'' Courteous Motoring It in Kern-rally ret ognixtxl that colli*' tcsy aud safety In mottling are cloaely allied. For this reason much Current safely Instruction takes the form of es- 1 t*i blUbing rules of courtesy for the highway. An eastern paper rty-enlly of fered eight suggestions for the appro Mil of motorists. Thcfce rules Include euch matters a?, permitting a car to pass one from the rear without assumWvg that the driver of the swifter car is looking for a nrtce. It is possible that he is on important buslivess. Another point is fairness in keeping to one's own share of the road so .that no other car need be crowded or iivconvenlcuced unnecessarily. Steal ing a parking place by pushing in Just as another driver is preparing to hack in, or by shoving some one else's car along the curb to make room for one's own, is regarded as discourteous. Cut. ting directly hi front of a car one has just passed, honking continually when halted ncccssarlly In a traffic Jam and omitting or giving hand signals care lessly are all discourteous. Theso litMe matters of courtesy, if omit ted,, ope n the way for all sorts of accident a, both minor and serious. The though tfulneas a-nd cnutlon needed in their observance make for careful driving and inspire good will in otiher drivers met on the road. ? Sumter Item.
