Robert P. Holding, Jr., Chair man of the Board of First-Citi zens Bank and Trust Company of Smithfield, made the state ment today to the safety commit tee of the Safety Council’s Board of Directors residing in the Pied mont.

Holding said the State’s death toll lias risen 25 per cent since 1931 and injuries from collisions have jumped 42 per cent in the last four years. In 1964, 1,575 persons died and 49,129 were ■hurt. ‘‘Further delay in adopting a periodic motor vehicle Inspection law means tha; the upward spir al of death and injury probably will continue unabated,” he said. Holding said an effective safe ty program requires balanced doses of engineering, enforce ment, and education. “Inspection would produce quicker results than any other legislative measure because safe ty of the vehicle has ihecn the clement most consistently neg lected in North Carolina,” he said. Governor Dan Moore has re commended passage of an in spection bill to the General As sembly. Holding said vehicle inspection programs have produced imme diate reduction in accidents in every one of the 21 states where thev are now in use. North Carolina showed a 12 ! per cent decline in fatalities dur- ’ng its one-year expe’-ience with inspection in 1948. he said. The nrogram emploved an insuffi cient number of state-operated stations and led to repeal of the law the following year. The promsed system would use private neighborhood garages and nualified service stations supervised by the State. A mean ingful inspection would be per formed by a firm where car own ers are already doing business. And it would probably take place while vehicles received regular se’vice. Holding said. Other points brought out at the meeting included: —Special studies have shown that mechanical failure may con tribute to as many as one-third of all traffic accidents. - In states requiring inspec tion, up to one-half do not pass, g-lS.4-22-Dd I repairs to bring them up to ^ safe standards average less than .ZIP Code.
