Irwin Haskett, Minister s: David took 17 ears of love from his parents, first ci s onours from his !and C David Left for good. Brilliant high school student dies in car crash said the headline. AH that love, all that brilliance, all that money; all gone for nothing. Automobile accidents kill moreyoungCanadians than anything. More than disease; more than all other accidents put together. It costs some $8,000 in tax money just to pre- pare a student for university. A thorough high school driver training program costs $40 per student, and takes 50 hours of instruction. Small costs against the losses. The automobile insurance industry promotes young driver training. Bursaries, text books and free instruction are given to high school teachers. They in turn teach the students. The industry also awards cash discounts on auto insurance premiums to students who pass the course. Driver training isn't a frill. School boards with experience know it's a proven method of reduc- ing accidents. Urge and back high school driver training in your community. Keep the Davids with us.
