tktlur traffic regulation^ In the city
ntxl (ouutry should be provided by
the a thorltles of the state, county
nnd niunlclpalltlei). Scarcely a div
pusses hut thut there ure accident
enured by truffle conditions nnd in
many Instances serious and fatal ac
■eldcnt* occur. In Athens there ha
been a number of accidents and somr
death* resulting therefrom. Too much
cure and protection cannot he given
to tho public In the enfarcetnrnt uf
raffle regulations. The uutoniobllci
and trucks have come Into aucb gen-
< rn| use. that It Is ail every-day oc
currence for someone to be run down
mid killed or seriously Injured. It has
been stated on good authority that
more people are killed aud wounded
in automobile accidents than there
uore American soldiers klllqd and
wounded during the same period of
tho world war. The Philadelphia
Kocord, one of the most reliable news
papers published, lias given an ac
count of the deaths aud nccldcutr.
Which It Interesting. The Record
, »»y«:
“The uationnl traffic evidently
ncads more regulation than it gets.
. lu nineteen months of war we lost
48,0(10 men killed iu battle or'died of
wounds, nnd In the same pcrloi) 91.000
persons were killed on our highways.
75.000 of Hum being school children.
' The figures are almost' Incredible, bul
they were produced at a conference
on highway traffic regulation.”
From the foregoing It Is ' readily
seen that there Is too much of reck
less driving on the highways and on
the streets of towns and cities. Uti
les, something Is done to check reck
less driving, there is no telling where
the trouble, wilt end.
It Is true that occasional*- the pedis
trlnn Is responsible for the accident,
hut largely it Is the driver wlio is re
,sponsible and some drastic regula
tions' should be enforced In tho
traffic of towns aud eltlea. j
..Athens hna splendid ordinances
covering every feature of regulating
traffic for the enforcement of the law
and drastic measures should' be re
sorted to In all Instances where tht
driver Is shown to be responsible for
the accident.
