ROAD SENSE
INSTRUCTION FOR CHILDREN
AUCKLAND SCHEME A SUCCESS
(Per Press Association — Copyright.)
AUCKLAND, December 14
Striking evidence of the success of the City Council’s efforts to educate children in ‘‘road sense,” is contained in the report of the chief traffic inspector to-day. In 1929 when the scheme started, 412 were the victims of road accidents. This year to date, the total is 61, the smallest on record. T.hi s year 33 schools were visited, and instruction given to 14,000 children. Most of this year’s accidents are due to boys cycling, and failing to give signal when turning to the right at street intersections. Most of the visits of instruction to sichools are made in March, when there are new pupils, and ■in November, before the long school holidays.
