I've written about America's infrastructure before. Domino's wants to help, because it's affecting their pizza.

"Have you ever hit a pothole and instantly cringed? We know that feeling is heightened when you're bringing home a carryout order from your local Domino's store. We don't want to lose any great-tasting pizza to a pothole, ruining a wonderful meal," said Russell Weiner, president of Domino's USA.  "Domino's cares too much about its customers and pizza to let that happen."

Following the investigation of two 2016 multi fatality crashes involving school buses, the National Transportation Safety Board has recommended that all new buses be equipped with lap and shoulder seat belts. The organization is also calling for better driver oversight.

Enough is Enough

"I feel like we've always tiptoed around this issue of seat belt usage and lap [and] shoulder belts in school buses," said NTSB Board Chairman Robert L. Sumwalt. "The last recommendation we made on this was in 2013 coming out of a crash in Chesterfield, New Jersey, that occurred in February of 2012. And it was a...

Today over 50 law enforcement officers from sheriff's offices, police departments, and the Michigan State Police will begin Operation Ghost Rider. This operation uses unmarked police vehicles to observe distracted drivers, then radio marked vehicles to start a traffic stop.

"Distracted drivers put themselves and everyone else on the road in extreme danger. That text, phone call, or any other behavior taking your focus off your driving, can and should wait," said Col. Kriste Kibbey Etue, director of the Michigan State Police. "We hope this traffic enforcement initiative will help change dangerous...

A recent house panel vote advanced legislation that would make it against the law to hold a cell phone while driving in the state of Minnesota. The vote came after four years of unsuccessful attempts with similar bills.

If passed, Minnesota would become the 17th state (with the District of Columbia), to enact this measure. Currently Minnesota law allows drivers to hold a phone in their hands while driving, if they are speaking on the phone.

Closing Loopholes

Texting and driving is illegal in the state. but the general nature of the law makes it difficult to enforce. It's a difficulty for officers...

Accidents with industrial heavy duty commercial vehicles are dangerous and expensive. The last count by the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), over 4,600 fatal work injuries were recorded in the United States.

Have you ever been stuck at a red light with no traffic? A new law in Utah would allow vehicles to go through a red-light if the driver stops first, and safety looks in all directions. House Bill 416 was suggested to Representative Ken Ivory by a constituent.

Red Light Law

“He was on his way to the airport, stuck at a red light- we’ve all been there-,” said Rep. Ivory as he told the constituent’s story.  “The red light was terminal; one after another after another and nobody is here, nobody is here.  He went through the red light. There was a police officer in a parking lot nearby. Got a ticket...

I’ve written about my own personal experience with the dangers of drowsy driving before. It is a dangerous epidemic that cannot be ignored. After analyzing dashboard videos from 700 accidents, the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found that 9.5% of all crashes involved drowsy driving, based on the portion of time the operators' eyes were closed in the minutes before a crash. This statistic grows to nearly 11% in severe crashes.

My parents bought a new (to them) car last November. My mom was very pumped about the included backup and side camera.

"It has grid lines when you back up! The cameras change when I use my turn signal!" She happily exclaimed after she brought it home. When I came back to Kansas for Christmas, she proudly showed me how everything worked.

Many new vehicles now come standard with backup and/or side cameras. It makes sense. Laws are changing, and the new generation are learning to drive with cameras. The question remains, how can I make my parents even safer? After hearing all about my mom's backup...
