In view of ago but the workman were pulled off this fact It behooves local motorists to thoroughly familiarize themselves with the new automobile laws before they go into Salt Lake county and thereby probably save themselves a five spot. The reason for the war against Listen with the wise and talk with traffic violations is that Utah and Salt Lake county especially, up to the present date, is shattering all records with regard to auto accidents and' fatalities, and unless drastic action is taken the year 1935 will set an appalling record along this line. Other counties and cities of Utah should follow this lead In an attempt to make the highways safer for travel.
