AUTO ACCIDENT
NEAR SUNNYSIDE

j. w. Council, travelling salesman
of Seattle, washington, reported last
Wednesday morning of having his
Ford coupe run completely off the
road by speeding tourist driving
an Oldsmobile coupe, near sunny
side. Mr.. Council stated that in
passing him the Odds ran him COM
pletely off the road and into
barbed wire fence and did not even
stop to see if he was hurt. He was
unable to distinguish the license
number of the passing car as 1t was
travelling at a gait of about sixty
miles per hour. The total disregard
OF traffic regulations as to passing
cars and speed limits are becoming
a nuisance on the Mountain Home
Boise road and some provision should
be made for patroling the road for
few weeks and let the tourist under
stand that he has to respect the traf-
fic regulations of the State of Idaho
as well as other states that he may
happen to pass through.
