The Huffington Post recently reported on the death of a Clemmons, North Carolina woman who was involved in an accident. The 32-year old was driving to work one morning on a busy interstate when her car crossed the center of the highway, crashed into an oncoming recycling truck and caught on fire. Fortunately, the truck driver was unharmed. Investigators soon learned that the woman was engaging in a new trend: taking selfies while driving. She took several photos of herself and posted them to a popular social media site while she was on the road. Her last post took place at 8:33 a.m., just one minute before the first calls came in reporting the accident. A Las Vegas car accident lawyer understands that this could happen to each and every individual who chooses to take a selfie while behind the wheel.

To answer this question, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is currently in the process of researching the effectiveness of entry-level commercial driver’s license training programs, knowledge that a truck accident lawyer in Nevada would say is essential. Using a survey of the most recent year’s list of truck drivers and those who obtained their CDL within the past 3 years, the FMCSA will aim to determine the relationship between the amount of training hours and types of entry-level CDL training programs and how the training translates into trucker safety on the roads.
Parents in Nevada often take steps to make sure that they are purchasing the right toys for their children.

Despite these precautions, a defective product attorney Nevada knows that a child may become injured by a toy that is defective.

And how do you spot a good on-duty lifeguard so you can avoid incidents in the first place?
