backs, the schoolbus is equip-
ped with a rigid steel bar that
runs across the back of each
seatback at just the right height
to mutilate the face and teeth
of a child thrown forward by a
sudden stop or collision", Rid-
dell said.
"The law also requires that
private automobiles be equip-
ped with seatbelte. While seat-
belts are probably not ap-
propriate for schoolbuses,
padded armrests could be
provided to ensure that the
child is restrained within the
passenger area. This feature
should be combined with
automobile dash-type padding
in the passenger area and on
seatbacks. The passenger will
thereby be held in the
passenger seating area and the
passenger seating area will be
fully padded," Riddell noted.
Mr. Riddell concluded by
calling on the Legislature to
face its responsibility and act to
improve the safety of those
students who travel by
schoolbus.
"There is a crying need for
action to improve the safety of
our schoolbuses", he con-
cluded.
"We as Legislators have an
--Unshakeable reepOneibili toe
take steps to satisfy that need,
There can be no more impor-
tant task to come before this
Legislature than to protect the
safety of our children. I feel
confident that this House will
face that responsibility and
legislate this Bill into law," he
said.
Driving under the influence
of alcohol and another drug -
usually a prescription drug - is
a trend that seems to be on the
increase. The Ontario Safety
League warns that one unit of a
drug plus one unit of alcohol
does not equal two, It may
equal four in its effect. It may
render the imbiber four times
as 'influenCed'. The effects of
some drugs can last for several
days and are considerably
worse when taken with alcohol.

Wherever you drive your car,
deadly carbon monoxide goes
with you. Guard against it.
Have your exhaust system
checked regularly, says the On-
tario Safety League. This is
particularly necessary in the
Fall, when car windows are
kept closed against the cool
weather. Never sit in a parked
car with the windows corn,
pletely closed while the engine
is running.

Jack Riddell, Liberal MPP
for Huron, spoke last week ih
the Legislature on behalf of his
own Bill designed to improve
the safety of those students who
travel by schoolbus.
Mr. Riddell emphasized the
responsibility of the Ontario
Government to ensure the
students' safety.
"Largely due to the cen-
tralization of our school system
and of county school boards,
well over half a million of On-
tario's school children do
travel by schoolbus. To my
mind, students who travel by
schoolbus deserve special atten-
tion from the Government.
These young people are really
involuntary passengers: they
need to go to school and the
schoolbus is the only means by
which they can get there, Since
they are involuntary
passengers, the Government
has a special responsibility to
ensure that all possible steps
are taken to ensure their safety.
The safety of our children can-
not be over emphasized. Surely
there could be no more precious
cargo than Ontario's students,"
the Huron member said.
Mr. Riddell's Bill would
bring about action in two
ttreite: -the' 'eehdolbus driver;
and the schoolbus itself. An
aspiring schoolbus driver
would have to not only pass the
present test for schoolbus
drivers but also have clean
driving and police records and
take compulsory courses in
defensive driving, highway
safety and emergency first aid.
A schoolbus driver's licence
would need to be renewed
every year and the driver
would be retested before
renewal was granted.
Speaking on the design and
construction of schoolbuses,
Mr, Riddell called for all
schoolbuses used in Ontario to
conform to the standards
established by the Canadian
Standards Association. Fur-
thermore, Mr. Riddell called
for increased padding and
other safety features for the in-
terior of schoolbuses,
"Just consider the inside of a
schoolbus. Where the law
requires that private
automobiles must be equipped
with protective padded seat-
