Show What Readers Think Claims Old Cars Are Not Menace on Roads Editor Telegram: I have been a constant reader of The Telegram Tele-gram and Tribune for years and I read the editorials most as It is there where you get the good news condensed. In regards to the annual or semiannual Inspection of automobiles. auto-mobiles. I think they are carrying car-rying this a little too far, and not in the right direction. First of all. these brand new cars are not so perfect on the road as you might think. Try to drive against them with their dazzling lights. It is Just like taking your life in your hands. Second, I think the whole business busi-ness of inspecting cars for mechanical me-chanical defects is a lot of hokum. ho-kum. All you have to do Is see the accidents and check up on hit and run cases, speeders, etc In 99 out of 100 cases you will find these accidents or violations Involve the latest high-powered cars, equipped with sll the safety devices that modern engineers can put on them. Look at all the old ears running run-ning around that can't do ever 23 miles aa hour. Do you ever see them involved in accidents or drives by hit and run motorists, or breaking speed laws? - Orson Berg., . |
