Hundreds Joining
Shell Safety Club
In Big Drive

Hundreds of motorists are join
ing the new Share e-The- Road Club,
organized TO increase safety and
reduce congestion by cutting down
the number of traffic "boners.'
1T is heartening TO see how 10
cal motorists have really gotten
behind this worthwhile drive" was
the comment today Of E. r. Bur-
nett. FL Centro, local manager for
Shell
Traffic authorities say the
"screwdriver" Is really the cause OF
a large portion of traffic conges-
ton. The screwdriver is the motor
list who violates ali traffic rules
and has no consideration for other
motorists. When he makes wrong
turns, goes against traffic lights or
parks double, he creates a condi-
tion which may cause accidents and
which certainly slows up traffic.
Traffic experts say that if such
traffic "boners" can be eliminat-
ed, the amount of expensive stop
and-go driving will be reduced by
at least 25 per cent-and that will
mean money saved to every motor
ist who realizes how costly stop
and-go driving can be.
All motorists are invited 10 join
the Share-The-R Road Club and help
aid this crusade which means so
much TO them. There are no dues
or expense Of any kind. In fact,
Shell dealers who take applica-
tions for membership supply each
motorist free with a handsome met
al emblem showing marine code
signal flags in color which mean
"am giving way" This emblem
above a rear license plate means
the driver of that car is willing TO
share the road" obey traffic reg
ulations and help cut down stop
and-go driving.
