Trucks Must Carry
Recording Speed
ometers in Alaska
ANCHORAGE, (JP) — Installa- ]
tion of recording speedometers |
will be inquired in the future on
all trucks operating on Alaska
highways, Frank Metcalf, Terri
torial engineer, said today.
In answer to a query by Her
man Ross, Anchorage attorney, |
Metcalf said the board of road ,
commissioners is consi d e r i n g :
problems brought about by the
operation of trucks on Territorial1
roads.
Ross had written Metcalf urging
a series of (^gistration stations be
established on highways.
The attorney declared his own
car had been involved in a colli
sion which he blamed on the lack
of proper traffic controls.
“We have contacted several
trucking firms and asked their
cooperation to the extent of in
stalling the recording speedome
ters in through freight trucks.”
Metcalf replied the meters will
be one of the requirements of the
revisd traffic code. He declared
the matter of “fast reckless driv
ing all over the Territory is re
ceiving our concentrated consid
eration.”
{“It was so soon I was done for
1 wonder why I was begun for.”
