Women Drivers Asked To Have Safetv Check RALEIGH "Now is the time. to have your car safety checked!" Mias Koy Ingram, director of the Motor Vehicle Deparemtn's regis-' tration division, passed along this advice to all Tar Heel lady drivers J this week as she urged them to keep theii- cars in good repair for1 the slimmer travel season ahead. All homemakers should be inter ested in having the family car saf ety checked, she said. The first is that a check will reduce the chan- 1 ces of any member of the family beint; involved in a traffic acci dent. The second reason is that it is more economical to repair a car when trouble is just starting than it is after the damage has become more extensive. "All of us," Miss Ingram said, "are interested in our family's safety and pocketbook. So we ought to see to it that the family car gets a thorough safety check this month. Women who drive, she said, can take the car in for a check them selves. Those who do not drive can urge some member of the family to perform this Important duty. Miss Ingram's colleague lit the vehicles agency, Col. James R. Smith, highway patrol comman der, offered this tell point check for motorists: brakes, headlights, rear and atop lights, tires, wheel align ment, exhaust system and muffler, windshield wipers, glass, horn and rear-view mirror.
