I grew up in a house that stood about 1,500 feet from the Burlington Northern rail line. And when those trains would sound that crazy horn at wee hours of night it would scare the bejeezus out of me! Heck, I think because of that, I wet the bed until I was in middle school.…

You may think your newer vehicle with life-saving safety features can withstand a hit, even from a large truck. It’s true that most of the larger SUV’s weigh somewhere between 4,200 and 5,400 lbs. But large trucks, especially those with a truck-tractor and trailer combination can weigh up to 80,000 lbs. These trucks require more…
Installing a child’s car seat properly is imperative for your child’s safety. Of course, a new car seat will come with a manual. But what about your caregiver who may transfer it into their car? Or what if you purchase a used car seat with no manual? We have new sources available to us now…

I’ve written several blogs over the years about my dislike for street light cameras. And, I am happy to say that as of June, Red Traffic Light Cameras are banned in Texas. The Good and Evil of Street Light Cameras I say good riddance to red camera light tickets! As my niece would say, they…
My mother had to take a driving test on her 80th birthday (both written and in her car). I’m curious if I would easily pass a driving test at this point. When I moved to California in the early 1990’s, I flunked the written driving test twice. Of course I didn’t even crack the booklet…
Every summer we hear of this horrific mistake when we turn on the news. And, a mistake or human error is exactly what this is. We are only human and we all make mistakes. Of course this particular one is definitely a whopper. But it’s not as if the parent or guardian isn’t already remorseful,…
I often have students in my class inquire about whether the police will come if called regarding a car accident and what to do when involved in one.
