When Trevor goes out travelling, he's particular where he rides, He likes to sit inside the car, and not cling to the sides, Continued next column He tries to set an example for all little girls and boys, And reminds them that the roadways were never built for toys, Never hook to a vehicle with a toboggan or a sleigh, It could only end in tragedy, and spoil this very day. For the week of December 27, 1970 to January 2,:1971. On December 30, 1970, Constable J.C. Bosley investigated a two car collision at Winnipeg and Brunswick Street involving George Birch of 205 Ontario Street, Schreiber and Donald Keating, 19 Manitoba Street, Schreiber. No one was injured but damage of $975.00 was incurred by the vehciles in- volved. All in all the New Year was ushered in very quie- tly from an enforcement point of view. With the large snow fall and festive spirits, the public is to be commended for the manner in which they handled, themselves during the past week. However, trouble is brewing and will only be a matter of time before something blows. It has been noticed by members of this detachment the irrespon- sible manner in which some person (s) are operating snow machines in this area. As it has been pointed out time and time again, these are not toys and therefore demand respect the same as any other moto- rized vehicle. Is it going to mean a death or serious injury in this community or are you going fo act in the same manner as in the past and prove the Canada Safety Council right in its prediction of 100 deaths to snowmobile users.
