D. DEATHS IN 7 YEARS Plea for Exercise of Caution by Motorists Made by Health Officer Automobile accidents have caused 555 deaths in North Dakota during the last seven years, figures announced Tuesday by Dr. A. A. Whittemore, state health offi- cer. He made a plea for the exercise of caution and foresight on the part of automobile drivers, claiming that most car mishaps could have been prevented. “The non-collision type of auto- mobile accident causes the greatest number of deaths by far in North Da- kota,” he said. “In fact, over three times as many as any other class of auto accident. In that regard we are peculiar, as elsewhere in the United States the great problem is the collision type. “The second cause for concern is the collision of two motor vehicles, followed very closely with collision of) motor vehicle and pedestrian. Most, of the latter are caused by men at work in the roadway and children playing in the streets. “In the classification violations of the driver, ‘exceeding the speed limit’ twice any other. Fifty-two drivers were reported as intoxicated during the last four years in accidents where death of one or more persons en-| sued. Improper lights, including glaring lights, is the most frequent defect in the car, followed by defec-| tive lights and steering gear, al-} though the great majority of the, cars are listed as having no defects. In the greater number, the roadway was reported in good condition, while loose gravel was reported in several. | “The value of the drivers’ license’ law has been proven in the states) where it has been in operation for) even a short time. Some eastern states have reduced accidental deaths 20 per cent by this method. “North Dakota has no such driv-, ers’ license law; nor is there any} mechanism in the state whereby! data on accidents can be gathered and prevention material distributed. %t is therefore the duty of the indi-j vidual to see that our highways do; not become a menace. Careful ob- servance of traffic regulations may, save your life and protect others in your care. “We demand that manufacturers) equip motor vehicles with every con-! make cars safe and enjoyable, and} chanics to further safeguard our matter of course in North Dakota.
