CA8UAI/TIES OF THE ROAD Three Killed and Fifty-Three Injured During Month of March ? Fewer deaths occurred in acci-, dents on state highways during March ? than during any month in ?South Carolina for more than a year ?only three persons being: killed? according to the acx^dent report given out yesterday by C. H. Moore field, state highway engineer. Twenty persons were seriously in jured, however, and 33 received minor injuries. The death list often runs to ten or above, and not since the'de partment began its record of acci dents in November, 1923, has such a low figure for deaths been reached. The decided drop in the numbe^ of deaths is of course encouraging to highway department officials, who with other agencies have been con ducting a campaign for safe driving. Of the 62 accidents during the month 30 were caused "by reckless driving. The report, as compiled by Robert G. Thomas, engineer in charge of rec ! ords of the department, follows: j" According to report's received by the state highway department, there wepe 62 accidents occurring on state highways in March. Three persons were killed, 20 were seriously injured and 33 received minor injuries. There were 27 collisions between motor cars, one of them being park ed, two with other vehicles, and three with bther objects. Sixteen cars were overturned, 20 were driven off roads, 55 were seriously damaged and 20 were slightly damaged. Four horses were killed. There were six acci dents at public road crossings, and two on or at bridges. Twenty-eight of the accidents oc curred in the day time and 34 after dark. Forty-four were on straight roads, 15 on curves, eight on paved roads and 44 on unpaved roads. Thirty of the accidents were reported as caused by careless driving, 14 by speeding, six by recklessness due to liquor, eight by dazzling headlights, one by no lights, and five by defect? of the car. "One person was killed when car overturned, one was killed by car col liding with telephone pole, and one pedestrian was a child killed on side of road by passing car."?Tuesday's State. Meeting of D.
