ROAD SAFETY

SrIt.—The problem of road accidents is intensified at Christmas and a great responsibility rests upon every road-user. Relatively small amounts of alcohol cause a deterioration in driving efficiency and increase appreciably the likelihood of accidents. Drink may make a person feel he is driving better, but he will, in fact, be driving less safely. Pedestrians under the influence of drink may also cause accidents. Make 'None for the Road' your Highway Code.
