Drivers who feel the no-

are too tough, might think
about this historical note from
the. Ontario 'Safety League:
In ancient Nineveh, where
roads were sacred, posts were
placed along the processional
way inscribed: "Royal Road.
Let no man lesseii it." It was
decreed that anyone who park-
ed a chariot or other vehicle
along the road should be slain
and 'his body impaled.- an a
stake before his house.
