chased by Paul Mason, chief of di-
vision of drivers licenses, from DR..
Harry r. De Silva, their developer
and one of the nations leading au-
thorities on tests for driving skill.
They now are on tour of the
state.
Persons being tested are those
who have had fatal accidents, null
tiple non-fatal collisions, habitual
violators of traffic laws. and good
drivers. who because of their fine
records over a great number OF
years, have been invited to come in
and be tested in order that their
tests may be compared with that OF
drivers whose records are bad.
From these tests the division
hopes to improve its general tests
and to intelligently examine and
point out possible faults of those
involved in accidents, with the
view of making good drivers out OF
bad.
so far the results obtained from
the machines are encouraging,
Chief Mason declares. "They have
been used in San Francisco, Los
Angeles, and San Jose. We have
found that causes of accidents are
many. They vary from the expect
ed, such as bad eye sight, slow re-
action time, carelessness etc, to the
bizarre, as witness the woman who
sideswiped three cars in one year,
because her husband had wooden
/ leg and was slightly deaf.
This woman passed satisfactorily
all her tests on the machines and
then came to Dr.. De Silva, who was
to analyze her tests. At first he
was "stumped" but the woman fin
ally mentioned that her husband
had a wooden leg and preferred, on
that account, to ride in the rear
seat. AS he was slightly deaf the
woman must turn her head and
shout to him to be heard and thus
would take her eyes from the road

those who are habitual violators
that as soon as they are married
they quite often get out of thu
habitual violator class and handl,
their cars with more decorum."
That the machines appear formi

that in one of the cities where the,
were used, they were in full sigh
on the main floor, near where per
sons apply for drivers and chauf
feurs licenses. In this particula

WHITE LINES ON
ROADS WIGGLE
TO AID SAFETY

SACRAMENTO. Nov. Eff The
white line in the center Of the
highway seems 60 3giggle,' 1t
does not mean the driver should
have his eyes examined, but that
a new plan to reduce accidents is
being tried out.
This plan, originated py Captain
L. B. Kennedy of the California
Highway paTol, now being used
at several points in the state, eaus
es the white line to move sharply
from right to left TO attract at
tention of motorists to dangerous
situations.
On long drives and especially
at night, Captain Kennedy believes
a form Of hypnosis is often in
duced by constant view of the
white stripe which divides the
highway into lanes. BY plan this
hypnosis would be interrupted and
the motorist become more alert.
when the mind ceases To con-
centrate on objects in the field
OF vision" Captain Kennedy ex-
plains "the eye may observe an
indicstion Of danger without re-
alizing It, The mind in this con-
dition neglects stationary objects,
while those that move are seen
and registered.
This is the cause of many
highway accidents. Attention is
directed only at the road ahead.
If something on the road should
move Unexpectedly. the mind will
take notice. The lane stripes being
the principal object in the field
Of vision, should move to warn of
danger. If this stripe is slightly
offset, the forward motion of the
car will create the illusion that
the stripe is moving"
