KILLED OR' INJURED?
During the past 15 years 9,567 persons have been killed and 170,000 -
injured in motor vehicle accidents' in Ontario.
If the present rate continues it is estimated that the same number will
be killed and quite as many injured in accidents on our Streets and
highways within the next 15 years.
The Department of Highways, the police and other organizations
Ind agencies are working to reduce this needless waste of life, health
and property. But the final solution of this problem is Yours—the
drivers and the pedestrians. YOU AND ONLY YOU CAN STOP
ACCIDENTS.
Accept your responsibility as a citizen and do your part each day to
make highway conditions safe.
