SEASONAL SAFETY POSTERS URGE
CAUTION BY CHILDREN


Stop and look before crossing streets
is the safety message of 1850 posters
to be distributed early in November,
by the Automobile Club of Washington
to schools in its territory. This will be
keeping with the Christmas idea urg-
ing that youngsters refrain from
dangerous practices which might ruin
their holidays.
The November poster, in black and
green, depicts two children starting
across the street from in front OF
parked automobiles. They are being
careful to see that there is no on
coming traffic. The December poster,
In red and black, pictures a happy
family, free from injuries, enjoying
Christmas Day.
Suggested talks, upon which teach
ers can base their monthly safety in
structions, accompany each poster.
These lessons are two of the series
distributed each school year by the
Automobile Club of Washington which,
believes that safety program, to be
successful, must include the citizens
of tomorrow as well as the citizens OF
today.

MOTORISTS AND PEDESTRIANS
MUST HELP STOP WINTER
M1SHAPS

Street users, both motorists and
pedestrians, have It within their pro-
vince to reduce winter traffic mishaps
TO q minimum II they will but recog-
ni2e certain fundamental difficulties
in connection with driving and walk
Ing during this season which Is the
most prolific in serious accidents.
This point is made in statement
issued by the Automobile Club of
washington. Iii which are enumerated
the considerations everyone should
ponder in the interest of safety
The most significant feature of VIM
ter driving that should appeal to every
one Is that footing for both motor
cars and pedestrians is most treacher-
Gus and insecure during the current
season, the statement says. Certain
steps can be taken to offset this con-
dition but their effectiveness is limit
ed and, unless the driver and walker
both realize this, 1t is possible to turn
their basic safety into definite
hazard, it is pointed out.
Both pedestrians and motorists
have concessions to make, to the fact
snowy, icy streets are treacherous, says
the statement. THE motorists re-
sponsibility demands, first, the adj
dition Of such safety equipment as
chains, and secondly, the realization
that there is such thing as outdriv-
! ing any safety feature. Many motor
lists do sacrifice the advantages given
by four-wheel brakes, balloon tires,
chians and other such safety features.
This is due to the tact that motor
lists often are lulled into a false sense
Of security by the very presence Of
these undeniably safe appurtenances
to modern motoring. It4s not to be
questioned that cars are safer, but the
safety inherent In any car still must
be brought out by highly intelligent
driving. The human factor is large
and always will be large. Driving
which brings no mishap is that which
recognizes that a street surface which
has low FRACTIONAL value necessitates
a longer stopping distance, not only for
one driver or one pedestrian but for
every street user
The duty of the pedestrian TO recog-
nize virtually these same facts is para
mount, the Automobile Club of Wash
ington believes. The statement con-
tinues:
THE pedestrian should understand
the viewpoint of the motorist in winter.
How many times have serious mishaps
resulted from the selfish thoughtless-
ness of pedestrians! A typical accident
of this character is that from jay
walking. This practice is greatest in
towinter and the pedestrian who resorts
to 1t may force several drivers to apply
their brakes with dangerous haste.
The result is skid that may involve
several cars in crash, the conse-
quence of which are often fatal
1.-THE temptation for everyone is to
hurry. Neither driving nor walking is
so much of a pleasure in winter and
ones destination is never so desirable
as when the weather is cold and the
footing insecure and uncomfortable
But haste is the cause of too many
accidents to be without its vital
significance.
Just slight willingness to con-
slider the harder conditions of winter
and an effort to get the other per-
sons viewpoint is all that is necessary
to take much of the tragedy out of
cold weather driving.
