in this period, the eee of B.C. has been blessed with a substhn-
tial downward trend in motor vehicle accidents for the first five
months of 1954, compared with the same period in 1953,

likes to think the decrease for
the first five months ati least, is
due to a greater awareness on the
part of the drivers in the’ Pro-
vince of their responsibility while
on the road. Then too, there is
the psychological effect caused by
a greater degree of police enforce-
ment during the past year by the
RCMP and various municipal
police ‘forces.

Perhaps a further item is the
prognam of the Motor Vehicle
Branch in dealing with the driv-
ing. licences of drivers with re-
cords of violations and accidents.
In addition to a large number of
suspensions given by the:courts,
the Branch has lifted the driving
privilege of 439 persons for poor
records, and warned 1,331 that a
continuance of their driving hab-
its will give good reason for a
suspension action.
