DEAF MUTES SAFEST DRIVERS
State figures show that motorists unable to speak or hear have the best safety records in Pennsylvania. William J. Hamilton, secretary of revenue, reported that only one minor collision has marred the two-year record of the COO deaf mutes licensed to drive. He said the deaf mute “ is far more alert than the normal motorist, is more self-pos-sessed. has better control of his vehicle, and has a wider knowledge of traffic rules and regulations.”—The ‘ New York Times.’
