He is hoping that his remarks will be passed along to the highways department. Telling the Union Board of Health on Friday about his letter, he pointed out that level crossings between Ab-botsford and Bridal Falls average one every minutes when a vehicle is travelling at 70 m.p.h. Over much of the distance, the median is not wide enough to allow a car to wait safely between eastbound and westbound lanes, he added. Decleration space allowed for cars making left-hand turns (necessarily from the -fast lane) is not always sufficient, he said. Effective stopping distance from 70 m.p.h.

is 370 feet, he declared. Using high beam at night under ideal conditions, maximum range of vision is 350 feet. With lights dipped, this is reduced to 150 feet. Other points mentioned by Dr. Arneil trailers are definitely unstable at 70 m.p.h.

lamps illuminating some intersections appear to be blinding. The board of health, however, decided not to add its voice to criticisms of the highway already offered by various groups.
