Per Curiam. its digital Appellant, a Utah motorist, was involved in a collision. Both drivers and a police officer who investigated the accident filed accident reports with Utah's Department of Public Safety as required by the Utah Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law. Without affording appellant a hearing on fault, and based solely on the contents of the accident reports, the Director of the Financial Responsibility Division determined that there was a reasonable possibility that appellant was at fault. Appellant did not carry liability insurance and was unable to post security to show financial responsibility. The Director therefore suspended her license. A Utah Circuit Court sustained the Director and the Supreme Court of Utah affirmed. ; 485 P.2d 1404 (1971). Jennings v.

Burson, 402 U.S. 435 (1971). We there held that the Georgia version of a motor vehicle responsibility law was constitutionally deficient for failure to afford the uninsured motorist procedural due process.

( traffic signal system, which was in 1961 the first installed anywhere in the world, S. S. (Sam) Taylor, City Traffic Engineer, said in a statement before the Board of Traffic Commissioners. Taylor reported to the Board on his recent three-wee- k professional study mission in the cities of Toronto, Montreal, Munich, Berlin, Moscow, Paris, London and New York. Taylor based his conclusion about computer-controlle- d signals prinon his discussions and obcipally servations in Toronto and London with top traffic officials. Toronto, he said, spent approximately $5,000,000 to acquire the computer and another $5,000,000 to house it and make the 4,000-wir- e connection to about 800 signals. Referring to an added million-dolla- r relocation cost since then, Taylor said the computer has been in operation for about eight years and must soon be replaced at a higher cost than initially.
