at tbe Post Office Had a call from Don last week in response to my comment about the driver who almost killed Betty and myself at the Mill Willow crosswalk Don and rightly so pointed out there are Just as many irresponsible pedestrians as drivers For he record any per observations in my column ore Just that per sonal unless otherwise stated I can only write about my experiences and my experience was the traffic bad come to a complete stop before we entered the Inter section and the second car from the crosswalk out drove down the wrong side of the road and almost hit us Dons complaint was that we never write about the stupid pedestrians only the stupid drivers That may be true but It was not a stupid pedestrian who almost claimed my life or at least could have seriously Injured me But in all fairness to Dons complaint now that I have set the record straight on my own experience there are many pedestrians who do step out loo quickly giving the unsuspecting motorist no time to stop People assume because they are In the crosswalk the motorists should stop Bylaw he must but lets face it he needs more than three seconds notice By pointing your arm or finger out the driver might see you better and know what you intend to do And to further play the Devils Advocate are there any still speak ing to me those who cross the street with a transport truck coming are downright Inconsiderate Some of those trucks have IS gears and it is no easy task to come to a halt Why dont you just wave him on and wait an ex minute or so While Im on my soap box lets go up a block to the Mill Main comer and the flashing green light That flashing light Is NOT for pedestrians ask any police man This is the third or fourth time I have mentioned It in this column and it pro won be the last That lashing light is for drivers heading south to make a safe left hand turn before the oncoming traffic makes It impossible Having to wait for a pedestrian to saunter across the street defeats the entire purpose of the special light and to me is more annoying than people step ping quickly Into crosswalks But back to the cross walks There seems to be a simmering at times boiling feud in this town between motorists and pedestrians This is very evident in the number of letters we receive here at the Free Press from both sides Unfortunately most of these letters signed so we cannot print them But heres a suggestion to both sides compromise Not all motorists ore The majority are considerate careful and Intelligent By the same token not all pedestrians ore idiots who step out into the street without looking Motorists slow down a lit tle Use that few seconds while waiting for them to ad Just a mirror or get com fortable Pedestrians look before you step and let driver know what you doing And please dawdle let com as look let the I you are I I HANDs group at Ottawa conference by Eldoa Comfort Boon and Betty Comfort of Acton and Linda Bobor of Georgetown attended Operation

decades German engineer ing has been the acknowledged gold standard for the automotive industry This is especially true in the sports sedan category Regrettably however the tag for those cars usually ends up equalling the cars weight in gold One notable exception is the Jetta Because it is built by it is not ust an automobile that many knowledgeable people would like to own it is an automobile many knowl edgeable people can afford to Despite its low the Jetta offers the respected virtues of rack and pinion steering and a inde pendent suspension with MocPherson struts up front And while Jetta s fuel injected engine with a fivespeed manual transmission makes it fun to it also delivers typical efficiency feople who wish to make their even more economical to run can choose the fuel
