preferences as to the speed at which we travel some of us like to drive slowly others like to travel faster i am not referring to the speed fiends who drive recklessly and dangerously but to the rank and file of sane sensible drivers there is a wide variation in our preferred speeds when the road is clear and open we have every reasonable right to give these preferences free rein and travel at any speed which suits us up to the legal limit but 1 believe you will agree that when traffic is heavy it is neither courteous nor fair to travel faster or slower than the general speed at which the traffic is moving at such times the deliberately slow driver blocks the road for all who are behind him it becomes irksome and wearying to those who have long trips still ahead of them and finally induces them to cut in or take chances which they would never take under other circumstances on the other hand it is equally discourteous for fast drivers to cut in and out of the traffic lane when traffic is moving at a reasonable speed it upsets and un nerves the more cautious drivers increases the acci dent hazard tremendously and invariably saves only a very few minutes of time in the end i appeal to both kinds of drivers to let themselves be governed by the true spirit of courtesy to consider the convenience and the safety of fellow- motorists as well as their rights let us show the same courtesy to others on the highway that we show to visitors in our homes it will go a long way toward making our highways safer and in making motoring still more pleasant sincerely yours minister of highways province of ontario thy courtesy it works both ways im tl
