One Vehicle Can ' ^ | Cause Accident ? i . , Anyone who thinks it takes two I motor vehicles to make an accident I ! would be greatly disillusioned by I the Highway Safety Division's traf1 fice accident summary for the first six months of this year. This summary, completed this ; week, reveals thai only 129 of the 1 ' 345 traffic fatalities on North Caro- j j Una streets and highways the first'" half of this year involved collis- I ions between two motor vehicle?. ; The other 413 fatalities were distrl bated us follows: 15!t involved collisions bet ween motor vehicles and pedestrians, lit; involved motor vehicles than ran off the roadway due to excessive, speed. 2!t resulted from collissions between motor vehicles ' and railroad trains, 35 involved ' cars that overturned on the road-j way. 20 resulted from collisions be- 1 , tvveen motor vehicles antl bicycles..,1 31 occurred In motor vehicles that 1 struck fixed objects, such as bridge abutments. 5 resulted from collisions between motor vehicles and j animal-drawn vehicles, and 17 were other non-collision accidents such when someone falls off a tnovins ' vehicle. j . ' '* -' J * In other words, 'it doesn't take ? two cars to have an accident. If! ?j there's only one car on a highway 1 and that car is driven improperly, > at an excessive rate of speed or IB ? a careless and reckless manner, r that car can soon kill someone very quickly. It Isn't "the other fellow" who causes an automobile to be hit f hv a train: it Isn't "the nth?r fat 1 tow" who causes automobiles to' 1 land upside down In a cornfield af1 ter railing to straighten out a curve t In four out of five fatal accidents, there Is only one motor vehicle inI volved. and the driver of that veil hlcle generally is at fault. m vx * ' - ?*" * . .
