One of the best methods, if one can af- ford the time, is to stay near the water.

Driver Attitude Said Factor In Accidents "The attitude of the driver is a big factor in the toll being tien by accidents in Ontario. We must aim to get every driver to assume his personal responsibility at the wheel," de- clared George B. Jackson, of the Ontario Motor League in an address at the Monday meet- of the. Rotary Club of Oshawa. It was pointed out that in 1903. when the Ontario govern- ment started to register motor vehicles, the traffic situation there had been drastic changes, it was stated. Networks of roads and highways have been built and the community's whole way of life has been transformed. Mr. Jackson asserted that perhaps the greatest unsolved problem is that of accident pre- vention. While there had been The basic cause of accidents,| the speaker continued, is care-| lessness, impatience and_ it-| attention to driving. What ap- peared to be lacking is the common sense and courtesy which should be the attribute of good drivers. Driving, aided by modern hicl v a measure of in this regard, and the number of accidents per million miles had gone down, the problem is not yet solved. He commented that in 1963 102,000 idents had caused was much less p than it is today. In that year there were 178 horseless car- _Tiages registered in the entire . In 1963 there were ,000 vehicles and 2,500,000 property damage totalling $48,- 500,000 brought injury to 43,000 and death to 1,430 men, women' and children. Much of the heart- break and tragedy was need- velled an. esti- 000,000 miles dur- rear. Mr. Jack: pre- less. because nearly all died or, were injured due to someone's ing : that by 1980 there will twice as many vehicles, welling twice as many miles iff the province, DRASTI Car 1 Despite scientific ad in recent years people, have not collectively learned how to con- ways and adequate signs has| become so easy the driver does not have to pay as much at- tention as he once did. Mr. Jackson raised the question as to whether the driver is beiag) spoon-fed to the point where he relies too heavily on signs and forgets his own responsibility. The question is now being asked whether it would be bet- ter to reduce the 2,500 regula- tions now governing the oper- ation of motor vehicles to a minimum and concentrate on rigid enforcement, It is a ques- tion of whether we would have chaos or the driver would learn} trol the motor vehicle.

The glass in the four doors in the west side of the building with their adjacent side panels, and tw6 large plate glass class- room windows were broken by rocks Frank Shine, business ad- ministrator of the Separate School Board said a lot of van- dalism had hit Oshawa schools in the past year. Two weeks ago two large windows were broken at St. Christopher's school caus- ing $160 in damage. Every year |thousands' of dollars are spent by Oshawa school boards re- pairing broken windows. Mr. Shine said that often the attacks have no other motive months. "But they are expensive tar- gets, and something must be done about it," he said. Schools have tried several methods of dealing with vandal- ism but the problem remains. Screens over windows have proved ineffective because they seem to invite snipers with air rifles Now school boards are think- ing of insuring their school win- dows against breakage. Rewards may also be offered for information leading. to the conviction of the attackers.
