Engineers Seek Law to Stop Autos at Rail Crossings
Des Moines March 3 1917 engineers testified before joint railway committees urging a law forcing automobiles to stop or be under full control when approaching rail crossings to allow engineers to prevent wrecks. One engineer said his engine had killed five people and pleaded the plea. Representative Finley objected saying a stopping law would relieve railways of responsibility and pushed a bill to have railroads cover grade crossing costs. The discussion centers on bill H F 46 by Wilson to place warnings 200 feet from crossings and require autos to stop before tracks.
