New Safety Reflector System For Highways Is Advocated For State A new safety reflector system tried out in Michigan that lines roadsides with a "fence of light" is being considered by California highway engineers. A trial installation has been suggested to State Highway Engineer C. H. Purcell in view of the enthusiastic recommendations of leading highway authorities who inspected the eastern set-up. Marking the outer edge of the shoulder of the highway, lines of light are created by prismatic reflectors set at 100-foot intervals, it was explained by D. C. Rhodes, signposting engineer of the Automobile Club of Southern California. The reflectors, three on a standard, are a patented plastic known as "lucite," Clear, flexible and non-shattering, they cast a powerful light visible for about a mile on straight roads. In almost continuous band of light, any object which comes between the units and an automobile driver, whether a pedestrian or another vehicle, becomes immediately noticeable. Hills and curves are unmistakably outlined, and because the reflectors operate front and back the light lines extend along both sides of a highway. Reflectors are set on standards about eight feet from the roadway and about three feet above the pavement edge. Comparatively low cost of installation, reported to be about $350 per mile with small maintenance expense, is considered a notable feature. After inspecting the system installed last month over 62 miles between Detroit and Lansing, Michigan, Thomas H. MacDonald, No Fatal Mishaps in 18 State Cities Compilation of accident statistics for the first quarter of 1938 shows 18 cities passed through January, February and March without a single fatality, the department of motor vehicles announced this week. At the same time it was announced that three communities—Fortuna, Montague and Davie—did not have a single accident during that period and that Lincoln reported only one accident. The 12 cities without a fatality were Sebastopol, Palo Alto, Alameda, Fortuna, Orange, Coalinga, Montague, Lincoln, Beverly Hills, San Bruno, Davis, El Cerrito, Redwood City, Santa Monica, La Mesa, Los Gatos, La Verne and Santa Clara.
