita-
rian piece of legislation, and
would be no expense to the tax
payers. AS a matter of fact it
would be money maker for
public treasures due to fines
collected for failure to obey the
law. Most of all, the lives of
many persons would be saved
who would otherwise carelessly
cross the track.
Those states which have stop
laws have reduced the number
of casualties at grade crossings.
Georgia should enact such a
law.
