If trends of the past few Ubor
Day weekends hold true, ap
proximately SS people will be
killed in North Carolina auto
crashes during the coming
throe-day hoU&y. Moreover,
approximately 7W will suffer
inpnies in the expected 1.210 or
more holiday-peiiod smashups.
Warnings seem to da little

errors b greatly magnified

swarm onto the stale's roads,
going to and coming from the
beaches, mountains, and other
