deaths stood at only seven, or two above 1973’s comparable score and motorcycle deaths were even at 28. Deaths of servicemen were up from 18 to 19.

Tentative national statistics released by the National Safety Council for the first four months of 1974 give 12,480 deaths as against 16,500 for the same period of 1973.
