HOLIDAY TRAFFIC

Safety On the Roads. The Minister of Transport (the Hon R. Semple) sends the following message to road users: “Already there are definite indications that the Christmas and New Year period will be one of greater rail and road.travel than ever before. On the streets and roads there Will be thousands of additional motor-vehicles, and probably a greater number of cyclists a,nd pedestrians. The risk of accidents will be increased, and the need for the utmost care is imperative. “I want to offtsip <one suggestion to help towards making everyone's holiday a safe and happy one. Let everyone—motorist, cyclist, or pedestrian—resolve daily to observe the rules of the road, to anticipate the dangers, and to remember the rights of other users of the road. “Can we not make it a selfimposed and a pleasant duty to exercise constant care on the road? It is my earnest hope, as I am sure it is of everyone, that the New Year will not be ushered in by a single tragic accident and that throughout the holidays our roads will be safe for man, woman and child.”
