Decline in 1974 Traffic Deaths Shocks Safety Experts

New York reports a continuing drop in traffic fatalities through 1974 despite ample gas supplies. Officials attribute the decline to lower speeds, changes in driving patterns, better seat belt use, and improved highways. The year saw about 45,400 deaths, nearly 10,000 fewer than 1973, with the fatality rate down about 16 percent. Experts caution the improvement may slow but remain hopeful for further reductions.
