presence of such a marking on the
roadway, he declares, is evidence that
a sharp segregation of traffic is be-
lieved necessary. and any one who
drives to the left of the line is endan-
gering himself and other motorists.
Every driver of an automobile"
says Mr.. Keneipp. should recognize
the Importance of remaining on his
side of the highway. This is true
of every thoroughfare, urban or rural
It becomes doubly important, how

painted on the pavement to mark the
traffic lanes plainly.
Usually the pavement is so marked
at curve or at the brow of a hill,
where any deviation from the rule that
the driver must keep on his side of
the road is dangerous. Frequently
line Is painted at the approach to
street or highway intersections or on
thoroughfares on which vehicles are
allowed to travel at higher speeds.
Wherever it is to be found, the line
is constant reminder to the driver
to stay to the right, and his observ-
ance of its restrictions should be as
rigid as If q sturdy fence separated
