DEATH RIDES AT NIGHT
(By John Jaster, Jr.)

(By John Jaster, Jr.)
Death turks in the dark on Ohio
highways.
A study Of fatal motor vehicle ac-
cidents on state highways outside
municipalities for the first five
months of 1898, as prepared by the
traffic division of the Ohio high
way department, proves that dark
ness greatly increases the possibility
of accidents.
Approximately 81 percent Of the
fatal accidents occurred during the
hours of darkness despite the fact
that only about 80 percent of the
total 24-hour volume of traffic is
carried between the hours of 6 pm.
and a. m.
Darkness gives death several
powerful allies. These include
drowsiness, a false sense Of secur-
ity induced by the lightness OF traf-
fic and an accompanying tendency
to speed. Moreover, there is re
stricted visibility with which the
night driver must contend.
Since night driving claims the
major portion CT the traffic acci'
dent toll on state highways in
Ohio, then one way of cutting it ap-
probably is for each motorist to ex-
ercise extreme caution when drlv
| ing at night.
