HOMELAND MOTORISTS
NEW ACT WORKING WELL. [BY CABLE —PRESS ASSN. —COPYBIGHT.] LONDON, April 9. More than one thousand trained observers, reporting to the Association on the effects of the working of the new Road Traffic Act, declare that the Eastertide motoring showed an appreciable improvement in driving skill and road courtesy. The recognised driving signals were given correctly. The average speed was slightly faster than before the abolition of the limit, but greater care was taken in the towns and villages. The cornering showed a great improvement. Though there were a few cases of passing on bends, only 1 per cent of the drivers were judged guilty of bad driving.
