True stories No.2 Without stopping to think

1 Jan 1947

TRUE STORIES (taken from road accident records) No.2 WITHOUT It's a common enough case! This man suddenly saw a friend, stepped off the kerb to cross — right under a car. The man was killed out- right; the car occupants suffered cuts and shock. Kerb Drill (you'll find it in the Highway Code, Paragraph 15) tells you plainly enough: "Stop, look right, left, and right again ... then cross at right angles ..." If only this chap had done this! Over 160,000 human beings were killed or injured on the STOPPING TO THINK .
