REDUCING TRAFFIC NOISE
An interesting experiment was recently carried out in Germany in minimising traffic noise. The police authorities of Wiesbaden were of opinion that police penalties alone could not check the evil, so a hoater-free week was held, the results of which are regarded by experts as being a complete success. The originator of the experiment, in a talk from the Frankfort wireless station on the results obtained, said that the non-use of the hooter naturally imposed great self-rstraint on motor drivers, but the Wiesbaden experiment had shown that one could quickly become accustomed to carefui driving and also that other traffic and the public could soon acquire a higher traffic discipline. He went on to say that preparations for a hooterless week in the whole of Germany were being made.
