When it is realized that these etu-

find lights mentionm so seldom. The

Conclusion.
"That portion of the whole group
of motor vehicle operators which
may] be classed as undersirable be-
cause at imperfect: driving has
caused most of the trouble. This
shows that the attention of the po-
lice and of the state departments
must be more severe and license
suspensions more frequent.
"The final conclusion seems to be
that the state is not. considering the
increase in traffic. hazards.
worse off than in 1924. Speeds in
cities at intersections must be out
down well within the legal limit nnd
accidents on highways more care-
fully inquired into and. in general.
the supervision of the whole motor
vehicle problem tightened up more
nud more."
