Bumper stickers pique people’s interest through short messages contained in the fewest of words. Some stickers may have messages that are on the green side, some are just sarcastic and with pure malice, but there are also some which present good arguments. Personally, I appreciate stickers that are witty and can send the message across without being too direct. However, there was one simple bumper sticker that caught my attention because despite its simplicity, its message is something that most people forget.

Bumper stickers have been accepted as a workable means to advertise several ideas, thoughts, products, services, ...

Our common sense says that a speed limit is good. Otherwise, people will start driving at insanely high speed adding to the number ...

Drunk driving, or driving under the influence of alcohol is posing a great challenge on the roads because it is risking the lives of the drivers, their passengers, and other road users such as pedestrians and drivers of other vehicles on the road.

Issue

The current law sets the driving age at sixteen years. The assumption is that at attaining the age of sixteen, persons have the mental capacity to undertake driving. It is assumed that the same persons would conduct themselves diligently and observe the traffic rules.

Rationale

However, this assumption is being challenged given the statistics and cases that occur in the roads on a day to day basis. There are reasons to believe that the age limit should be raised from the statutory sixteen years to eighteen years. It is believed that the two year difference would at least account for ...

Background of the study

The content of alcohol in the blood stream popularly known as the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is the main source of evidence that the police present to the courts to decide if or not an individual has been driving while drunk. The BAC level is tested by the use of an ‘alco-blow’ device known as a breathalyzer, blood and urine tests conducted in clinical facilities. High amounts of alcohol in the blood system may affect proper driving as drunken persons seem to be oblivious of the danger that they expose themselves and other road users by driving under alcohol ...

Research studies indicate that one of the daunting tasks that many research students usually faces while conducting their quantitative research is identifying the appropriate statistical approach to use while analyzing their study (Mertler & Vannatta, 2010). Fortunately, multivariate has solved the problem by providing the capacity to examining two or more variable and their in-depth relationship. Multivariate analysis models can be classified into two main groups- logit or discriminant. Discriminant mainly addresses the structure of the data extensively while the logit is slightly demanding in terms of assumptions (Roberts, 2008). In qualitative research, multivariate analysis may be appropriate at different ...

Unfortunately, very often, the damages and injuries because of a car accident are caused by a drunk driver. Every fourth accident is caused by drivers under the influence of alcohol.

The federal law in fifty states forbids to drive with alcohol concentration in a blood at the level higher than 0.08 percent (DWI/DUI Laws of U.S. States). However, each state has different additional laws, penalties, restrictions and limits use alcohol. Some specialists ...

There are five systems that are necessary for vehicles to function as required i.e. 1. Structure. An example of a structure in vehicles that is important in terms of efficiency is the lighting system together with the wipers. The lighting system consists of headlights.

Many evils in society today exist because they have been allowed to proliferate unchecked. Once these evils reach the zenith, critics hold the ‘relevant authorities’ culpable for their earlier inaction. At this point, the problem has usually reached such a level that it becomes extremely difficult to contain and eradicate. Instead, in societies characterized by wisdom and foresight, problems are adumbrated and proactive measures are taken to prevent the issue from ballooning into a monster. One such case is that of use of cell phones by drivers while driving.It is extremely important that this practice be discouraged by the ...

Calls for reforms of the National speed limit in the transport sector have been a debatable issue for many years. Whilst the government attempts to determine the required limits on the roads, citizens have also given their views on the same. Despite the full devolution signed in 1995, whether or not national laws should regulate speed limits is still a predicament. On October 29, 2008, The New York Times published an article dubbed “An Old Refrain: Slow Down” Written by Jeffrey J. Selingo, the article finds basis on the speeding problems along American highways and the ideologies motorists have ...

Individuals, especially teenagers are always in contact with their phone checking twitter, Facebook and text messages. 80 percent of the teenagers are of the misconception that texting while driving ...

Background of Trucking Deregulation in the US

Trucking was primarily a highly regulated industry in the United States (US), mainly because rail freight was initially preferred for transporting goods, particularly heavy materials. The Motor Carrier Act of 1935 imposed a restriction on the entry of new players in the trucking industry and the specification of certain truck routes under the administration of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC). Yet, the emergence of antitrust laws towards the 1950s and the growing financial stability of the trucking industry led to the passage of the Reed-Bullwinkle Act. The Reed-Bullwinkle Act further oversaw the growing ...

Assembly Bill 60

The Assembly Bill 60, which has since been enacted as the Safe and Responsible Driver Act, enables the issuance of driver’s license to undocumented immigrants who prove that they are residents of the State of California.
