There Is another name for the
little game of repeatedly flouting
the speed laws. It might be called
“overtaking the undertaker." Cer
tainly thers is ample statistical
evidence that habitual players in
this lottery lose everything.
Of the 35,000 persons killed in
traffic accident^ last year, 24,000
met death through some reckless
or illegal action on the part of a
driver, according to The Travel
ers’ analysis of 1940’s accidents
which has just been released.
T^ere are a dozen such illegal ac-

one item: “Exceeding the speed

Ing drivers caught up with th;
undertaker in 1940, and almost a
quarter of a million others caught
up with an ambulance.
As long as the records have
been kept, the analysis shows, ex
ceeding the speed limit has led
the list as the major cause of
traflBc accidents in the U. S.
