Highway Comment

~ Last week — shortly after a fatal accident near Island
View Road — the Mayor and an Alderman from the
municipality of Central Saanich. criticized. the
_ Provincial Department of Highways and said that
repeated requests had been made for traffic control
lights at the. Island View Patricia Bay Highway in-

tersection.

‘An immediate reply on behalf of the Government was

forthcoming from our MLA,

Though immediate, the reply offered little support for
any expecting rationality and intelligence from this!
Peninsula politician.

Without any apparent consideration of the practical
aspects of what:is proving to be an unsafe stretch of
freeway, Tisdalle’s comment consisted of a criticism of
Central Saanich representatives for ‘‘playing politics”
and the offering that the victims are always to blame.
~The _ politics remark 1 is too ridiculous to be worthy of

comment.
His statement that accidents are solely the fault of the
- participants is, however, more insidious.
~~ Possibly it- could make some kind of warped sense.
ae ‘After all, if people didn’ t drive cars they wouldn’ t have

accidents.

- The fact ‘remains; however, that they do drive cars.
As well, most accidents. do have driver failure as a

a “contributing factor.-

. To clear Up : a a misunderstanding that s seems to recur
_ with regularity — it should be explained again that |.
letters to the Editor represent only the opinion of the
--writer, Their philosophies are not necessarily those of
the newspaper that publishes them.

-But:to: suggest, that this isa main reason n for highway
accidents i is indicative of an utter lack of understanding.
Highway design has. been amply proven as an aid to
safe driving. Such things as traffic lights, painted centre
lines, properly engineered corners and median strips
eliminate the danger of untold accidents that. Tight
occur were they not there. = |
- Perhaps Mr. Tisdalle is: simply. “playing politics”. If
not, he Should realize that he lacks the: binty to com-

me of the difficulties they face, this i is a
suggestion that should be dropped immediately.”
Assurances. by. police spokesmen that such identity

records would not. become part of: any general law en-

purpose are simply_ not: good enough: « 7 |
- It would be a drastic encroachment on our f reedom. as
individuals — — and no amount of assurance is going to}
“make it. otherwise, As has been proven time and again
oy the misuse of such data becomes almost inevitable...
While: safeguards might be instituted in the beginning |

"justified no guarantee can ever be given that other men
