   Highway Patrol To

   Step Up Enforcement

 Citing a new high in the number
 of violator citations for a six
 month period, the State Highway
 Patrol today reaffirmed its step-
 ped-up enforcement to hold high-
 way accidents to a minimum.
 In reviewing accident and en-
 forcement records for the first
 six months of 1965, Colonel Anson
 B. Cook, Patrol superintendent
 said traffic arrests made by
 highway patrolmen were up 16%
 over the same period in 1964.
 "For the first six months of
 this year," Colonel Cook said,
 "We have kept our enforcement
 well ahead of the number of
 accidents investigated by the Pa-
 trol which showed a 13% increase
 over the same period in 1964."
 Colonel Cook noted and was
 pleased that the Patrol's efforts
 in enforcement coincided very
 well with the listed accident
 causes.
 For   example, 47%    of the
 accidents investigated by the Pa-
 trol showed the principal cause
 was speed, while 58% of the
 traffic arrests made by Patrol
 officers were for that offense.
 "Speed kills," the Colonel said,
 "and we've got to continue a
 strong effort in this area."
 "Another favorable compari-
 son," the Colonel said, "to show
 we are on the right track in our
 enforcement was the arrests for
 and the accidents caused by fail-
 ure to yield the right-of-way.
 These were," he said, "12.3% and
 14.4% respectively."
 It was also pointed out that
 11.7% of the Patrol's traffic ar-
 rests were for vehicles with de-
 fects such as insufficient lights,
 bad brakes, no horn, etc., while
 5% of the accidents were listed
 as caused by defective vehicles.
 Colonel Cook said the Patrol
 would continue Its efforts to keep
 accidents down and called for
 the cooperation of all motorists
 to help prevent them. He said
 the Patrol would even further
 increase its traffic citations for
 the last half of 1965 and those
 who violate the traffic laws could
 expect to be stopped if they
don't cause an accident first.
