article, and there will be nothing left with
which to make a comparison. However, a
search of the debris around a garage, ash
heap or even a garbage can may furnish the
evidence required. If the repair is made
in a garage, an effort should be made to
secure the broken pieces taken from the
offending vehicle. This may prove difficult
to do, but the effort is worth making.

A technique which has been used with
a great deal of success in identifying frag

ments of moulded headlight lenses may be of
interest. It will be recalled that moulded or
patent headlight lenses have a very definite
pattern which varies with the maker. This
pattern is principally to diffuse the beam of
light and reduce glare. Some lenses have
the pattern on the inside of the lens, while
others have it on the outside. These patterns
or corrugations are often useful in matching
fragments from scene and vehicle. If the
vehicle still has some pieces of glass in the
broken headlight, these are carefully re-
moved, and each piece marked with a dot
of blue paint. The pieces of glass found
at the scene of the accident are then all
marked with a dot of red paint. The re-
maining lens in the vehicle, provided only
one was broken, and that it is of the same
pattern as the broken one, is then removed.
A plaster cast is made of the corrugated
side of the lens, which should have been
coated with a slight film of oil so that the
glass will separate easily. If both headlight
