Phone 112 Phone 30 If You Drink,Don‘t Drive : If You Drive, Don‘t Speed _ Warns Timmins‘ Chief Officers Instructed to Show no Mercy for Drunk Drivers This Christmas Season. Chief of Police Asks Timmins Motorists This Year for an Accidentâ€"Free Christmas. A suggestion that men turn the keys of their car over to their wives during Chris;‘mas week was again voiced by Chief of Police Leo H. Gagnon, this week. For the past three years the police head has suggested the same thing as a safeéty measure qguring Chris‘mas week. Going back into the fyles, the chief found thatc?kwe» motor accidents hapâ€" pened at Christmas last year,.bhetween Christmas Day and New Year‘s Day. duringâ€"theâ€"Christmas weekâ€"of â€"theâ€"year. before â€"there â€"~were~thirteenâ€"~acetadents and »theo ~year seventeen. _ ducecL_.JLea.duy quring="the past three V Chris‘mas week. ‘"More men drink one too many than women, during the Christmas week, and perhaps if the men would turn the keys of their cars over to their wives the number of accidents might be deâ€" creased," the chief said. It was further discovered that most of the accidents happened at intersecâ€" tions and could have been avoided if the drivers would have taken extra precautions. "The intersection hazzard is always great in the winter when the streets are slippery but the driver who pulls away from. ihe curb without first.look.â€" ing: carefully to see if thq road is clear is a hazard at all times." said Chief Gagnon. "I am instructing my officers to show no mercy for the man who is caught drunk in his car," said the chief. ‘"I am making an earnest plea to automoâ€" bile drivers to exercise caution during the holiday season, and I am also warning the motorists that we are goâ€" ing to safeguard the rights of the pedestrians and other motorists by picking up drunken drivers." Another suggestion that the chief offered was that motorists leave their cars in the garage during the Christâ€" mas season this year. The government has asked the motorist to do all he posâ€" sibly could to save gas and this would be one means of saving the gasoline. The motorist usually drives his car more than is necessary at Christmas time, anyway. Another angle that was pointed out by the chief was that the money that is wasted in accidents could help the war effort~tremendously. The amount of money wasted in motor accidents averages almost a whousand dollars a month and if this money was saved it would help out a lot. Every time a part has t6 be made at the factory it means that the factory has to take time off from making airplane motor parts or other war work. Chief Gagnon pointed out that the government had requested the Porcuâ€" pine °district to raise $100,000 per month in Warâ€"Savingsâ€"Certificates if they wanted to fill their quota and supâ€" ply one bomber per month to the RC. A.P. If the motorists didn‘t have to spend much each month for car reâ€" pairs they would be better able to buy War Savings Certificates, he sgaid.
