vehicle collisions occur on dark and slick roads youre wrong Almost per cent of all colli sions occur on dry roads with about twothirds occurring dux daylight hours Ontario Transportation Minister Ed Philip said as he released the Ontario Road Safety An nual Report The report outlines a broad range of statistics pertaining to motor vehicle collisions and their causes in Ontario The summer months of June July and August can be the most nsky for motorists as almost one- third of all fatal collisions during this time with per cent occurring on and Saturdays In there were 228398 reportable motor vehicle crashes In 1989 that number rose to 247 an increase of or eight per cent The number of people who died in motor vehicle crashes rose slightly both years to 1237 in 1988 and to 1286 in 1989 However the overall rate of fatalities per number of licensed drivers has remained fairly stable since Alcohol continued to be a major factor in motor vehicle collisions Alcohol was present in per cent of the drivers killed in and per cent of the drivers killed in down from per cent in The seventy of the crash in creased with alcohol involve ment The report shows we have made progress said Philip Some may say that is good because things arent getting any worse To me that simply isnt good enough I want to see the trends point to even greater safe ty on our roads Philip made the comment before presenting a grant to the Ontario Traffic Conference to continue its work in resear ching and promoting traffic safe ty in a speech last night to the OTC annual banquet in Niagara Falls During his remarks Philip reviewed many of the trends in dicated by the safety report The collision rate increase is due in part to an expanding population and a continuing in crease in the number of licensed drivers and vehicles In 1989 there were 6290 424 licensed drivers and registered vehicles in Ontano Seat belt use continues to be the single most cost effective road safety measure Still 6581 people were killed or injured while not weanng seat belts And most recent statistics show only per cent of Ontanos drivers use seat belts and less than half of young children were correctly buckled up Young drivers continue to be overrepresented in collision statistics Drivers in the to 24 age group compnsed 15 per cent of all licensed drivers The drivers killed in this age group represent per cent of all driver fatalities One out of the three fatalities was under the age of 24 While motorcycles continue to be over represented in fatal crashes the numbers have been decreasing over the past five years The most significant factor traffic collisions is driver behaviour said Philip The most common driving errors are failure to yield the rightofway too fast and following too closely There is no place on On tanos public roads for ag gressive drivers who feel they have to pass every other vehicle on the road CANADIAN TIRE CORRECTION NOTICE For The Following Publications SUMMER SUPPLEMENT PAGE
