There should also be a place found for the ref- erence material. Let’s try to Jo these things and see how much better our school will look. Joyce Tittemore ’58 How Can We Stop The High Accident Rate This editorial Is to all drivers, especially to those in city traffic. I think more accidents would be prevented if the drivers of large city buses, taxis and trucks, would be more careful when starting out from stops at the side of the road, and when starting out from red lights. Some drivers tend to make a nuisance cf themselves by pushing in front of oncoming cars, and thus causing accidents too frequently. Not only the drivers, but people getting into and out of cars open their do ;rs directly to the oncoming traffic. One emphasis, I think I sh uld make, is to the Jaywalker . I think more of the plicemen sh uld enforce this law. The drivers of oncoming ot r6 are unable to see these people darting in and out of traf: icj and cannot stop in time to prevent an accident. It isn't only these people that I have mentioned that can prevent accidents; it’s everyone of us who gets behind the wheel of an automobile, and the pedestrians as well. So why can't we all be more careful and put a stop to the exceedingly high acci- dent rate.
