NO. 3 OODERtCH ONTARIO Fewer highway deaths and injuries In the nine months ending September 30, statistics show 129 fewer drivers and passengers killed and 9,765 fewer injured in motor vehicle accidents, compared to the same period last year. Transportation- and Com- munications Minister James, Snow reported this month. "My Ministry feels 7- and many police and safety of- ficials agree -- that Ontario's seat„ belt law and, to some extent, lower , speed limits have had a considerable impact on this drop," said Mr. Snow, "even though not everyone is buckling up and many motorists continue to. drive faster .than theposter speed limits." MTC statistics show that 808 drivers and passengers were killed during the first nine months of 1976, com- pared to 937 at the same time one year ago, a decrease of 14 per cent. "Even more impressive is the 17 per cent decline in the number of drivers • and passengers injured. A total of 49,201 people were hurt in traffic accidents through the first ninemonths of 1976, compared to 58,966, in 1975. - That's close to 10,000 fewer injuries -- and that'sa step in, the right direction," Mr. Snow said. "If this trend continues, Pm optimistic that by year's end Ontario will have had the lowest _..highway __-death -- .and injury rate in 10 years,".said the Minister. , Mr: Snow conluded, • "-`Our latest figures indicate that almost 90 p.er cent of all ac- cidents occur when the condition of the driver is norma?, when driving con- ditioais are normal, proving to me that if every motorist concentrated on driving safely, we could do even better."
