Iowa Highways See Death Toll Rise Despite Safety Campaigns
Des Moines reports 654 highway deaths by Thursday, 2 more than last year at this time, with total tolls later in the year cited as progress. Safety Commissioner Cust Pesch notes decreased primary highway deaths due to enforcement, while secondary roads and urban areas rise. The year marks revisions to the point system, allowing earlier license suspensions, a daylight headlight campaign, seat belt push, stricter DUI penalties, and rural intersection programs. A 1962 town legislature failure to provide new tools drew disappointment. a Sioux City ruling on city versus state speed violations prompted an appeal.
