HAzEN PROPOSES
T0CHANGE PERMIT
SUSPENS|ONPLAN
Let Board Ease First.
0ffense Penalties, Increase
Other Punishments.
22-MlLE, 80 MILE ZONE
DIFFERENCE TOO GREAT
Asks Consideration for Minor
1nfractions and for Those
Who Drive for Living.

A new plan for suspension of op-
orators permits for speeding, under
which first offenses in minor cases
could be ignored by the Board of Rev.
ocation and Review, which would be
given power to invoke more drastic
penalties in serious cases than at pres
ent. was proposed today by Commits
sioner Melvin C. Hazen.
He rejected recommendations by the
Advisory Board of the District Motor
Club of the A. A. A. that permits not
be suspended for speed of less than
35 miles an hour in a 22-mile zone or
for speed of less than As miles an
hour in a 30-mile zone.
Rather than agree to weakening the
present plan, Hazen suggested that
permits be suspended in cases where
the driver is convicted of driving faster
than q miles an hour in a 22-mile
zone and of driving IS miles or more
in the 30-mile zones.
Discretion Right Suggested.
At the same time, to prevent undue
hardship in minor cases, that is in
cases where there is no evidence of
recklessness or of driving at highly
dangerous speeds, considering traffic
conditions, he suggested the board be
given the privilege of using its discre-
tion to waive suspensions in cases of
first offense within a year.
He said in memorandum for
warded to Assistant Corporation Coun-
sci Edward W. Thomas, head OF a
committee which is studying the sus-
pension plan:
1T seems to me there is too much
difference between the 22-mile and
the 30-mile zones before an operators
permit is suspended. I suggest that
the 22-mile be 81 and the 30-mile be
IS before a permit is automatically
suspended after conviction in court.
At these two speeds. I suggest the
Revocation Board use their discretion.
and that it not be mandatory. taking
especially into consideration whether
it is a first offense and also whether
it is reckless or a serious accident has
taken place
Consideration Advocated.
"I also think consideration should
be given to the case where the offense
is minor and the driver is depending
upon his permit for a living. Now.
then, when the speed reaches miles
more than the limit indicated in either
zone, the permit should be suspended
and the driver dealt with severely
with no less than 80 days suspension.
increasing according to the degree
of violation"
In move to reduce the congestion
of cases OF appeals from suspensions
in the corporation counsels Office, the
Commissioner suggested it was not
necessary to have a legal review in
each case, unless the Commissioners
call for one, since an assistant corr
poration counsel Is a member of the
Board of Revocation and Review.
