MeLaughlin, stat- ed ho favoured sa!etjy campalgus but that when sucli drives were over, conditions usually were the same as theywere before witb just as many accidents. This was se because the nevelty wore off. H0e aid however that moet motor accidents were avoidable. Many accidents are preveuted by the subconscious operatbon of the vehicle. Most motorists, hoe ald, did avoid accidents over a long perlod. The. chances o'! an acci- dent iu a car were infinitely les than anywhere else. The chances of being killed un a car were mach lees than if a person were' walking on the street. Motor vehicues were being made s5aler from year te year. The moter Industry wae beudin, every offert te that end. Time and energy was being expended to make motor cars more con- trolable and structurally strong- or. It muet ho rernerbered hew- ever, Mr. Davidson said, that sale vehicles are dangerone ia the bande o! seme Individuals. Speaking with regards te the vehicles produced, Mr. Davideon declared that despite the engin- eering rèfinements and care talc- en ln the production o! a meter vehicle the manufacturer had net ceutrol ever It al ter it was placed lui the hande o! the driv- or. Ho emphasized the fact' that the industry -stands ready and williag te co-operate with any reputable 'group on means of; ameliorating the present acci- dent toit, [t wae urged thati whatever stops were taken should have good sease and Intelligence. Nething, ho said, would catch up with a manufacturer more quick- ly than an inherentAy unsafo car. Cause of Accidents Investigations carrbed out In recent years lad showed acci- dente were traceable te a num- ber of factors. Few if any ac- cidents were traceable te eue cause alone. Factors contribut- ing te accidents were given as the car, the driver, the road and the other fellew. Mr'. Davîdson did netý believe that any moe than five per cent. o! all acci- dents could ho traced te weak- nese bu the construction o! the vehicle. It wae stated that there was mucli discussion oer the great sPeed o! meter vehicles on the Ne.rth American continent as a factor lun accidents. HRe cited fi- 3gures te show that this vas net the casd. The death rate lu Canada per thousand' vehîcles vas 12.3; while lu Scetland where low powered cars are usod the rate vas 47.6 per thousand- 'vehiclcs. Mr. Davideen feit that the solution did net lie ln the direction o! lower pewer. Hlgh speedu vere net the only causes of accidents.

It was Mr. Davidson's ' -opinion Ïhat with reasonable adjugtmentis and the use by the driver e! the adJustments provIded, many ac- cidents could be avoided. More accidents were caused by poor ligli ts than by briglit lights, he declared. Regarding the driver It was stated that there would always be drivers who were too yeung, drivers who were color bliud and rau through traffic liglits, drivers who disregarded the. Iaw, and drivers who drove whiie intoxi- cated. A L-reat deal couId be ac- complished however through the mediurn ef education of the driv- er. Mr. Davidson said that there was sufficient evidence to 'war- rant the assertion that rigId test- Ing of drivers would reduce ac- cidents.
