Drivers Cautioned To Take It Easy Safety experts of the * tytotor Transportation association of this State has cautioned motorists of the dangers of attempting exces sively long trips over the Christ mas holidays. Their advice was given as part of the South Carolina Trucking Industry’s continuous Courtesy * and Safety campaign which is stressing “Holiday Haz ards” during December. _ Christmas falls on Saturday, the association pointed out. “This will tempt many people to take long weekend and attempt excessively long trips in an effort to get home. We can sympathize with the uni versal desire to ‘be home" for Christmas’, but a trip of this kind is all too apt to mean long hours on the road without sufficient rest, a combination which, by it self, is not conducive to a safe arrival. Added to the chance foi? bad weather and a lot of other people in a hurry and you’ve real ly got trouble brewing,” the group declared. The Motor Transportation As sociation offered this food for thought to those who are consid ering a trip over Christmas. They expressed the opinion that an av erage speed of 35 miles per hour was the most that could be main tained by any but the most ex perienced driver for a trip of any length. Even this seemingly mod est average speed requires open- * highway speeds of 50-55 mph with a minimum of stopping along the way, and you can’t increase your average speed just by increasing your top speed. And a stretch of icy road means you’ve got to re duce your speed to get through safely. “To make your decision,” thq group said, “divide the distance you want to cover by 35 for the time required for the trip. Then add half again as much time for margin of delay due to bad wea ther. Can you make it? Always remember this maxim: Tt is never as important to arrive on time as to arrive safely.” bia, died at his home at 10:46 last Tuesday morning after a week’s illness.
