Sacramento reports the California Highway Patrol suspects exhaust fumes may contribute to fatal single car crashes. Preliminary findings show 16 percent of 175 urban traffic victims had trace carbon monoxide, with cases from Merced County in 1962 and incidents in Bakersfield and the Sierra. Federal grants fund deeper study, with results expected in about 18 months.
