Earl Hunsaker Advises On Safe Driving following article Is a reprint from the Utah Sheriff and Police magazine and was written by Sergeant T. Earl Hunsaker of the Utah State Highway Patrol. We think this is one of the finest articles on the subject we have ever read and suggest that all car drivers carefully study it. The In addressing you on this national and important subject, Save a Life, I realize my inability, in the fact that the spirit of the 20th century is speed and the automobile chugged Its way Into the American scene at the beginning of the 20th century. No one seemed to take the matter seriously. It seemed to be a remarkably harmless toy and If an occasional chicken lost Its life damages could be easily righted by a few contrite words or perdid fad but this a dollar, haps fade, and, instead the auto- has become the all important Industry in modern civilization. But the unfortunate thing for us is that we have not fully learned to appreciate this modem means of transportation without paying such a tremendous price. The automobile of today is a marvel of mechanical safety and engineering. The highways are the results of years of scientific effort to reduce the hazards of traffic. Law enforcement is more more universal. and Intelligent Yet, as each year rolls Out of existence we go on record as having killed more people than the preceding year. One of the chief answers to my I way of thinking is education. am happy that we have today a number of high schools throughout the state of Utah that are teaching courses in safe driving and walking; and that the University of Utah and the Utah State Agricultural College have maintained these courses for the past two years. It was my conviction seven and a half years ago when I entered the law enforcement game that if we could have taught these courses In high schools and colleges that in a few years we would have the well under control. When you stop to realize the millions of dollars that have been spent Ironing out crooks and turns, widening highways, posting safety signs, engineering, education and enforcement into this great cam palgn, the average layman has little conception of the experiments and Investment that have gone into making the automobile of today a marvel of mechanical safety engineering, except for the thousands of miles of improved highways so well engineered that he can round the curves at a speed of 56 to 60 miles per hour. The present use of the automobile, both for business and pleas- ure js comparatively a recent de- velopment when you stop to realize that at the beginning of this century there were only 8,000 automobiles registered. Today there is in the neighborhood of 28,100,000. We have progressed from the horse and huggy days into an era when practically any individ-nuaj can own and operate a powered motor vehicle that to us a few years ago was almost inconceivable. A recent survey conducted which covered a period of showed that we killed or 54,900 people by automobile, 6,390 more than we killed during Americas entire participation in the World War. We wounded during that war 324,000 American soldiers, sailors and marines. Dur18 months time we ing that wounded 1,900,000 people by on Page Four) tion held Saturday at the county court house.
