WELL, NOT EXACTLY,, Ten years agog polio was a major killer of youth; today, vaccine has made the disease a comparative rarity. But, even when polio was claiming lives by the hun- dreds, traffic accidents were killing more people under 25 than any other single cause of death—and they still are, "Jo we have an accident vaecine/ No. People can't be vaccinated against accidents, but the toll can be reduced through the teaching of cor- rect driving habits—and safety hab- its—to our teen-age population at the formative stages in their lives. This is what the automobile in. surance business does through its sponsorship of the National Teen- age Safe Driving Championship the culmination of a coast-to-coast series of safe driving competitions involving more than 30,000 young drivers in 225 Canadian communi- ties each year.
