Governors for
 Motor Vehicles Reckless Operation of Cars May Result in
 New Law

| Inefe IS possibility that ncceS- sity for control of motor vehicle speeds may bring the states to consideration of mechanical con- trirances as installations on all ve- hicles to limit maximum speeds says Commissioner of Motor Ve- | hicles Robbins B, Stoeckel If this comes about, he says. 1t will be be- cause operators do not govern their own speeds to conform with con- ditions with the result that coEse : Huences of high speed accidents become increasingly more disas- trOua.
 "It has often been proposed" he says, that the state require the installation of governors, especial ly on commercial motor vehicles The theory of this is that very large vehicle going at a very high rate of speed is more dangerous than n small one because of the greater tonnage and the conse- quently greater impact force. All such projects, when considered by legislative committees or by the department. have been more or less discounted because of imper- fections. However, if these are overcome. there is no reason why a state cannot require the mainte- nance of governor in car just as it does the maintenance of brakes.
 "The question Of the governor Is not SO much to the fore at pres ent as another mechanical propo- sition, which has come up again and again. and always in more practical and more definite form. This is the recording speedometer. There Is now in process of perfection by It's inventors speed . ometer which will carry the record of a car as to It's speeds for vary | ing periods or distances. Should such a device ever he required on ears with an accompanying sealing apparatus, which would keep own ers from opening 1t, there might be a perfect record for investjga | ton of speed and for a suppress sion of high speeds where such are | indulged in to unreasonable ex- tents.
 Perhaps the use of such ma chine would be limited. from an enforcement standpoint. One lim itation would be that the type of traffic In which high speed was used could not be decided from ,, the record of an automatic ma | chine.
 "Whatever the present imper- fections of mechanical control de- vices, the idea should be consid cred that if present methods of enforcement are not increased suf- ficlently to be effective. the state Is apt to turn to other methods to control speeds and traffic perform ance. This Is not n prediction that this will come about. It Is rather a caution to all those who drive on the highways that the use of extreme speeds, especially in i'm proper places. must soon be more strenuously attacked by enforce ment authorities, and that the leg islative mind Is apt to be directed towards Its control through me. chanical devices"

 interests of highway safety was read by station announcer. to-day from WTIC, the Travellers.
