Alertness is the chief requirement
for the driver on vacation tour, ac-
cording to a national service dl-
rector of a large automobile COM
pany, He doesn't know the road and
its hazards. he is unfamiliar with 10
cal traffic customs and at any moment
he may be called upon to cope with
a situation that he is not accustomed
to meeting in his ordinary driving.
Therefore. If he does not concentrate
on his Job. he is much more likely to
have a mishap than when he is travel
ing the old familiar roads around his
home.
Most driving over accustomed routes
Is done subconsciously; the driver
slows down for curves and busy inter-
sections. halts at stop streets and ob-
serves the traffic lights, without CIV
ing thought to them. This is the
safest condition Of driving, because it
permits the man at the wheel to be
on the alert for ary unusual develop
ment. Since he does SO many of the
necessary things frUm force OF habit.
he is better able to act when the un-
expected happens.
On the Summer tour. over strange
highways, the driver must consciously
direct his mind to warming signs,
crossings, curves, steep grades, etc.
And it is on this kind of drive, when
he needs all his attention on the road,
that he is most subjected to distrac.-
ton. He las to observe the scenery,

verse with his wife. see that the bag
gage remains in place and look after
a dozen things that in ordinary driv-
ing cause him no concern.
The first rule of safe touring for
the driver, therefore, is to keep con-
stantly on the alert. The rule for the
