eadly Rail Crossings Increase Faster Tha - SARETY CONFERENCE | ~ FINDS 240,000 DEATH wereees; TRAPS IN COUNTRY Majority Protected by Mere Signs Only, and Some "Not at All Marked CARE BY AUTOISTS URGED Enforcement of Law Against Speed Greater Than 25 Miles Favored Reduction in the speed of automo- biles when approaching railway grade crossings to 15 miles an hour if the view of the tracks is not clear and unobstructed for at least 400 feet in both directions, is defined by the third national conference on street and highway safety as an essential pre- caution in preventing accidents at these places. If the obstruction to view is ex- treme, or there is other unusual danger, the conference favors a com- plete stop before entering on the tracks. If the operator of the vehicle can see the tracks for 400 feet or more in both directions, a speed of 25 miles an hour at the crossing is indicated by the conference. The reckless driving penalty, in the. view of the conference, should be enforced against drivers ‘who pass over crossings at speeds in excess of 25 miles an hour. . Nearly 6000 Accidents Crossings should not be entered upon at any time, according to the conference, until the vehicle operator has exercised due precaution, and has definite assurance that a train is not approaching from either direction.

In 1928 there were 1,204 crossirigs eliminated, anti 2,068 new crossings were opened to traffic. 5 While the accidents at crossings have remained. at slightly less than 6,000 a year since 1925, and there has not been’ an appreciable increase in the number of deaths per year at such places, still the number of deaths per year at such places, still the number of deaths in 1929 was 2,485, and 6,804 others were arrange! of more adequate protection at cross- ings there should be a fair division of the costs, including the elimination of obstructions to view and other haz- ards, bctween th state or county gov- railroads.
