N2  - While automobile traffic continues to take a terrible toll, which in spite of every effort of the authorities tends to increase, the shipping and industrial town of Sunderland, with a population approaching 200,000, is able to announce that it has no deaths from automobile traffic. This surprising result caused the minister of transport to inquire of the mayor the reason for the freedom of the town from fatal accidents. His answer shows that the reason can be given in one word—education. For a considerable time the police have given particular attention to traffic problems and in a tactful way have exercised a control that has had the effect of reducing unnecessary fast driving. Cautions, written and verbal, have been issued when necessary and only in serious cases, now reduced to a minimum, have proceedings against drivers been taken.    <p>Language: en</p>
