Only caution and watchfulness can prevent such an increase this year. The automobile manufacturers are building more safety into cars than ever before. The brakes are better. The lights are better. Tire design and composition has been especially improved for winter driving. Highway planning departments are building safer roads. But all of this margin of safety is thrown away if the motorist increases his speed and decreases his caution because he has been provided with greater mechanical safety. The only thing which will prevent Utah from having a better record than, last year is the senseless waste of this extra margin of safety now available for winter driv-- t. ing.

They must bear in mind that visibility will be less in to come and that the stopping I3 ihe months distance for a moving automobile has been )S increased eight or ten times over the stop-p- i, ping distance of last summer.
