Let’ s Try for a Record

FTER a Ye of more than 400 days the spectre of
* ” a traffic fatality has cast a shadow over this
ity of 10,000.” Monday night, in the semi-darkness
‘that features nearly all of our intersections but two,
# man suffered injuries sufficient to snuff out his
‘life. Monday afternoon a little boy was in collision
ov ith a car. Last week before 9 a.m. on a school day
4 little girl was in collision with a car. Always the
threat of sudden death hangs over the city as vehicles
“move through our streets and pedestrians cross the
“‘yoads to reach their destinations. At that, for a city
‘of this size, with the high per capita car ownership,

smaybe Prince Rupert has been lucky.

s. This week’s traffic fatality occurred in spite of |
‘appeals by the National Safety Council, the B.C.

Safety council, the RCMP and The Daily News for
anotorists to drive carefully, pedestrians to watch
what they are doing and for parents to train their
thildr en in traffic safety. Time and time again, un-
‘til readers have become angered at us for making the
Same pleas for safety, we have stressed the various
stacets of trying to stay alive in today’s hustle and
‘bustle of mounting traffic and a speeded tempo of
life,

= Yet, we are not going tosay “We told you so.”
anstead we hope that some of our safety editorials,

spur support of Safe Driving Week, our pre-holiday
‘messages to drive and walk with caution have sunk
siome, to the extent that had we not written them the
draffic toll in this city might be worse.

«The city of Trail, B.C. with a more compact busi-
wess section than Prince Rupert and just as many if

mot more cars and trucks, has now gone more than

4,000 days without a fatal traffic mishap. It has re-
ifeived a Safety Council award for its enviable record.
Ret us in Prince Rupert try for a record, a similar,

etter mark. Let us show ourselves, the province and
the whole of Canada for that matter, that our
advivers , our pedéstrians and our children can be just
28S, sensible, just as careful and just as long-lived as
“anywher e else.
= Tt takes time and it takes self control and train-
ang.

Drivers must be more alert, less hurried and more
Zourteous. Pedestrians themselves must also be alert,
they must watch what they are doing ancl they must
avait that extra second or two to make sure they are
an the clear. Above all they must train their children
“not to dash out from behind parked cars, to traverse
crosswalks properly, to give drivers a chance. That’s
all there is to it. There’s nothing more we can say.
