drivers to proceed at a safe,
reasonable ' speed, caretully
noting what other cars arel
aoing. V'v ; " 'j-;
"If many cars are passing
you," they : explained, ; "you
are probably going too alow,
holding hack-normal traffic.
On the other hand, if you
are passing . many cars,
chances are you are going
too fast'' 1 ;
Excessively slow speeds, in
some instances, can be just
as ' much a problem as ex
cessively high speeds. -, -i
. The emphasis, ; officials
pointed out is keeping all
traffic moving at as near a
uniform rate as possible.
Seven fatal crackups over
the Fourth last year came
from excessive ' speed, ac
cording to agency records.
