You NsYer Can Tell

Considerable discussion is arising
az to the proper way to test drivers
for their fitness to operate cars. A
taxi driver test involves some
electrical rays and buyers to en-
able psychologists to study the ap-
pIicants nerve-fear reactions, while
a commonsense business man says
that any motor vehicle inspector
ought to be able to tell whether a
man Is safe at the wheel just by
looking at him. Then the business
man goes right out and tumbles for
a gold brick salesman. The main
trouble with driver tests Is that it's
still true that you never can tell.

You Should Do Better

Many persons who are driving
cars at disadvantage have much to
teach the average driver. This Is
particularly well illustrated In the
case OF the man who is handicapped

How, for instance, does deaf
driver know whether his engine is
running? suppose 1t should stall.
Would he know It before he let in

available?

Statistics are beginning to tell of
the great danger in motoring IN fol-
low the leader style. Large motor
parties frequently divide into Sc
tions, travelling caravan fashion, and
delude themselves into believing
that there Is safety in numbers.
Members of such parties assume
that If the first car crosses a rail-
road crossing in safety the second
and third cars should be equally
successful but seldom reason that If
the first car has come close to dan
ger the second car is almost certain
to be the real victim.
II you must travel as a caravan
keep a considerable distance apart
and operate your car as separate
unit. Drivers cannot afford to run
the risk of crossing train tracks in
groups, particularly where express
trains come from the horizon to the
crossing in less time than it takes
to crank a stalled motor.

Conclusive Evidence

Recent disclosures made by the
Bureau of Standards at Washington
prove conclusively that emergency
brakes are not properly designed.
and that the next big step in
deceleration Is to design an
emergency brake that will stand as
much neglect as service brakes.
Tests showed that of 90 service
brakes investigated IS were poor
while of 73 emergency brakes 40
were virtually useless. At 20 miles
an hour the poorest foot brake stop
ped its car in so feet. the pool st
emergency brake in 600 feet. Why
this vast difference unless the brakes
were originally of great variation in
efficiency?
