There were 1,204 people killed on Ontario roads last year, a 5,8 per cent increase over the 1,138 .deaths reported in 1982. However, that 1982 totelswas a 21.2 per cent reduction over '81 the lowest since 1958. . Slight improvements were made in the overall number of injuries (-1.2 per cent), property damage accidents (=4.6 per cent) and total accidents (-3.2 per cent). "However, the number of fatalities during the six-month period, October '83 to March '84, decreased dramatically, shouving a 12.9 per cent drop over the same period a year earlier. A total of 447 people were killed in traffic accidents, down from 513," Snow commented. Motorcycle accidents continue to be a source of concern for the minister, however, despite a slight decline in the number of deaths during 1983. Recent studies show the factors involved are the same as in previous years: unlicensed end inexperienced drivers, alcohol impairment and failure to wear helmets. "Obviously, something needs to be done to ensure that motorcyclists are more aware of the dangers they face on our highways," `Snow said. "A closer observance of the law seems to be necessary if we h curtail this senseless loss of life." t The last quarter of 1983 . owea tur- naround in the overall statisti'n;s, with a 9.0 per cent drop in the number of road deaths. Figures for October to December reported a total of 284 fatalities, compared to 312 dur- ing the same period of 1982. This is the lowest final -quarter death toll since 1951. The January to March 1984 tofals also represented an 18.9 per vent reduction, the gbest first-quarter record since 1950. Highway accidents accounted for the loss of 163 lives in the first three months of this year, down from'20t in 1983. ' "I'mleased by the'tvend that has been established in the most recent quarterly statistics,'' Snow said.. "I think -the improvement has something to do- with the fact dirinking-driving cam- paigns are. finall' "beginning to get their point across, The Ontario government's crackdown.on impaired motorists - combin- ed with the use of seat belts -- is helping to make the province's roads safer. "In Ontario, we have had a long term trend of annually decreasing the number of motor vehicle fatalities. With the precen- dent we have set in the early part of 1984, we could make this one of our best years ever," he added. Snow announces introduction of photos TORONTO - Transportation and Com- munications Minister James Snow has an- nounced that a photo -driver licence system will come into effect starting January 1, 1986. "It is one way to prevent suspended drivers from borrowing someone else's driver's licence or using a stolen licence to get. back on the road and endangering the lives of other motorists," explained Snow. Snow also noted that photo -driver's licences would protect innocent drivers who lose their licences or have -the misfortune to have their licences stolen. In addition, photo -driver licences will pre- vent experienced drivers from substituting for inexperienced drivers during driver ex- ams, he pointed out. "It's no surprise to me that police forces throughout the province are strongly behind photos on, driver's licences to ensure positive identification of driver," Snow con- tinued.: ' He explained that the new licence will take the form of a two-part document. One part will show the driver's photo and the se- cond part will contain information similar to that of existing licences. Once the system is put into place, tcie photo and part two will be renewed as part of the three-year renewal cycle, or if a per- son's name is changed. It will take three to four years to completely phase in the new system. "Introduction of photo -driver licences will make our roads safer as well as providing police with proper driver identification," Snow concluded. New national IODE president elected Barbara MacEachern of Brechin, Ontario was recently elected the 29th president of the National Chapter of Canada, IODE, and brings to this position a background of 39 years of IODE involvement. Born in London, Ontario, she received her early education there and then attended Havergal College in Toronto. She later returned to London to attend the University of Western Ontario. The MacEacherns have a son Dick and daughter Leslie who are both married and live in Ottawa. They also have three. grandda ughters. Currently a member of the Lady Margaret Alexander Chapter of Orillia, Barbara has belonged to five primary chapters since initially joining the Peace Hill Chapter in Wetaskiwin, Alberta in 1945. As the wife of an officer in the Canadian Armed Forces, Major N.D. MacEachern (retired), she notes that -membership in IODE remained one of the constants during their years of service life, a membership only interrupted by a three-year appointment in England. She found that IODE brought a sense of belonging, presenting an opportunity to make friends and have a place in the community, overcoming "that terribly new feeling" with every transfer. Barbara MacEachern's deep commitment to IODE is confirmed in that Pilot project is started The Thames Valley Children's Centre recently announced the start of a pilot pro- ject to bring therapy services to physically handicapped children in Bruce County, the most northerly area served by the Centre. The outreach program will be at Kincardine General Hospital, where a therapist will be located one day a week throughout the sum- mer. A group of eight children who usually receive therapy at the Thames Valley Children's Centre in London will now be seen in their own community for continuing treatment on a regular basis. Physiotherapy will be provided initially, and other services such as speech and -.com=- munication development, and occupational therapy will be available as need is iden- tified. Doctors in Bruce County have been notified of the outreach program in order to encourage continuing referrals to the ser- vice. This program is offered by the Thames Valley Children's Centre in recognition of the needs of patients living beyond easy driving distance from London. The Centre is the major rehabilitation facility for physically handicapped youth from birth to 18 years throughout southwestern Ontario. Counties served by the Centre include Bruce, Elgin, Essex, Grey, Kent, Lambton, Middlesex, Oxford, Perth and Huron. Children from all these areas travel to Lon- don for assessment and as much treatment as possible. Children will continue to be assessed by Centre specialists and the outreach pro- gram is hoped to improve service to this large geographical at ea. Bruce County needs will determine "rise Honda recalls 9,384 vehicles Honda Canada Inc. announced that it was voluntarily recalling certain 1980 and 1981 year model Prelude vehicles to inspect them for possible undercarriage rusting condi- tions. Prolonged contract with road salt, under certain conditions, may cause eventual cor- rosion which could weaken the front and rear coil spring support brackets. Honda Canada says that although 9,384 cars are covered by the recall, less than 16 percent will require significant repair. Owners of the affected cars will be notified by Honda Canada when to take their cars to an authorized Honda dealer who, at no cost to the customer, will inspect tl?e car. Washer -dryer s pose danger Owners of household washer -dryer units made in Spain by New Pol are warned -to stop using them immediately because of a potential fire and shock hazard. The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) says a number of fires have been reportedly caused by these machines which bear Model Number 108l. CSA says inspection'has shown they do not comply to details of construction as required by its certification and that these machines bear the CSA mark illegally. It is recommended that owners frequency of the therapy services offered throughout the fall and winter. The project will be evaluated in the spring of 1985 and the results will determine if similar pro- grams will be started in other areas. The Thames Valley Children's Centre acknowledges the cooperation of the Kincar- dine General Hospital who made the facilities available for this nroiect.
