Safety Facts
More than 50 per cent of all highway deaths in 1965 occured during the weekend from Friday through Sunday, according to The Travelers Insurance Companies. The most dangerous day? Saturday. Based on Travelers' report, 21.9 per cent of all fatal highway accidents occured on Saturday. In addition, 15.4 per cent of all traffic deaths occured on Friday and 18.7 per cent on Sunday.

The total number of persons killed in 1965 stood at 48,500 by year's end. More than 4,000,000 men, women and children were injured. The biggest percentage of those injured in auto accidents also occured during the weekend. The most dangerous hours on the highways, according to Travelers, are those between 5 and 8 p.m. During that time, nearly 20 per cent of all fatal accidents occured. This also holds true of the number of injured, says Travelers. Last year more than 19 per cent of all highway mishaps causing injuring occured during this same 3-hour period.
