Twilight Hours Most Dangerous for Driving An excellent safety precaution for all motorists is, "Slow down at twilight." In spite of constant warnings, night-time deaths resulting from traffic cidents continue to happen more often than daytime deaths. Motorists, bicycle riders, and trians should be especially from twilight on, because of lower visibility and because of the fatigue factor which enters in later in the day. Bright lights are frequently the cause of traffic accidentsthat is why the dim lights are part of the equipment of every car. They throw the light directly in front of the vehicle and cause less glare or blindness to other drivers. They should also be used when a car is following at a short distance behind another vehicle, so the driver of the car ahead will not be blind- ed.

Dim your lights- this is a courtesy not to be neglected. The motorist who "zooms" around a vehicle on the highway when visibility is low, and takes curves at a high rate of speed, often loses control of his car and an accident occurs. While this type of accident is usually written up as "traveling at a high rate of speed and losing control of his car," it is definitely carelessness and poor judgment. Some motorists insist that they can see just as well at night as they do in the daytime, but this is questionable. Certain animals have eyes which see as well at night.

The best known of these is the cat. Although a cat's eyes are different in make-up than a human's, the fact that they cannot judge distance as accurately in the dark is indicated by the larger number killed at night. Arguments for night travel sometimes outweigh those against it because of the reduced number of vehicles on the highways. When driving at night, keep glancing well in front of your headlight beams, watching for dark objects on the road. Then if poor visibility forces you to look low in your path, your normal high-aim steering habit automatically pulls your speed down to match your down-cast vision.

Don't stop on the highway at night unless it is absolutely necessary. If you must stop, park as far off on the shoulder as possible. A cardinal rule for safe driving is to slow down at twilight and through the hours of darkness. By SO doing, you may avert a serious accident and save a life.
