Pacific Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - October 14, 1948, Tokyo, Japan Page two Pacific stars and stripes m oct. 14 traffic accidents Hurt health record this is one of a series of health information articles prepared by the department of Public health on Guam no series of articles on health on Guam would be Complete without one on our greatest cause of death traffic accidents. One has Only to watch for a few minutes the steady Stream of All types of vehicles playing leapfrog on Marine drive to understand the seriousness of this problem Here. There Are a number of fac tors involved in this problem. In the first place a motor vehicle Ages rapidly Here due both to the climate and Lac of proper service facilities. Vital parts. Can rust almost through or tires can become badly deteriorated and Sud Denly Jive Way with any Sud Den Strain such As rounding a eur or passing other vehicles. Often cars have known defective part but no spare part is available to re place it yet the vehicles Are utilized. Your car May be checked for defects by someone who knows Little or nothing about what he is looking at and a serious defect May not be Dis covered or found until it i too late and an Accident occurs. Driving while under the in fluence of alcohol is a Contri buting Factor in Many Acci dents Here but our Alert police Are reducing this Hazard daily. Another important Factor in this problem is a psychological one. Take an individual who has a sense of inferiority and who occasionally feels that the world in general is pushing him around. Put this individual behind the wheel of a Large truck on a crowded Highway and watch him. He suddenly has a sense of exultation and All the Power of the truck becomes embodied in him As he proceeds to terrorize the High Way. He twists in and out of traffic As he speeds along and you had better get out of his Way or else. Often he has passengers in his truck and drives recklessly just to show off. Sooner or later he is in an Accident with one or More other vehicles and the really sad ending to the Pic Ture is that he usually takes others to the morgue with him. Corrective measures for our Highway traffic problems Are being taken. Governors Are being installed to limit the Speed of trucks heavier fines and imprisonment for driving unsafe vehicles and. � Fecia Ess or Drunken driving ire being Given and Long for maiming or killing others on the Highway Are being Given. These and other measures will eventually produce the desired results of making our highways Safe. .
