SCENI HIGHWAYS ON STATES HLS Plans Now Being Considered, Commissioner Stoeckel Says (Special to the Herald) Bristol, Feb. 20 — leonic high- ways, running north and south on top of Connecticut's hills, to be used exclusively by pleasure cars, were predicted by Robbins B. 8toeckel, commissioner of motor vehicles, at the annual banquet of the Bristol Chamber of Commerce held last evening in the Endee Inn. Such an arrangement would leave the present trunk lines free for commercial ve- hicles and would expedite the move- ment of products into and out of the state. Plans of such proposed scenic highways are now being con- sidered and the fulfilment of such plans is not so far distant, accord- ing to Mr. Btoeckel. A movement is nmow under way, the speaker added, to bring about a coordination and uniformity of city traffic. A delegation of police chiefs of the state are conferting 'with the motor vehicle commissioner today on this subject and it is plan- ned to present a bill to the legis- lature to govern such traffic. Junk Cars Live Forever Mr. Btoeckel also spoke of a bill now under consideration by the leg- slature which would prevent the re- turn to the highway of a car which [had been junked. An investigation by the motor vehicle department, the' jpeaker pointed out, had revealed on instance where the same old car jhad been junked on four different pccasions and had bobbed up again nd again by being turned in on the purchase of § new car. In each in- nce the dealers had made a $100 llowance for the car while the per- on turning it in had purchased it rom the junk heap for $25. As a preventive, Mr. 8toeckel ggested that such cars be junked plece by piece. He al believed it dvisable to sub-divide automobile Pealers’ licenses and to m: ke a deal- r's license and a junk dealer's Ii- ense. The bill, to be suggested, ould insist that such dealers hav- ng a divided license sell junked ars only in parts, The speaker also commented on a pill now in the hands of a legisla- lve committee which prescribed hat every junk dealer grow & edge about automobile graveyards 0 hide such spots from the view of he passing autoists. One member f the committee has suggested that high board fence be erected in uch spots. Urges Reexamination The reexamination of automoblle perators was also brought up hy {r. Stoeckel. He pointed out that any drivers of today had secured jcenses a number of years ago when ere were very few traffic difficul- jes and it was only fair to assume hat undoubtedly a number of those rivers are today incompetent to perate automobiles with the fn- reased traffic problems. He be- eves that such reexaminations ould decrease the number of accl- ents, particularly when sych tests ere made by a group of high ade examiners. A fee would b arged for the reexamination, Figures of the motor vehicle de- rtment indicate that of every hun. drivers, 85 are getting by suc- ssfully, 12 are the type who by a omentary mental lapse are classed easy victims of distraction, and e other three are criminals, Those assed as criminals are easy to han- e but the twelve are the ones hich present the greatest problem. hese, the speaker believed, would weeded out by the proposed re- amination, Accident Figures Presented Accident statistics, compiled and esented at the annual Chamber of pmmerce banquet last evening by perintendent Karl A, Reiche, pra- nted some interesting facts. In 24, six Bristol school children re struck by automobiles; in 1925, ne were injured, an increase of 50 r cent; in 1926, 11, an increase of per cent; in 1927, 16, an increase 66 per cent; and in 1928, 42, rep- enting an increase of 162 1-2 per nt. The average age of children ured was between 6 1-4 and 7 7-8 ars. Over a five year period, fig- es indicated that 60 per cent of ch accidents were the fault of 4 per cent the fault of d 26 per cent the respon- pility was divided. During the year 1928 there were 0 automobile accldents in the city, volving 88 adults and 47 children. these 120 occurred at street in- ections, 115 on clear highwayn. while cars were going upgrade, 6 ile going down grade, and 25 on rves. Further, 206 of the acel- nts occurred on good roads and der good operating conditions, and 8 or 56 per cent happened in broad jylight. In 90 per cent of the ac- fents, the drivers were of the male , while in 10 per cent women op- tors were involved. [Five per cent of the accidents in- ived drivers of 16 years of age, e per cent, o_erators of 18 or 19; per cent, drivers in the twenties per cent, drivers in the thirties per cent, operators between 40 [d 60 years of age, and the bal- ce, beyond the half century mark.
