Ever stop to realize that the accident you were not involved in, costs you.
money just the same ? I
You were mighty lucky at that. Lucky not to have been maimed or ;
killed. But you don’t get off scot-free. Every accident costs you money in
the form of increased insurance cost.
Automobile insurance rates are determined each year on the basis of the
accident experience of the preceding three years. In areas where residents
have had accident records, insurance rates are higher.
Strict enforcement of traffic regulations will reduce speeding and reck
less driving—primary causes of accidents. But you, yourself have the big
responsibility. Drive with care. Remember that traffic regulations are, in
fact, safety regulations—obey them. And just as important, keep car in
safe driving condition.
f There’s only one way to reduce the cost of accidents —reduce the number
'of accidents!

a comparison like this: Plymouth engineers

which we’ve listed below, prove conclusively

Here’s just some of the overwhelming proof that Plymouth is “best buy”l
V.-' ■ I
Comfort Level Seating
Both front and rear Plymouth seats are highest.
Plymouth research found this more natural seating
position gives greater posture protection and comfort.
Front Wheel Brakes
Plymouth engineers provide two hydraulic brake cyl
inders in each front wheel to ensure smooth, straight
line stops without “grabbing." The "other two” have
only one brake cylinder in each front wheel.
Spark Plus*
Because they last up to five times longer before re
setting is necessary, Plymouth uses resistor-type spark
plugs. This type plug also produces smoother idling,
better gas economy at low speeds.
OH Bath Air Cleaner
An oil bath air cleaner can reduce engine wear as
much as 90%. This unit is standard equipment on all
Plymouth models; it is available only at extra cost on
the other two low-price cars.
