Safety
Minister of Transportation
and Communications James
Snow urged Ontario snow-
mobilers to put safety first
when :;they take to the
snowdrifts this season.
"Last season 38 .Ontario
residents were killed in sa,.pow-
mobile -. accidents in this
province -- a staggering 52
per, cent .increase: over: the
previous year.
"That's a'fact I feel very
concerned 'about.. .and so
should, every snowmobiles in
Ontario," .said the Minister.
An additional seven Snow-
mobile drivers and one pas-
senger' drowned when they .
drove their, vehicles into open
water or broke through thin
ice, he said.
Snow pointed out that
despite the fact overall' colli
sions were down 4.1 per cent
from 803 in 14.77/78 to 770
last year, the fatality , rate
matched the all time high
fatality totals of the 1970/71
and 1974/75 seasons.
"I believe the more people
learn about safe snowmobile
operation, the less likely they
are to become accident statis-
tics, "' Snow said.
"'That's why I think begin-
ners, especially youngsters;
could benefit from the driver
training courses now being
offered by the Ontario Feder-
ation of Snowmobile Clubs:"
