Team Play at Queen's Park
Makes for Safer ighways
Two Departments of Ontario's
Government co-operate to make
our highway system one which can
be travelled conveniently in com-
fort and safety—the Department of
Highways and the Department of
the Attorney-General.
By highway and traffic engineer-
ing, and a constant review of the
provisions of the Highway Traffic
Act, the Highways Department
under the Hon. George Doucett
iteeps up a continuous effort to give
the motorists of Ontario and
motoring visitors, maximum pro-
tection on the "common path." The
Ontario Provincial Police and the
municipal police under the At-
torney-General administer the en-
forcement of our laws, including the
Highway Traffic Act.
The steady expansion in the
number of motor vehicles using
Ontario's highways provides ever-
changing problems in engineering,
driver and pedestrian education and
enforcement. .
During peak traffic periods, such
as weekends and especially public
holidays, vehicle concentrations tax
road facilities to the limit, and each
driver contributes an equal share
to the congestion., The driver who
does not choose to conform to the
highway code and imperils others
by his driving. habits, whether it be
driving too slowly on busy high-
ways, driving at excessive speeds, or
by his action disregards the safety
of himself or others, is regarded
as a menace. The Traffic Act
provides sane driving regulations
under which such drivers are re-
moved from the highways for the
common good,

Highway Traffic Act for such of-
fences as speeding, careless driving,
racing, operating a car with faulty
or non-existent brakes or other
equipment, can very often result in
license suspension. Suspensions may
be effective for a few weeks, months
or even a year or more, depending
on the nature of the offence.
There are very severe penalties
for those who ignore orders of
suspension of their drivers' licenses
or motor vehicle permits, including
heavy fines, confiscation of their
vehicles or imprisonment.
The Hon. George Doucett, states
that several vehicles, "forfeited to
the Crown," because of convictions
for "unlawful operation of same,"
or, "for procuring registration il-
legally" are at present being held
in storage by the Department and
will be offered for sale to the public
at a later date, The owners because
of their disregard of suspension
orders not only lost their cars but
in addition paid substantial fines or
were imprisoned.
me owner of this vehicle being towed into a Highways Department garage now knows that there are severe
penalties for those who ignore suspension Orders of their drivers' licenses or permits. His privilege to
drive had been revolted because of improper tondUet and he was subsequently apprehended While driving
his car, The permit for the car was under suspension and the ear Was thecefore ""forfeited to the Crown,"
Later, it will be sold.
