“Automobiles are not ferocious.... it is man who is to be feared,” as Robbins B. Stoeckel remarked, enumerates a simple, yet fundamental concept- a vehicle in itself is a relatively safe, that is, until you put a person behind the controls. Further adding to the danger is the ever prevalent risk of a fellow driver being impaired by the usage of alcohol; perhaps the only thing that may make such a situation even more difficult and dangerous is one who is under the legal alcohol drinking age. Fewer situations are more life threatening than when an underage driver has been illegally consuming alcohol, yet persists in the belief that he or she retains the ability to drive safely. Thoughts along this line are foolish at best and deadly at

Drivers would have a switch that would allow them to turn off their back taillights all together to escape being seen. In some cars they would even have a switch that allowed them to have high beams for taillights to temporarily blind the drivers of the police cars. They couldn’t afford to be caught with several gallons of whiskey on them. If need be the drivers would exit the vehicle and leave the car and the alcohol to avoid being caught and arrested (Liquor Cars and Liquor Haulers).

There are warning signs on every convoy if anyone gets closer more than 50 meters to the trucks they will be shot down. But the BMW still moves closer. That is when the narrator describes himself in an impossible situation "You either engage the BMW or let it drive right into the middle of the convoy" (Kovite 203). When the BMW moves close to the convoy the narrator describes that BMW could be filled with explosions and it could blow up any second near the convoys, that is when the narrator has to make an impossible decision to shoot at the BMW or

The constant training of jumping out, blowing up, and competition bombards soldiers with high level of adrenaline which soldiers craves for every moment including driving. During in the morning hours between 530am and 630am comes trafficc jams since army work schedule for work starts at 630am for physical exercise. It is very highly prudent to avoid being near a road during this time due to the high likelihood of being involve of car accident. Accidents happens every day because soldier knows how to push the safety limits due to the mentality of invisibility. Motorist that are stranded for any reason automatically gets help from soldiers willing to assist at a very short notice. There are various soldiers that posesvast knowledge in the inner working of anything machine that being stranded pose a problem keeping them

Thesis statement: This case of the Shermans v. Church of the Divine Light. According the case, the Shermans claim that their minor child has been the victim of illegal detention and intentional infliction of emotional distress and among other torts. They seek to be compensated for all the damages that such detention have brought to their minor child as well as the medical and other expenses they incurred in getting him away from the church and “bringing him” from their intentional “brainwashing” of their minor child.

In a real traffic situation, 15 subjects were tested when performing different tasks using a Driver Information System (DIS).There are 8 various classes in driving. The results can be seen in the above figure 2.3.

While sitting stationary at the red light on Ridge Road (facing West), I observed a white Dodge pickup truck with a non-functioning tag light directly in front of my patrol vehicle. I briefly turned my patrol vehicle's front headlights out and again confirmed that the vehicle's tag lights were out. Furthermore, I could observe that the driver was unbelted with the belt buckle dangling. I had a clear, unobstructed view directly through the back, untinted window on the vehicle. My headlights assisted my observation along with the height of the vehicle (truck).

Red light running is a serious issue in the United States. According to T. Walden and B. Bochner (2011), it is estimated these violations result in over 100,000 accidents and 1,000 fatalities each year. The economic impact is assessed to be over $14 billion dollars annually (“Effectiveness of Red Light Cameras-Texas Statewide Evaluation,” p. 30). Typical costs include items such as property damage, medical expenses, response expenditures, etc. The monetary costs are significant, but the loss of life is incalculable. N. Elminity and E. Radwan (2008) state that drivers who run red lights are the primary cause of high-speed angular collisions at intersections (“Issues Related to Red-Light Camera Enforcement Systems,” p. 32). RLCs are an attempt to increase safety and reduce risk at problematic intersections in order to mitigate these costs.

Red-light-running camera enforcement is a relatively new technology. The cameras where implemented for use in the United States in the 1990s. The technology is available to help reduce a substantial problem that causes injuries and fatalities after a person enters a signalized intersection when displayed a red light in their traveled direction. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has defined the term "red-light-running" in Issue Brief 6 as "the act of entering, and proceeding through, a signalized intersection after the traffic signal has turned red." (Federal Highway Administration [FHWA], 2009 (6), p1) While the FHWA is a proponent of this technology, controversy has been driven by claims from opponents who cite privacy issues, maintenance concerns, and claims that the intervals for yellow/amber signals have been shortened for the sole purpose of generating funds for the states and municipalities that use the technology. Looking back at the history of the traffic signals, authorities that control them and some recent studies may allow for a better understanding of the cameras and their use today.

In the article entitled, “Dutch Town Aims Safety Measures at the Feet of ‘Smartphone Zombies’’’ Tom Everett explains how distracted walkers are becoming a problem. First, Everett discusses how many people are not being aware of their surroundings when they are on their smartphones. Everett thinks a unaware walker might even step into oncoming traffic. Then, officials in Bodegraven-Reeuwijk decide to fix this problem with some LED lights. The town put light lines in a handful of intersections around their town. These light lines are synced to the traffic light, so the light lines turn whatever color the traffic light is. So when walkers are looking down at their phone, they can see the traffic light. Although, not everyone agrees with this

In today’s world, many drivers have become complacent in the fact that the vehicle in which they are operating can be a deadly weapon. A two-ton hunk of metal flying down the freeway at speeds excess of seventy miles an hour carries much potential for catastrophe.

On November 15, 2015 at approximately 0052 hrs., I was parked at O'Reilly Auto Parts, 200 S. Main St., Brookfield, MO 64628. While sitting at O'Reilly Auto Parts, I observed a black in color truck traveling southbound on S. Main St. I noticed the truck had its running lights running but failed to display lighted lamps on a motor vehicle. I activated my red and blue emergency lights noticing the driver crossing the white center line two times before the truck came to a complete stop.

The author’s illustration shows confidence in his knowledge of crazy drivers. I empathies with Dave Barry (2014) as I read, “I have ridden in a taxi in the Argentinean city of Mar del Plata (literally, ``Cover your eyes''), where (a) nobody ever drives slower than 65 miles per hour, including inside parking garages, and (b) at night, many motorists drive with their headlights off, because-a taxi driver told me this, and he was absolutely serious-this
