SWEEPING TURNS
is BAD DRIVING
Slows Up Traffic in Rear
and Is Difficult to Do,
Says Expert.

Motorists who have been accus-
toned to making sweeping left turns.
to the chagrin and delay Of all other
drivers behind, can listen with advan-
tage to IL. NJ. Lucius, secretary OF the
Automobile Club of Maryland. who
prescribes a simple formula. for over
coming this driving deficiency Dis
cusslng the subject, Mr.. Lucius says !:
AT every corner we find some driv-
err who gets himself into a jam and
holds up the whole traffic stream be-
cause he pulls to the right to make
left-hand turn and to the left to
make right-hand turn.
Il have spoken about this many
times, but, from the number Of peo-
pie who still make the mistake, it will
not hurt TO discuss 1t again.
"What puzzles me Is that every mo-
torlst who has been driving longer
than a month has not discovered the
little secret long ago. 1t would seem
that the difficulties they get Into
would show them their mistakes.
Want Plenty OF Room.
1.-THE Instinct that prompts them To
pull wide for a corner. Of course, is
easy to see. They want plenty of
room to make the turn. But what
can't understand Is that these drivers
haven't found that the turning radius
on present-day automobiles has de-
creased to a point where short turn
can be taken with the longest car.
Here Is the trick In nutshell:
BY pulling to the left-center for
left-hand turn. no one will cut you Off
by passing on your left. Straight and
right-hand traffic will go by on your
right and you can watch your chance
to get through the oncoming Line
Similarly, by pulling over to the
curb for a right turn. no
one can cut you or and straight
traffic will go by on your left.
Many Can't See IT,
simple. isn't Il? Yet there arc
automobiles who cannot
seem to get it through their heads. If
