Safety on the Road “The director’s are wholeheartedly in sympathy with measures designed to bring about a greater degree of safety on the road,” states the annual report of the North island Motor Union Insurance Company. “The accidentprevention activities conducted last Christinas bf the Minister of Transport and this officers were of great value and productive of a considerable reduction in the number of accidents occurring during the holiday period. A fact which is not always appreciated as it deserves to be is that the enormous sums paid out by motor insurance companies as “third party” compensation, are provided by the motorists themselves. It is a matter for regret that up to the present it has not been possible for the authorities to carry out safety-first activities on an adequate scale all the year round, but it is to be hoped that this will be achieved in time. The full support of the company will be given to safety-first proposals which are national in character, and which have the approval of organised motoring.”
