' ' ' *4 ' MOTOR ACCIDENTS GIVE REASON FOR CONCERN '■ \ Sl._, __ ___(__________r-i __ solos/Mr. B. H. Morton (Lions Head) Recently, the w Chief Constable of Toronto, in makirig his annual report, revealed fScts concerning mo^or ac- cidents which provide- food for ser­ ious thought not only to Toronto- but. to the Province of Ontario generally. ‘It* was stated -that 1,8 .but of '22 charged with manslaughter 'and. 35 out of 41 charged with criminal neg­ ligence last year were concerned in mbtor accidents. ' ' The Honorable T. B. McQuesten,. Minister of Highways* sees very clearly the need v for more- drastic action in this 'respect. He^fes, re­ peatedly, and in no 'uncertiun terms,, stated the Seriousness of the prhbleni created by . unjustifiable leniency to wards motorists and drivers of com­ mercial ' vehicles whose neglfigence has caused fatalities; • ' ■ Personal, individual care ,and re­ sponsibility among motorists is,, of ' course, the most effective means to scaling down the toll of , accidents. As the Motor Vehicle Branch of the Department of Highways is constan­ tly pointing out, “Ontario must? start thinking jsgfetyi’. 4 The appalling ■ toll .of accidents would soon be reduced if operators —* “Of motor vehicles . would discipline ’ themselves to drive at sensible speed; if they would makte sure that their ‘ tires, brakes and lights wew^^ec- tive; if „they shunned liqub)? When called upon to drive; and if they ’ stopped taking chances neat stre’et u^n8’ ^°?si^ecti°ns, on curves and mils, in places where they are liable' to be children, in fact, everywhere. Reckless drivers, ^however, . are finding the courts far less sympa­ thetic than of yore. Jail sentences are becoming the rule rathpE than the exception; and thete is.’a marked tendency towards the utmost severity in--cases where a death Has occurred; This, of course, is a sigrt that the public generally is Waking u.p to the .situation. • . It is too bad that a supposedly en-- lightened province like our own should need the penitentiary held over its head to- prevent criminal negligence when driving; but, tmtiT the province, I generally is fully aroused to its re- , an spbnsjhiJifci<jfl while at. the wheel of ' seems to be no s ■ k A ./ i A
