The bombing was the worst terrorist attack in Italian history.

An overwhelming number of accidents occurred at intersections, especially signalized intersections such as 23rd Street and Lonsdale Avenue, and Third Street and Lonsdale.

“We've done everything possible from an engineering viewpoint,” Scott said, about the 23rd Street crossing.

GOOD JOB

And with regard to the accident site investigated at the inquest, Scott maintains that the accident would have happened no matter what engineering had done to make the road safer.

“There’s no way we can engineer a road for drunks,” he said.

And Mayor Jack Loucks said “you can’t put a four way stop at that in- tersection.”

Scott thinks that the engineering department has Been doing a good job of monitoring the traffic in the City.

“It’s an = interesting challenge,” he says, in reference to the task of controlling traffic accidents.

But Scott says in effect that engineering cannot prevent accidents.

“People always look to hard solutions to people problems.”

“The solution of traffic problems lies with all people regarding the rules that are there for their protection.”

Scott referred to an engineering report from last year which showed that the three main causes of traffic accidents in the City were (in order); undue care and attention, not yielding right of ways, and following too close.

That report recom- mended; “that the focus of safety campaigns be directed to the stricter observance of existing laws;” and “that more emphasis on current police training be directed to how to enforce laws on minor moving traffic in- fractions more effectively.”

“The RCMP deserves support in what is not a popular job,” Scott said.

“Yd like to see a larger proportion of the police budget spent on traffic enforcement.”

Scott added that he would like to see courts crack down on “moving violations” in the motor vehicle act.

But most of all, Scott says people's attitudes about
