Drive Safely
Over The Fourth

COLUMBUS-Drive safely and
be alive after the Fourth of July
weekend was the appeal made to-
Cay to Ohio motorists by T. j.
kauer, Director of the Ohio De-
partment Of Highways.
Although fireworks no longer
constitute the chief hazard, Direc-
tor Kauer pointed out that the
Fourth is still the most dangerous
day of the year because of traf-
tic accidents and drownings.
And traffic accidents, he remind
ed, are by far a greater hazard
than drownings.
kauer urged motorists to cele-
brate the Fourth by taking it
easy in traffic and being on the
alert for other drivers who are
not smart enough to be careful.
The State Highway Depart
ment's Division of Traffic and
Safety offered these safety tips
to drivers:
Q) Begin your trip a little
earlier so you won't be tempted
to speed. Remember that Speed
ers Lose.
(2) Adjust speed to the con-
dition of the road, weather, traf-
fic, your car and yourself.
(3) Do your slowing down be-
fore reaching curves and intersec-
tions.
(4) Don't cut in and out of
heavy traffic. Stay in line until
passing is safe.
(5) At night drive so that you
can stop within the clear, illumi-
mated distance ahead.
(6) Don't drink if you drive
and don't drive if you drink.
Drive as if your life depended
on it-because it does," added
kauer. Speed Kills-Take it
Easy!"
