Determination - определение

In 1911 in Wayne County (округ), Michigan, an automobile driver observed a collision on a narrow bridge between a horse and a buggy (повозка), and an automobile going into opposite directions. Each of the drivers was sure that he was on his own side of the road. The observer was Edward Hines, the governor of the county. Mr. Hines immediately decided that it must be possible for drivers to determine with certainty where their side of the road was. He ordered a white line painted (рисовать) on the centre of every bridge and every curve (поворот) within his county.

Subsequently he had his idea extended (распространять) to all the highways of the county. The centre line and various pavement markings have unquestionably saved many lives. They are now one of the most effective means of controlling traffic.
