Connecticut DMV Cracks Down on Unsafe Commercial Trucks
2012-08-29
Unsafe commercial vehicles put everyone on the road at risk. Due to their sheer size, a collision with an 18-wheeler or other large truck can cause significantly worse injuries than a comparable collision between two passenger vehicles.
Truck driver negligence -- like speeding, drowsiness or distraction -- plays a big role in commercial vehicle accidents. However, in many cases, truck crashes can be tied to violations of state and federal safety regulations.
Luckily, both the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration and the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles ...

The Problem of Negative Equity in California Homes
2012-08-29
While recent news of increased home sales is an encouraging sign for the housing market, the scars from the 2008 housing crisis are still evident. The increase in foreclosure activity in 2012 suggests that a number of troubled home loans are still in the market, and the wave of underwater mortgages (i.e. properties with negative equity) that have not been included in the foreclosure process threatens the market's stability.
According to a recent report by USNews.com, home loans currently subject to foreclosure carry nearly $45 billion in negative equity. However, that ...
What to Expect with Field Sobriety Tests
2012-08-29
Commercials for drunk driving enforcement are peppering the airways as Labor Day approaches. Indeed, law enforcement agencies will be actively looking for signs of drunk driving, but they primarily rely upon field sobriety tests to justify their suspicions that a driver may be driving under the influence.

They include the walk-and-turn, the one legged stand, and the horizontal gaze nystagmus test.

"No Refusal" in Effect in Tennessee
2012-08-29
Under a new law implemented this summer, Tennessee joins the growing number of states that allow law enforcement to implement "no refusal" protocols. "No refusal" refers to procedures that prevent drivers from avoiding chemical tests when suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI).

2012-08-29
New York residents are feeling the heat this summer with record-breaking high temperatures.

The increased risks to the health of outdoor workers is why health and safety advocates are encouraging ...
New Breath Test Uses Cloud to Store Data
2012-08-29
While a new breath test product has made following up with convicted DWI offenders easier and more efficient for parole officers, breath tests are rife with issues and produce false positives that may wrongly implicate drivers in a driving while intoxicated charge.
