This leaves joggers and cars competing for the same space in a travel lane. Add to that a backdrop of short daylight hours and the stage is set lor accidents H hen the snow begins to tly drivers have to expect the unexpected and prepare mefitally to share the road surface with joggers, children walking to school, snowmobiles, sleds and a multitude of what are normally users Joggers and other pedestrians can reduce their own U VIW n y danger with an application of reflects mg tape on their clothing and by car-- '' rying a flashlight. Common sense dictates that users grant the to automobiles whenever possible Chances are that a car won t be able to stop even if the driver has good intentions. There is an equally good chance the driver will not have the best ol intentions. He might insist on lus space regardless of the road conditions. That leaves the single option of a nose dive into the snow bank for those pedestrians who want to live another day. Some drivers never see,' ped&trians or snMTT vehicles on the highway at all simply because they do not anticipate them being there Twilight hours pose extraordinary vision problems for drivers and for pedestrians. Contrasts of color and form tend to disappear during that period of illumination. Pedestrians or vehicles may be even harder to see than during total darkness. The majority of all accidents occur between the hours of 4 and 8pm, with twilight being one of the factors responsible. Drivers could ease the problem by using their lights more. For reasons unbeknownst to me some drivers are stingy with their headlights. It costs nothing more to turn them on when the sun goes down than to wait until the law requires their use a half-hou- r Thai Time O' Year later. With the low intensity of.sun-light'i- n winter it makes an automobile much more visible to other drivers if the headlights are shining. Let me emphasize using the headlights and not the parking lights.
