Improved records systems, particularly the prompt reporting and recording of major' offenses, clearing through a centralized record division, would be a major spur to improved enforcement and judicial handling in traffic cases, the report emphasizes. The study points out that last year highway accidents in Utah took the lives of 200 persons, caused nearly 4,500 injuries, and resulted in a total economic loss of approximately $22,000,000. Experience indicates that more than nine out of every ten highway accidents are caused by driving errors or by a combination of driving and pedestrian errors. Commenting on needed changes in the report says that the present arrangement of having three separate agencies handle and analyze accident records and reports results in duplication and overlapping. Moreover, the information derived through the present system is often too scanty to be used for effective corrective measures. A consolidation of record handling activities in Utah into a cen- record-keepin- g, By R. J. SCOT!

No clear-cpolicy of coordination between state and local traffic enforcement agencies exists at the present time, although some effort has been made during recent years to encourage communities to assume a greater portion of the responsibility for traffic enforcement work. However, one of the problems encountered in this regard has been the lack of training in traffic matters among many of the local police officers. In order to be most effective, the time and equipment of the State Highway Patrol should be utilized on those highway sections where accidents are occuring and during the hours that they are happening. The key to such selective enforcement is an adequate records system. Since the chief function of the and checking stations has been the collection of taxes and fees from truckers, it would appear that this activity should be transferred from the State Highway Patrol to the State Tax Commission. Such a recommendation was made in a special study prepared for the Legislative Council in 1052. The report notes that at the present time very few of the eligible high school students in Utah complete a driver training course which will meet recently adopted standards. Such courses have been recognized as an effective means of curbing the high accident rate among youthful drivers. Studies in other states reveal that persons who have had driver education courses have fewer than 50 as do as accidents untrained many drivers. Since students who complete approved driver training courses in Utah are eligible to receive special advantages (such as driver licenses at an earlier age and lower insurance rates), it may be desirable to offer such courses in additional schools on a fee basis, the Utah Foundation researchers conclude. ut ports-of-ent- Panguitch Mrs. Ruth A.
