ARE YOU II GGII3 DRIVER?
By E. T. Strong,
General Sales Manager,
Buick Motor Company,
Suppose that you were to ask
one hundred average motorist
this question: “Are you a good
driver?” Without hesitation, each
would say. “Absolutely.” And
yet if you were to examine that
one hundred in the fine points of
driving, not more than two or
three would deserve t 5 be quali
fied as expert drivers. Not more
than that could show by their
driving that they were get
ting out of their cars all that
manufactures were putting into
them. And most most them
would demonstrate that they were
either abusing some particular
feature or neglecting to use some
other part that the manufacturer
had developed for a definite pur
pose. Except for acquiring a ier
tain ease, which comes with prac
tice in anything, most motorist are
but little better off as drivers than
they were when they started.
The Art Of Driving
Good driving is more than the
ability to steer, to shift gears, use
the accelerator and to yet in and
out of tight places. These are
the fundamentals and when Ihost
are mastered the art of mere dnv
ing ends and the art of driving be
gins. Driving is a science, just as
farming, running a store, or cook
ing is a science. One can manage
to get along without giving it a
great deal of thought. But the
man or woman who gains the
most in comfort, convenience and
economy, is the one who is con
stantly endeavoring to improve
his or her driving.
Studying The Art
The good motoist is always
looking for new methods that he
can appl>\ to his own driving
Hi learns how to drive with safety
over strange roads, how best to
make both right and left turns in
the country as well as in the city,
how to go down sleep grades, how
to start and stop on grades, how
to approach strange or dangerous
crossroads or railroad crossings,
how to drive over the top of hill,
how to negotiate sand and mud,
iiow safely to pass vehicles going
in the same direction and how to
meet those approaching him
These are but a few of the things
which a driver can do in the com
mon way or the expert way.
If he does them in the expert
way, he is an efficient driver. Not
only is he getting the most out of
his car, but he is being the easiest
on his car. And at the same time,
he is driving safely and not en
dangering his iii'e and the lives of
his passengers, as well as the lives
of other motorists and pedestriai s
A Menance
With motor cars increasing in
number so rapidly, the need for
efficient driving, universally is
really great. The man who is in
efficient in his driving is a far
greater liability to his community
than the efficient driver who
speeds.
Since the days when fifteen
miles an hour was the too speed
for a motor car, most of us have
connected fast driving with dan
ger. We see a car hurrying dow n
the street at more than the usual
rate and we sav that the driver is
careless. If brought into court,
ne w'ould no doubt be branded as
reckless.
As a matter of fact, the fast
driver ma\ be a lot safer at large
than the inefficient driver who
creeps along at a snail’s pace. We
know of an i xperienced motorist
who li. d the occiiion to make a

road conditions in about five
hours. The second driver made
the same trip during a rain, when
the roads were slippery, im less
than four hours. And the second
journey was by far the safer.
Why? Simply because the second
driver was efficient.

We are not attempting to de
fend fast driving. That is danger
ous or not according to the man
behind the wheel.
What we have in mind is a
wider and more extensive appli
cation of the principles of right
driving, which includes much
more than strict obedience to
traffic regulations.
We would like to see more
fine driving, more real thought on
the part of drivers and more
kindly treatment of other motor
ist. These things are possible ard
they are bound to come eventual
ly. If they were here today, how
much better driving conditions
would be for all of us.
