As the highway safety or- ganizations and law enforcement agencies point out, the courtesy, care, and commor sfense you show count more than anything else. You can drive any car safely —or fooHshly. - The second thing is the Cfix itself. All cars are safer today. That’s | wwn by the number of accidents in reu^on to the number of miles passenger cars are driven. The figure’s been going down steadily and sharpl^. Chevrolet engineers and designers have always made your safety a major consid- eration, introducing many such features as the all-steel top, safety plate glass all around, and windshield-wide defrosters into the low-price field. And this ’56 Chev- rolet is the safest one ever built. Its lively new power means safer pass- ing. Its special Ball-Race steering— the _^i^e brakes with Anti-Dive control— Unisteel construction and safety door latches of its Fisher Body— the nailed-to- the-road stability that comes from outrig- ger rear springs, an advance4.suspension system and better balance— the sweeping panoramic windshield —all these things add to your safety. Seat belts with or vithoht shoulder harness? Instrument panel padding? Of course, they’re available at extra cost on yoiu" new Chevrolet. But the best protec- tion of all is to keep out of accidents in the first place. And that depends mostly on you and the built-in safety of your car. As your Chevrolet dealer, we’ll be glad to show you the many safety features of the ’56 Chevrolet. Phone 1271 Daw son C h e v r o le t C o m psm y Margar^ville, N. Y.
