MILE14 m, 3U. of Lakeside Country chib will meet way accident fatalities during the three-day Memorial Day week end starting Friday night, the As sociation of Casualty and Surety Companies has announced. Excessive speed is expected to be the “number one killer,” tak ing a toll of 170 lives. Eighty-five more persons will meet death as a result of driving on the wrong side of the road, and another 64 will die because of recklessness. Other major factors contribut ing to the grim score of 425 vic tims are: failure to yield the right of way, which will account for 43 lives, and sleeping at the wheel, which will take 25. Mis cellaneous causes will kill the final 38 of the predicted total. Approximately one-tourth of drivers who are involved in fatal accidents, or pedestrians who are killed, will have been drinking. Most smashups will take place on straight, dry roads, and almost half of all fatalities will occur in broad daylight. “This needless waste of life could easily be avoided,” said Thomas N. Boate, manager of the Association’s accident prevention department, “if drivers would follow a few basic rules of safety and practice courtesy behind the wheel. Driving at a safe, speed alone, can cut the toll almost two- thirds, for in a 65-mile-an-hour accident death comes to one out of every six persons while in a 40-mile-an-hour accident the ra tio is reduced to one out of every 16. If you are taking a trip on the Memorial Day week-end, drive at a safe speed and get there alive."
