This is due to inis- understanding and perhaps there vill be a broader spirit shown by the objectors when they realize that fact. The streets do not belong to auto- mobile drivers. They are for pedes- | trians, as well as vehicles.

The installation of the light tem- alleviates the situation to ome extent and a man may be rea- sonably sure of reaching the oppo- site curbstone, when he starts to cross, without being subjected to violence in the form of bone crush- ing. 1f automobile drivers would exer- | cise due caution and would be an- imated by a spirit of consideration for pedestrians there would be few- er accidents reported. It is true that the majority of drivers want to be | considerate of those crossing the streets on foot but there are many who speed ahead at the showing of | the amber light, apparently arguing with themselves that they are at liberty to proceed when the red light is not showing. This {8 an erroneous idea and defeats the pur- pose for which traffic lights were | installed. The red light protects pe- destrians and the amber light as- es them of further protection. Traffic may move when the green light is showing and at no other | times.
