Show Speed Laws to Be Enforced At the regular meeting of the Town Board of Bingham on last Wednesday evening with all the members present, Dr. F. E. Straup, presiding, it was decided decid-ed an extra patrolman be placed on duty to enforce the law respecting res-pecting speeding through the narrow streets of the camp. Although some time ago the Board went to the expense of placing notice boards in different differ-ent parts of the camp announcing announc-ing the speed limit in each section sec-tion these laws are persistently violated by motorists who take no notice whatever of the rules laid down. They tear through the street at a terrific speed endangering en-dangering not only the lives of pedestrians but also more earful ear-ful drivers who are willing to, abide by the laws. The law is particularly violated violat-ed in the neighborhood of the school-house and with only the street to play in the lives of the ' school children are being endangered endan-gered every time they leave the school-house. Violaters of the law at this section will receive special atten, tion. Through the co-operation of residents of the camp accidents acci-dents may be prevented and notice no-tice should be given to headquarters head-quarters when the speed limit is exceeded. Motorists should pay particular attention to their speedometers and see that the speed does not indicate more than that designated on the notice no-tice boards, as violaters will be punished to the full extent of the law. |
