Lowell, you do know 'going for a ride' in New Jersey is hazardous, in and of itself. This film is nearly 90 years old, and every scenario that can cause a wreck is still practiced today. Speed and inattention to others are still the top reasons for crashes. The views of that time are fascinating, remembering things and places that no longer exist.
Still.. IF the driving depicted in this film was as common as it appears, drivers appear to have been MUCH WORSE that era. Very cavalier attitudes on the part of drivers.
Late in 1938 for the '39 model year, Buick introduced lighted turn signals as an option, which became available on all GM car makes the following year. Yet, it's still a frequent problem that many people feel that it's an option to use them.
The means for extracting organic blinker fluid from lightning bugs was still in its infancy. In about another 15 years synthetic blinker fluid was in its developmental stage.
For all the comments saying nothing’s changed: In 1937 when this was filmed, 13.19 people died in crashes for every 10,000 vehicles on the road. In 2021, the rate was down to 1.66. Looked at another way, in 1937 there were 14.68 traffic deaths per hundred million miles driven. In 2021 it was down to 1.5. …but nearly all of that is due to safer cars and roads. Drivers haven’t changed! And in the past couple of years the death rate has gone back up a bit due to distracted driving.
Not merely distracted driving but a plain disregard for rules. At our corner stop sign, over half the cars don't even slow down, let alone stop anymore. People go right through at 20 mph and the visibility isn't all that great due to fences and parked cars! That never happened before 2020, and we've lived here for a long time. Also driving on the highways, people in the far left lane regularly go 15-20 mph above the speed limit. (It's everybody in that lane, not just the one or two racers who go 90+ mph.) Ten years ago this was not the case.
US22 was originally the Jersey Turnpike dating back to the very early 1800s…you’re mistaking it for the New Jersey Turnpike(double meaning with the ”New”) which came after
In my neighborhood I saw the results of a practical joke that appears in a couple movies. The trick is to take all the lug nuts off a wheel of a parked car. In the movies the car goes about 10 feet and the wheel falls off. This one drove for miles until he took the long curve near my apartment. The left front wheel came off and rolled at speed into the other lane, center punching a light pick up truck with a young man and GF going out for a weekend evening. The pickup was totaled. The car that suffered the prank careered on until it hit a tree and partly crumpled the engine block into the cab. No one was killed. The young man and his GF were walking around near their wreck. He was thrilled and she was in a slight state of shock. The driver of the car was moaning. Crumpled metal had squeezed his left leg breaking it. He had blood running from his nose. AIR BAGS. Some things have gotten better.
@@dhm7815 Maybe automotive technology has gotten better, but drivers certainly haven't. And that wasn't a "practical joke", that was attempted murder! Police should have treated it as such!
As a professional truck driver driven over the N. J. Turnpike as well as the Pa. Turnpike I don't thing either one has been worked on since either were built with the conditions their always in.
When I got my license in CA at 16 the manual showed the arm hanging down for stop, pointing up for right, and straight out for left. This surprised me. But the difference in time might be the reason. For me it was 1961.
Jersey drivers are statistically the worst in the country. Grew up in Orange County boarding New Jersey. The bad driving habits of Jersey drivers is legendary.
Every single driver was literally a pro racer ! clearly no one wanted to end in second place LOL Lucky for us after million new rules added and 100 years of driving practice-NOTHING CHANGED, absolutely nothing. 😂
People may not have changed but driving is MUCH safer. Cars protect people much better in a crash, handle and brake much better to avoid one, and roads are much more safely designed.
I saw this and some other driving newsreel films from the 30s when I was in Jr High around 1973. Love those "standardized" hand signals. Notice the advice was to always exit a parked car on the passenger or curb side. BENCH SEATS. That died out when bucket seats and fixed console armrests from Europe and Japan came in...60s and 70s.
36'000 auto.fatalities in the US in 1936? .In 2022 there were about.47'000 auto fatalities in the US. We drive many times the miles (kilometers) now as compared to.the.1930's, so road.safety really has improved.
Well houses are the size of a small hotel now and have to be replaced with deflated 2024 dollars so damage costs are way higher numbers now “because climate”
I have no idea why anyone might choose to refer to destruction, injury and deaths caused by hurricanes as "amusing". I can only presume you haven't been at a city whalloped by a hurricane: electricity out, trees destroying homes' rooves, etc etc Ive lived in several places when/ where a severe hurricane left huge trees down on major roads, knocked out electricity to many thousands of ppl in a city for multiple days; cellphone towers damaged/ no service etc etc
9:40 When I lived in New Jersey in the mid-1990s, I rear-ended a car that didn't have its hazard lights on at night in a snow storm while it was stopped in the far-right lane of a major highway, I think near where Routes 1 and 9 merge. The driver was on the shoulder side of the road, fixing a flat tire. He never explained why he didn't drive the car onto the shoulder of the road out of the way of traffic.
At 3:00 the NJ governor Hoffman being interviewed by Lowell Thomas was a panelist of the early days of What's My Line TV show . He was an advocate of highway safety in his short term as governor .
11:52 - Dig the "only three proper signals", particularly the right turn. Their 'stop' looks too much like today's 'left turn, their 'right turn' is just bizarre. Modern signals (same as I was taught in early 1960s) are: Stop hand signal - extend your arm downwards with your palm facing backward. Left turn hand signal - hold your arm straight out of the window. Right turn hand signal - extend your arm upwards at a 90° angle.
Girl. You a bit delusional if you think Texans can drive any safer than this. You must live in a town no bigger than a stoplight because anywhere I’ve been to in Texas, y’all are the most unsafe and speed crazy and have car wrecks multiple times a day that are fatal. And then y’all just speed past the cops and ambulances that are cleaning up the previous accidents and then run into a barrier? Girl please. I’ve seen better driving from a 5 year old.
By 1937, the automobile lobby had already normalized the word “accident” for a traffic crash. It’s still mostly true today, although “crash” is used more and more as deadly road design and land use are recognized for their importance.
The weird thing is, there really was far less traffic in the 1930s overall compared to today, but these scenes were filmed in busy northeastern New Jersey. No car safety features like turn signals or air bags, and no highways were yet built. And from what’s seen in this film, they had not yet developed pedestrian crosswalk markings in the streets.
9:56 - LOL, but the camera car going the wrong way in the oncoming lane is perfectly safe. Amazing how there was a camera everywhere that something crazy was going on. I'm starting to believe about that time traveler with the cell phone as there are probably some with small portable video cameras to get this footage.
The narrator claims New Jersey came up with the innovation of the traffic circle. But the traffic circle has clearly met its expiry date given how often traffic IN the circle has to yield to traffic ENTERING the circle, while other states, even Massachusetts, have adopted roundabouts and roundabout rules for their traffic circles to avoid traffic gridlock within the circles.
As long as drivers know the odds of not getting a ticket for speeding and wreck less driving are in their favor, they'll continue playing those odds. There will have to be huge increase in patrol officers issuing tickets and people getting their license suspended or revoked to have any real impact.
As a pro trucker of 48 years accident free 3.75 million miles on the roads to hell and back...my pet peeves are tailgating and in general non drivers in driving situations.
At 13:24 with the police at the busy-intersection crosswalk: "To find out what would happen if these officers were not on duty, we arranged to have them removed for a few minutes." Lol, omg ... can you say "journalistic malpractice" boys and girls?
Like a few of the comments allude to, it's hard to believe some of these scenes were actually staged. I suppose Ringling brothers must have laid off all their Daredevil actors and they all applied for work at the Transportation Board. This was more exciting to watch than the latest release from the "Fast & Furious" franchise.
Not to downplay the seriousness of this topic, these highway safety videos never cite how many more cars are on the road. They claim how many more fatalities over the previous (let's say) 20 years, but not how many more cars there are in the same period. Or how many more trips per day. Also, they downplayed making cars safer. 30 years after this movie was made, seat belts were still optional equipment, if they were offered at all. Shoulder straps were still not provided. I got a new car last year and it is loaded with safety features that have helped me out where an accident might have occurred. But there will always be jerks and road ragers. The safest car can't prevent them from ruining your day.
Have they legalized marijuana instead of alcohol, they have Slowpoke drivers everywhere that were simply hungry and wanted to get something to eat versus drunken Brave Daredevils. It would have been interesting to do a comparison one state everybody's drinking another state everybody smoking weed and at the end of the let's see which state had more car accidents. I guarantee you the state that legalized alcohol would have twice as many and more that would be fatalities. A stoned driver is a safer driver than a drunk driver. But the cat's out of the bag they legalized alcohol and they can't put it back in the bag.
Cars have changed plenty, but the drivers??? Not so much, really. More people survive now since the cars are built better and safer, with better brakes, tires, and handling, bodies with crumple zones, and passenger restraint systems. Not to mention turn signals.
how does running a red light when no other is looking....how does that injure a person or society? It does one. Making laws based on speculation does not
Well its 2024 and the garbage state is worst then this judge seems to think so,cars amd trucks are smarter ,the people driving them are the dummys,ate can't fix stupid, just with a bench upside the head
Almost 100 years later, and this is still more relevant than ever.
