TEN REMINDERS FOR MOTORISTS
Following are ten startling reminders for motorists of their individual responsibility in driving. They were originally broadcast throughout Pennsylvania by the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce: "Good intentions are a treacherous substitute for good brakes. "The horn that is defective may yet prove very effective iii plunging its owner into trouble. "Beneath the skin the man who neglects his steering gear is blood brother to the bridge jumper. "There are many kinds of danger, but only one kind of safety. A dark tail light is no protection against the car thundering along in tho rear.
"Danger wings with lightning speed for him who puts his trust in greed. "All any bad brake asks is an opportunity to show what it cannot do in a critical situation.
"It's a poor time to think of brake inspection when one is within ten feet of eternity.
"Hard luck takes many a wallop that belongs to faulty judgment. " The nearest American approach to the French guillotine is the exposed edge of a broken window or windshield glass."
