Campaign to curb speed advertising gains state support

The Ohio State Automobile Association safety committee urged A A and the Nations Automotive Chamber to stop boasting that cars will exceed speed limits. Officials warn such ads raise reckless driving risk and harm highway safety while announcing a statewide safety push in schools and a 6,000 strong traffic patrol plan. The Camden bridge tolls totaled 2.182 million from 7,847,220 vehicles, funding maintenance and turning a 100,000 profit. Washington sales laws prohibit speed claims in auto ads to curb risky driving.
