Germans Said
Bad Drivers
Given Chance

BONN CUPID - German driv-
ers seem to consider their cars
to be chargers, and the highways
tourney places, where they mount
their steeds to joust with one an
other.
AS a result, 14,123 persons died
in car crashes last year.
The courts finally are making
an effort to do something about
death on the highways.
The convictions of two drivers
for attempting to coerce others
on the highways were recently
upheld by the Federal Court.
Proud OF Autobahns
West Germany is justly proud
Of its fine four-lane autobahns.
There are 1920 kilometers (2,-
125 miles, of them.
Bicycles and horses are banned
from the autobahns, but any other
kind Of vehicles can and do use
them, ranging from IL horsepow-
er midgets through trucks a d
trailers hauling II tons Of cargo
to racy sports cars that reach 100
miles per hour.
Slow lanes have been built on
some of the steepest slopes in re-
cent years. But for most of the
ier 9Th of the autobahn, all this
conglomeration Of vehicles shares
two lanes in each direction.
Drivers of slow cars seem jeal-
Gus of the bigger ones and refuse
to make room. Big car drivers
consider it an insult to have to
follow a smaller or slower We
hicle.
The two recent Federal Court
verdicts concerned typical auto
balm maneuvers.
One involved a young man from
Frankfurt, driving along a Sec
tion of the autobahn which has a
100 kph (62 mph) speed limit.

NEW YORK CUPID - The ubi.

Of the zaniest accidents of 1862,
an insurance company reported.
Such cases as these were found
in the record Of the claims paid

own reflection on the side of the
car and went into battle. The car

The Indian War = A group OF
young Indians who had patronized
a tavern for slightly too long at
tackled a car with bottles, cans
and other throwables. Damage
came to only $50, but the legal
expenses may have been greater.
When the company sought to re-
cover the amount it paid its pol

ticular tribe never had signed a
peace treaty with the United
States and, according to their at
torney, were not liable.
