Thanks to some patiently comâ€" piled data and even more paâ€" tiently studied statistics, experts Along with the time factor in the human equation, the safety experts are turning an ever more searching eye on another aspect of time and motor cars. In 1959 wheat accounted for half of Canada‘s exports of $139,â€" 900,000 to Japan. The 29â€"yearâ€"old London man who died in the accident illusâ€" trated here felt that he had to make time. In the last forty seconds of his life, he sped past six cars waiting at the railway crossing, crashed through the crossing gates and drove into the side of an express train movâ€" ing at close to 80 miles an hour. He saved time, all right; and then there was no more time for him, either to save or to waste. Highway _ safety _ engineers have stressed the "time factor" in studies of motor accidents. ‘The driver who feels the comâ€" pulsion to "make time," the one of a road to bypass a slowâ€"movâ€" who speeds along the shoulder ing line of traffic is a familiar entry in the statistics on fatal and serious accidents. But it could happen hereâ€"and all too often does. In Weston, Rexdale, Woodbridge and North York there are gradeâ€"level railâ€" way crossings. And, hereabouts, the proportion of motorists who try to "make time" in cars which are being driven on "borrowed time" is just as high as in Lonâ€" don, Ontario. The accident pictured in the two illustrations . at the left didn‘t happen _ anywhere . near here, Actually, it was in another city.

All persons having claims against the Estate of EDWIN NOTICE TO CREDITORS AND OTHERS In the Estate of EDWIN WEBSTER BROWN, deceasâ€" WEBSTER BROWN, late of The Ontario Safety League quotes from the U.S. traffic fatality statistics for the first five months of 1960. The two largest cities had substantial imâ€" provements over the correspondâ€" ing figures for 1959. New York City‘s total deaths was 227 for Januaryâ€"May, a a 25% reduction on last year‘s 301. Chicago with 83 deaths was down 245. But Los Angeles, Detroit, Philadelâ€" phia, Baltimore showed increases. The total for the whole country was virtually unchanged: 13,700 in 1960, just 50 less than 1959. But since more miles were driven the mileage death rate (deaths per 100 million vehicle miles) dropped to a record low of 4.8 as against 5.1 for the same five months in 1959.

The highest mark, of 99 per cent, in grade 2 theory examinâ€" ation was obtained by Patricia Boultbee. The Ontario Safety League reminds drivers that to leave an automatic transmission car in "Drive" position with the engine running is inviting disaster, if children or pets aré in the car, or might get in. Cultivate the fixed habit of shifting into "Neutral" or "Park" whenever you stopâ€"even for a traffic light. Twenty music pupils of Miss Anne G. Govenlock, of Weston, have succeeded in the Royal Conâ€" servatory of Music examinations. Police in Evansville, Ind., felt frustrated when they interviewed Richard Bivins recently, after he crashed the family car into a telephone pole while doing about 35 mi.p.h. They were unenthusâ€" ed about his driving technique. He sits on the floor to operate the pedalsâ€"the steering takes care of itself. However, no charges were laid: Richard is two years old. Short Ones ForTheRoad can tell you to the fraction of an inch how much a tire wears in the course of a tenâ€"mile run at ‘vuyinx speeds. They can estiâ€" mate with impressive exactness how much more wear a tire gets when brakes are applied suddenly at varying speeds. Their figures can prove why certain fabrics and materials are cheaper in the long run than othérs which «re initially less expensive. With a nice impartiality and absolute disdain for advertising claims, they can distinguish between the values of different makes of tires without regard to brand nlmes.‘ The highway safety engineer has long since learned that the mileage figures on a speedomter are not the only factors in estiâ€" The economics of regular overâ€" hauls and repairs have proven too well and too often to be a subject of argument. The famâ€" jliar "wail" that "something‘s always going on that car of mine" is not only true, it‘s inâ€" evitable. Every mile you travel, every day that passes takes something out of a car. Time changes _ everything, including car parts and components. Time, in the vocabulary of the experts, is something that will work for you if you work with it. Drivers who take time to be safe, take time into account in the care of their cars. Accordâ€" ing to the highway safety enginâ€" cers, the way to beat the time factor is to anticipate it. They urge motorists to make repairs and to send cars in for overhaul well before an actual parts failâ€" ure or breakdown makes . it necessary. Time poses other dargers to the motorist. The car that was in good running order in the early spring may be an entirely different vehicle at summer‘s end. Moving parts have worn. Friction has taken its toll in the engine and in the brake drums. The tire treads that were sharp, road gripping and dependable a few months < ago have grown balder since, possibly at a highly accelerated rate in the scorching heat of travel on roads scorched by the summer sun. mating the roadâ€"worthiness of a car.
