Uo you ever lose your lemperje
U the wheel of your car? The^
,'ensus takers are uot asking I'hts d
question; Safety Engineers of ^
Insurance Companies are, bin a
rou don't .have to answer. j?
All sorts of accidents, the Safe- t
ty Engineers say, are caused by <1
the driver who, steady as a rock 1
it all other times, is choleric, lm- ?
patient), touchy as T.N.T., and i
mad as a hornet, when back of i
the wheel. <
Bumpers are bent, fenders are t
folded and frames are twisted, <
they say, as a result of the col
lisions occurring everyday when|<
the irascible gentleman described! I
above lets himself go a little too|'
much. I'
Here's how it happens. Our^t
friend gets a late start driving to 1
work in the morning. He gets out
in the stream of traffic and first
thing be knows some blankety
blank driving a 1920 car is roll- i
ing along ahead* of him at 10
niles per hour. He la holding back
wo or three cars, but their drlv- 1
rs seem satisfied with bis delib- '
rale middle of the road proce- j
lure. *
Our friend puts up with it for '
while but his temper is begln
ilng to rise. He steps on it, in
ending to pass them all. The '
leliberate man up ahead has ap- ]
irouched a side road on the left j
ind begins to turn without) sig- ,
tailing. What to do? The stage
s set for an accident. Perhaps it !
loesn't happen, but the stage is
let and neither of the drivers Is
intlrely to blame.
But you and 1 will meet driv
jrs like the slow one who disre
gards the wishes of others who
vant to proceed more briskly. If
we control our impatience and
eniper we will live longer any
vay, besides saving fenders.
A total of 114 persons were
killed in traffic accidents in North
Carolina the first two months of
1940.
