STOWS
By Ted Resting
Hunters and fishermen spend
time driving on dangerous, poor
ly maintained roads than perhaps
any other segment of the popula
tion. Sportsmen more accustom
ed to commuting to work than
handling overloaded automobiles
determinedly drive all night to
save previous vacation time, with
no more trip preparation than fil
ling up with gas, checking the oil
and putting fishing gear into the
trunk.
Probably confronting you, If
you drive on weekends or vaca
tions to faraway hunting or fish
ing spots, are the twin problems
o f night driving and rural roads.
Night driving, according to the
National Safety Council Is from
two to three times as hazardous
as daytime driving—despite gre
atly reduced traffic. To cap this,
driving on rural roads Is more
dangerous, by far, than driving on
expressways or topgrade state
and federal highways. The com
bination of these two conditions
can be lethal.
“The obvious problem in
night driving is vision,” reminds
Steve Franzmeier in the current
issue of Sports Afield Magazine.
Some things you can handle—
keeping the windshield and head
lights clean (carry some old wip
ing rags),_ not overdriving head
light rang’e (60 mph usually is
the top safe speed at night), dim
ming your lights when you’re ap
proaching another car and so on
—but some things are beyond
your control.
If you have any choice at all,
take the best road—preferably
an expressway or thruway, be
cause they have accident rates
far below those of the average
highway. The national average
rate, per 100 million miles, of
deaths on highways is 5.3; of
interstate roads It drops to an
average of 2.6; on rural roads it
often zooms to 15—which means
the odds against you are five
times worse on back roads than
on expressways.
For all-night driving, rural
area or otherwise, you should
carry certain basic emergency
equipment; flashlight,flares,tow
rope and spare fuses. Here’s
one excellent safety Idea that
can make up for forgotten flares
or burned out flashlight batteries;
Line the Inside of your hubcaps
with reflective paint. Then, if
trouble should come, the hub
caps can be propped up along
the road as an emergency warn
ing signal that can’t burn out.
