 The increase in accidents of 68 percent on the straightaway in rural areas and an increase in 66 percent in fatalities, generally, can be at tributed to hazards created by the driver
 There was an increase of III per- cent in arrests for speeding during the period, indicating growing trend to higher speeds now that the wartime speed limit has been remov- ed. This contention further is sub- stantiated by the 73 percent increase in accidents on curves.
 At other locations such as rural intersections, urban straightaways, hills and bridges, the percent in- crease i1l accidents was less than the percent increase in traffic. At rail- road crossings and underpasses there was a decrease. At all of the latter locations, except at railroad cross ings, there was a decrease in fatal itieS.
