New Uniform Speed Laws Proposed
 By National Highway Safety Group

merely for having exceeded the in- dicaUed limits. Thus on an open highway under favorable condi- tions Whele there is no violation of the basic rule, driver may oper- ate at a0 CT even 60 miles per hour. In other words speed per SC is not made an offcnSe.
 It is, however. used as a measure of the degree of any offense which may De called bad driving. This is the provision which makes the new speed regulation the most severe which has ever been enacted against reckless drivers. Any operator who while moving at a rate in excess Of the indicated speed violates the bas- ic rule by driving in an unreason- able or improper manner, or so 0S 10 collide with any person or ve- hicle, or who violates any rule of the road, as for example driving on the wrong side of the road. cutting in, violating right Of way or similar acts is subject to the same penalty as that provided for reckless driv- iEg.
 This begins with a minium of S25 fine or five days imprisonment or both, and has q maximum for a second offcnse of $1,00o fine and six months mprisonmt mt or both. The application of the rule will di- vert attention from merely teChni- cal rates of speed 10 actions which combined with speed results in hazards
 To End Hide-and- Seek
 Heretofore highway driving has too frequently been q game of hide and seek between drivers and off. cers. The officer watched his speed ometer and the operator his rear vision mirror. Under the new rule both will be watching manner of driving. The operator will know that he must drive slowly where conditions are unfav orable but that he may legally drive rapidly under favorable conditions and in strict compliance with the laws of the road
 The new speed regulation Of the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety may appear to be an innovation. but in fact it IS merely formal specialization of the practice followed by intelligent operators for many years, and like wise by progressive and intelligent police departments.
 The great advance is to be found in the fact that in the future those who depart from the rules will be subjected to very heavy penalties. Eni orcennent energies can now be concentrated on the really reckless driver with the assurance that the punishment will fit their misdeods.
