Safety Council Notes

Signs of life can reduce traffic
accidents and save many lives" H.
W. T. Purnell, Vice-President for
Sussex County of the Delaware
Safety Council said today That is
the reason, he said, his group is
actively cooperating with the
Signs of Life traffic safety pro-
gram being sponsored in Delaware
Safety Council and the National
Safety Council
"The traffic signs, signals and
pavement markings called signs of
life are designed to regulate, guide
and protect us. IF we follow them
with respect and courtesy, very
often they will save us from serious
accident"
Mr.. Purnell pointed out that an
nually fatal accident reports show
20 or more law violations per 100
drivers involved. Most of the vio-
latiOns listed are covered by visible
reminders of the law-the signs OF
life being stressed in this months
safety program" he said. Just how
important signs of life are, he said
