Time Change Leads To Accidents

The Toronto Star reports police in that city last monday kicked off their week-long "Smart Ped - Be Bright At Night" program in order to boost pedestrian and automobile safety.

Sgt. Allan Finlay explains that pedestrians and drivers haven't adjusted to the dark commute home.
