SAFETY WORK
SPONSORED BY
KOOSIER CLUBS.
Motor Organizations Tackle
Many Aspects of
Problem.

On the heels of the recent an
nouncement from the National
Headquarters of the American Auto
mobile Association in Washington,
that survey of the activities of its
928 affiliated motor clubs disclosed a
tendency everywhere to intensity
their efforts in safety work, the
Hoosier Motor Club declared itself
not only in complete sympathy with
this policy, but ready to contribute
its resources to making it effective
in the local territory.
1.-THE determination of A. A. A.
motor clubs everywhere to intensity
their work in the safety field is an
other proof that these organizations
are fast assuming the role of quasi
public utilities" Mr.. Stops. secre-
tary-manager Of the Hoosjer Motor
Club, declared.
Acts AS Clearing House
'Tn their manifold activities, for
which A. A. A. Headquarters acts
as clearing house, the motor clubs
are today tackling many aspects of
safety. some of which go to the very
root of the problem. Only a few
of these need be instanced to indi-
cate the Importance of the intensi-
fled effort now decided on.
First, the work of the clubs In
bringing safety into the schoolroom
has proven one of the most i'm
portant departures in the safety
movement in America.
Campaign is Waged
Second, the campaign now, being
waged by motor clubs against hit
and-run drivers has proven one of
the most effective ways of driving
this species of criminal off the
highways.
Third, another noteworthy sphere
of the safety activities is the brake
and headlight testing campaigns
that many clubs have launched.
Fourth, acting in conjunction
with National Headquarters, many
of the clubs have been instrumental
In making traffic surveys and recon-
mendations that have resulted in
reducing the hazards of travel.

BAD DRIVING is
RESULT OFTEN OF
FALSE COURAGE
Mctorist May Think He Is
Spreading Thrills by
Bravery.

There are many ways in which
a motorist may prove himself to be
bad driver just when he is think
ing how other drivers must be adj
miring his facility in handling car,
says Duane Duncan, president of the
Hoosier Motor Club.
The ten most common forms of
bad driving which too many motor
lists regard as good car operation,
according to Mr.. DUNCAN are:
Driving slowly in the middle of
the road.
Taking the right-of -way of the
other fellow by taking advantage of
his desire to avoid injury to himself
Of others or his car.
Driving a car that has squeaky,
unequal and generally inefficient
brakes.
Cutting corners and taking
curves at high speed.
Passing another vehicle, going in
the same direction, at the brow of
a hill.
Descending a steep hill in high
gear when discretion dictates going
down in second or low gear.
Trying to beat a train to the
grade crossing-even if the trick is
turned successfully.
Parking SO as to use up the space
that might be taken by two cars.
Trying TO pass a long line of
traffic that is travelling at the legal
speed limit.
Making repairs without pulling
the car off the highway or, at least,
having two wheels off the side of
the road"
