THE HOPKINS COUNTY ECHO, Sulphur Springs, Texas._Friday, July 27, 1962.
Patrol Plans
Stronger Fight
Against Deaths
Captain Glen Warner, com-
, manding the Highway Patrol
[in this area, announced today
la stepped-up enforcement pro-
[gram in an attempt to halt
Ithe.....Steadily.. iEWeasing Jtum-
Iber of traffic deaths in the
|£ast Texas area.
^Analysis of our rural acci-
[dent reports for the first six
months this year show (fusv
cessive speed as a causative
factor in 50 per cent of our
fatal accidents, with driving
vhile intoxicated second at 25
er cent and wrong side of the
oad third at four per cent.
“Most drivers h a v e a ten-
dency to blame the other fel-
low for the accident problem.
)ur records show that they
hre laboring under a fal.se be-
lief. In 63 per cent of the fatal
Occidents that have occurred in
this area this year only one car
eras involved. The driver either
ran off the road, turned over
[u)d killed himself, or he ran
^something.besides another
otor vehicle," the captain
id.
“I have issued orders to all
itrolmen in East Texas to in-
crease their efforts to appre-
hend traffic law violators.
The Highway Patrol is charged
with the responsibility of pro-
tecting the lives and property
of the people of Texas. The
only immediate solution to an
increasing traffic death rate is
an increased enforcement pro-
gram. Since we have had more 1
people killed in traffic acci-1
dents the first six months of j
this "year, as compared to the |
same period last year, we have
no alternative other than to in-
crease arrests for traffic vio-j
lations if we are to carry out
our responsibilities.
“I appeal to all of the citi-}
zens of this area to join us in
a concerted effort to conserve
the. MfBSf pterion* OVfMftmiiTy
in America today, human' lives.
I know that with the support
and cooperation, of the people
in this area, the last half of
1962 can be made into one of
the safest places in Texas in
which to live.”
