Carbon monoxide gas produc ed by motor vehicle engines and expelled through vehicle exhaust systems is a colorless, odorless, tasteless substance capable o f causing serious illness or death if breathed, and should be guarded against by all motor vehicle operators, the State Highway Department warns. Many traffic accidents have resulted from carbon monoxide poisoning, and at least one fatal accident investigated recently by Highway Department personnel was attributed to that cause.

Fumes from the exhaust can be drawn through the trunk into the passenger compart ment, where they are inhaled by the driver and passengers. Because of the increase in the number of vehicles now being equipped with air conditioning, there is the additional danger of fumes seeping into closed ve hicles if floor boards and ex haust systems are not in proper condition. These items should be checked frequently to make cer tain they are free of leaks. Symptoms of carbon monox ide poisoning include headache and drowsiness, although a per son may be overcome by the gas without exhibiting any of the symptoms at all. Victims in the advanced stages of poi soning usually have a flushed appearance and their breathing becomes labored. Motorists de veloping any of these symptoms should stop their vehicles get out and walk around in the fresh air. If the symptoms reappear, it may be an indication that carbon monoxide is being in-
