During a month which most Canadians look forward ta as one for celebration. gaiety and goodwill, thausands of people Jase their lives or suifer ser- ious injuries. And most ai these accidents, safety expçrts agree, are unnecessary, caused flot by ice or snow or mechanical failures but by human weak- ness, particularly the tendency ta over-celebrate. The remedy, these same ex- perts say, is as simple as the cause. If you drink too much, don't drive. And if you drink at ail, just ta be safe dr~ink a cup af strong coffee as your "one for the road". Coffee bas a sobering eifect. It is no cure for drunkenness, but it will help the social drinker with just one or two under bis belt. It has helped thousands ai drivers get home saiely In the past and it will help thousands more during this holiday sea.son. The "One for the Road" cam- paign has in a few years estab- lished a good safety record. Last year December accidentai deaths were 50 fewer than in 1952. Some cities reported the first fatality-free holiday month on record. Heads of saiety bu- reaus, automobile clubs and others attributed at least same of this life-saving ta the cam- paign ta make coffee the "one for the road". The figures, safety men add, are still too high. In Canada, last December, 645 people were killed by accidents, not ail but most on streets or bighways. In t1953, 2,906 Canadians were killed in car accidents and t56,734 were injured. Anything that will reduce this toilis con- sidered worth while. In Europe, tests cf accident BCauses are revealing. At the first international conference an alcoholismn and health held in Stockholm, it was found that 62 per cent of accidents in the United States occur when the victim is under the influence of Falcohol. French scientists found that 57 per cent of traific acci- dent victîms were under the influence of alcohol and 40 per cent of these were drunk. Hosts and guestsalaike are urged this year to cooperate in reducing the death toll: hosts, by providing coffee as "«one for the road" and by making sure that parting guests who are in no condition to drive don't get behind the wheel; guests, by taking a cup of coffee as they leave and by using taxis, buses or cars of non-drinking friends when they are unfit ta drive their own cars. One final word of advice comes from the experts. If you are fit to drive, if you have had your cup of coffee, don't travel more than 20 miles per hour on city streets or more than 35 on highways.
