Night Driving Hazards
11 m*V !lhock mm automobile drivers to learn that their
» ir‘nth‘^V,.*,°n ,s 1?“1eff,c‘ent "‘itht than by dav. but it is
IJEIJ 'earned too quickly In fact, this failing
affects at least -0.000.000 of the nation's tfU.000.000 drivers So
u seems to behoove all drivers to be especially careful after
dark. You may have the night vision of an owl, but if one out
of every three motorists you pass is below par the added
hazard becomes obvious. What should you do about it?
• hetfin with, every driver should slow down when dusk
arrives, whether vision is good. fair, poor or downright bad at
night. Bad driving vision and excessive speeds at night to-1
gether are largely to blame for the serious increases that havf
occurred tn nighttime traffic fatalities since 194ti Thcv for-
merly accounted for 4« percent of the lives lost on the'high-
ways By 1950. however, they had jumped to 57 percent,
causing 20.000 of the nation's 25.000 traffic tragedies that
year
Slower speed gives a driver sufficient control of his car to
meet the increased hazards of darkness. These dangers include
not only speeders, drinking drivers and similar brands of
reckless motorists, but the many other drivers who don't
have good enough vision to judge distances as well at night as
in the daytime Every driver who has seen a pedestrian sud-
deitf* loom up in the headlights, or has suffered momentary
blindness Irom headlight glare, should be able to appreciate
these hazards, which can be minimized by slower nighttime
speeds. Three out of four pedestrians killed and injured while
crossing at intersections are run down at night.
Eleven states already have taken the added night hazards (
into account bv requiring lower maximum speeds in the hours
of darkness. These are sensible laws. If slower night speeds
were the rule, instead of the exception, the tragically high
toll of after-dark-accidents undoubtedly would be consider-
ably lower
