Sees Little Need
For Parking Light

To the Editor NJ The star.
One opinion is as good as another
and you have expressed yours concern
ing the proposed change in the parking
light regulation. Mine Is just the oppo-
site and I had, before reading your
editorial. sent Mai Hesse cnmmenda-
ton. believe that thousands Of others
feel the same way and have heard
scores so express themselves within the
few hours since the proposed change
was printed.
parking light does no good for the
reason that the parked car can Just as
readily be seen, no matter how dark the
street. by the running lights of the
motorist approaching from the rear.
If the running lights are on there is
no excuse for humping parked car
any more than during the day. Parked
cars are the usual thing, the expected
thing and the motorist Is on his guard
for them. On the other hand the
street excavation or obstruction is not
the usual thing and should be lighted.
BY all means put the responsibility
on the moving car where it belongs.
If driver can't see. he should not
drive until his eyes or his headlights
arc put in condition for service. The
parked car is not a hazard, let the
moving car take care.
