Certainly not the least of these subjects is highway safety, and automobile inspection. And usually, some questions are raised. Like -- did you pass? The query is often posed by one who has recently been exposed to PMVI -- periodic motor vehicle inspection. And the answer, in a surprisingly high percentage of cases, is no! However, the answer may not be so surprising, when you consider one expert's opinion. In testimony before the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee, H. C. Stivers, then president of the Motor and Equipment Manufacturers Association, Estimated thai 42% of the cars on the highways have defects that affect the safe operation of the vehicle. Supporting this figure is a study conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. It reports that 42% of the vehicles brought in for inspection, voluntarily or in spot checks, do not pass the minimum requirements for mechanical safety. The Institute's study was categorized in four, groups: Vehicles up to one year old (25% rejection rate); two to five years (40% rejection rate); six to ten years (51% rejection rate): and 11 years or older (53% rejection rate). In another report, the City of Detroit utilized a specially developed test lane to ferret out defects in automobiles.

Major defects centered around improper wheel alignment and steering assembly. Other components that inspection teams check closely for defects include shock absorbers, windshield wipers, headlight aim and wheel vibration. Without question, they all affect the safe operation of a vehicle. Annual in Ontario Just across the border from Detroit, in Windsor, Ontario, automobile inspection has been an annual occurrence for the past six years. It's conducted both on a voluntary basis, and in spot checks during May. The vehicle test equipment is owned by the Provincial government; tests are conducted by Windsor police. Police Chief Gordon Preston and his department are very pleased by the growing numbers of Windsor motorists who volunteer their cars for inspection. Their most recent test period showed that of 4700 owners who voluntarily put their cars through the check lanes, almost half couldn't pass the test. Owners failing the test were instructed to have their cars repaired to bring them back up to the standards set down by the Provincial government. However, the point is that by volunteering, motorists are showing their concern with the safety of their vehicles -- moreover, they're doing something about it. In the Windsor program last year, safety officials also ordered 327 vehicles through the test equipment--vehicles that were obviously in disrepair, and from appearances, unsafe. Fifty-seven were approved, 145 were rejected and had to have repairs made, while 125 were totally condemned. Accidents Reduced It would seem, after a lot of talk about automobile safety and vehicle inspection, something really concrete is being done about it. All states now are required to implement a program of vehicle inspection, within guidelines issued by the National Highway Safety Bureau -- or take the chance of Helpful Tips on . . . How to Get More Miles Per Gallon Two drivers of the same automobile may get different gas mileage due to the differences in driving habits. Other factors include driving conditions and mechanical condition of the automobile. It costs almost 50% more to drive 80 mph than it does to drive 50 mph. Cost of driving 60 mph is 25% higher than cost of driving 30 mph. • Wet driving condition!): Slowing down under wet or snowy conditions conserves fuel. Wet pavement can reduce mileage by 1 mile per gallon. • When parked, turn off engine. One minute of idling uses more fuel than restarting uses. • Starting and stopping. Avoid "jack rabbit" starts, sudden stopping and racing on the green light. • Windy conditions. ' Drive slower if you're interested in better fuel economy. * * * Here are some suggestions on care and mechanical condition of your car for better fuel economy: 4° • Use good grade of gasoline recommended by the manufacturer of your automobile. • Be sure the thermostat isn't stuck in the open position. A warm-running engine is more efficient (uses less fuel) than a cold-running engine. • Be sure' tires are inflated properly. • Balance and align tires. losing some of their Federal highway construction funds. In some Canadian Provinces (like the law that was passed in Ontario effective November, 1968) motor vehicles must be inspected and certified safe before the vehicle title can be This could have been forestalled. In Windsor, Ontario, a policeman removed the tags from a car following a safety inspection. With brakes defective and alignment components worn, this car was rejected. Repairs had to be made before plates were returned to the owner. A more careful motorist would have been able to avert this embarrassment if he were in the habit of having his car checked periodically by competent mechanics. , transferred to another owner, more important, fatalities are ifi areas without an inspec- Does that sound like black- reduced. tion plan the fatality rate was mail?
