Auto Accidents Cost 1698 Lives In Pennsylvania Traffic accidents took a toll of io98 lives in Pennsylvania during 1946 an increase of 318 over 1945 a report released by Governor iwanin snowed. However, the rural fatality record for 1946 was 983, the best normal year record since 1927. Details of the report submitted to the Governor by the Revenue Department and the State Police showed that while the traffic death rate rose in 1946, there was also an all time record in the number of motor vehicle operators licensed. The report also showed a new high record in gasoline consumption during the year. commenting on the report, Governor Martin pointed out that wnen tne year 1946, the first normal year since the end of the war, is compared to the year 1941, the peak normal operating year before the war when 234a persons were killed, the 1946 record is very good.

"While it is gratifying," the Governor stated, "to note favorable results have come from our efforts to arouse safety consciousness in the minds of the driving public, the total of 1698 fatalities in 1946 indicates that we have iust scratched the surface on safety ana mere is sxui a tremendous task ahead."
