taxi drivers, truck drivers and bus
drivers-who reveal how they drive
nine and ten hours a day without

In reporting on the survey Quen-

"The automobile engineers of the
country are considered in a class

solving the mechanical. structural
and face-lifting difficulties that
arise in the building Of car. Each
year they perform new miracles,
but to date none of them has done
anything about rather shapeless

Reynolds states that many of the
professional drivers interviewed re-
ported that, after an all-day stretch
behind the wheel of truck or bus,
they often hop into their own cars
to take their families for a spin
unfatigued because they know how
to drive properly. Some of the use

a mistake. You.burn up your energy
that way. It's best to start slowly
even II you're on an open road with

your position in your seat and your
eyes will be adjusted to the job
of driving. You can't pop out of

Take the matter of night driving.
The driver spends half his time
swearing at oncoming cars with
glaring headlights. There's no rea-
son why any one should see them.
First Of all you shouldn't look at
them. Look down to your right at
