Don't tear up road surfaces by immoderate chi -zing les the back wheels of your car that push it along— and it's resistance that keeps it moving -the resistance of the road surface. At moderate speeds, the surface remains in place. At higher speeds a portion of the surface is displaced by the friction of the wheels. The higher the speed, the more material is displaced. The speed limit exists in the lmv to save the surfaces of roads, as well as to prevent accident. Because the highway is clear, you may think the law may be broken. This is a mistake. There is always danger of damaging the road by excessive speed. The material which is displaced each year by auto- mobiles driven too fast would weigh hundreds of tons. Tht repair work made necessary costs thousands of dollars. The public of Ontario have spent $160,000,000 to make roads easier and safer for you to travel on. The law seeks to preserve from accident those who use the roads, and to conservehe roads themselves. The Government requests the co-operation of yourself and every other automobile driver in maintaining the condition of the roads. Take pride in the highways of Ontario. You are interested, for they are yours. They are being main- tained with your money. While the Government relies on the goodwill and co- operation of the great majority of motorists, notice is given that the enforcement of The Highways Act will be all the more rigorous in the case of those who disregard the law and this request.
