Deadly Weekends.
"If we cafi deal with the weekend pattern of accidents then we can avoid 60 per cent. of the road tragedies in this country," said the Commissioner of Transport (Mr H. B. Smith) to delegates to the New Zealand Traffic Institute. "Is it because we have not enough patrols at the weekends,- or is it drink, or is it that the inexperienced driver is then out in greatest numbers? Those are questions for urgent answer by everyone concerned with traffic and traffic control."
