To the Editor of The St: 3 I wish to raise a question as to the purpose and the value of so-called drivers' permits for the District of Cplumbia.- After passing a farcical examination an applicant is ded a permi{ provided he hands over $2. Possession of a permit seems to f{{ be by no means a guarantee of abil- ity to drive, of a guarantee of care- ful driving. Outside of proving a source of revenue what good pur- pose does this system serve? Reckless and brainless drivers are || at large on Washington streets at all times, endangering the lives and property. of responsible auto drivers. Yet the escapades of these reckless drivers seem to go unnoticed by the police department. though the traffic 1 policeman. is. quick to reprimand the ordinary, every-day citizen, who is trying 50 hard to drive right that he sometimes goes Wrong. Drivers of automobiles from other states come here, and assume that the reciprocity relations of the home states with the District provide full right to drive here with the same papers they used at home, as they have a right to assume. They are not told differently until an accident occurs, and. are then informed that they are in the wrong, because they have not paid $2 for a “permit.” et 8. THOMPSON Sy S ——.
