Texans
can live
46 Texans can live through this Fourth of July
weekend. They should live. They deserve to be
alive Monday after a relaxing holiday. But, ac-
cording to estimates based on previous holidays
in Texas, 46 Texans will die.
The Governor's Office and the Texas Department
of Public Safety have urged motorists to DRIVE
FRIENDLY. This means obeying state and local
traffic laws, planning your travel so you won't
have to rush, avoiding driving and drinking. In
other words, maintain a friendly driving attitude
toward the other families who are also enjoying
this holiday.
Most of the six million Texas drivers will be on
the road at some time this holiday. If every driver
makes an effort, 46 Texans can live. This week-
end DRIVE FRIENDLY.

Committee on Traffic Safety
