Traffic Safety Report Courages Joliet Improvement in 1951

The Joliet traffic report shows 1951 ended with 47 fewer injury accidents and 30 fewer injured persons than 1950. Six fatalities averaged 62 years old, with four pedestrians among them. Pedestrian injuries at intersections fell, but overall crashes at signals caused many injuries. School children avoided fatalities for 553 days, marking notable progress.

Traffic safety concerns and public responsibility urged

The column urges cooperation with traffic rules and highlights the sorrow caused by injuries and fatal accidents. It argues many people dismiss accidents as merely unfortunate and stresses that traffic safety is a major responsibility for city officials, police, and civic groups.
