How to Easily Boost Your Productivity - and...
How disciplined are you? If you're like most freelancers, you love the "time freedom" of your lifestyle. No more punching a time clock or being chained to a desk. No more "hanging up quickly" when the boss walks by. As a freelancer those days are gone forever...but one quickly learns that in order to make a great living as a copywriter, you're now the "boss" to whom you must be accountable! It's ironic, to be sure. And as you strive for higher and higher income and greater and greater success, you'll realize that neither will come without strict time discipline on your part. Setting Your "Policy" Now that you work from home (as most freelance writers do), people will know that you're available for...
The single biggest factor in vehicle safety isn't the latest technology, air bags, electronics or driver skill. According to Dr. Philip Hessburg, chairman of the internationally recognized The Eye and the Auto symposium and president of the Detroit Institute of Ophthalmology, the single biggest factor in vehicle safety is the driver's vision. Information from such safety experts as Leonard Evans supports Hessburg. Evans' book "Traffic Safety" notes that vision provides motorists more than 90 percent of the information used to drive. "I can't imagine anything being more important than the ability of the driver to see clearly through the windshield," said Dr. Hessburg, noting that reduced visibility...

What to Do & Know if You Are in an Auto...
Every year, there are more than 6 million car accidents in the United States, and knowing what to do if you are involved in one of them is essential to your safety -- both physically and financially. When the Accident Occurs The first thing you should do is stop. Each state has their own penalties for fleeing the scene of an accident, but if you don't stop you could be later charged with a "hit and run." Next, assess the scene with safety in mind. If the accident is minor and no one is seriously injured, pull the car to the side of the road, out of the way of traffic. If people are hurt, do your best to help them. Call the police and tell them you need an ambulance. If you have first-aid training...
Criminal Defense Investigator
We all know about Private Investigators. The classic stereotype evokes images of guys in seedy clothes, toting cigarettes, coffee cups, donuts, and six-shooters. They're the guys who run the shadows of law enforcement, who seek out criminals in shady alleyways and sneaky backwater pubs. In reality, of course, P.I.s aren't anything like that, but the classic Humphrey Bogart image has gained them an infamy that cannot be erased from the consciousness of society. Detectives are the "bad boys" of law enforcement, and will do whatever it takes to bring criminals to justice. Despite the stereotype, there actually exists a breed of private investigator that would greatly surprise Bogart fans out there...
Your worst nightmare as a pilot - a DUI. Will this end your career as a pilot? What if you are the lawyer representing a pilot? Is this a simple DUI case or will it end your law career with a malpractice lawsuit? I know these questions can light up your eyes to why a pilot is different when they get a DUI.

Second, pilots fall under another set of rules from the FAA. They are the FARS...
How To Search For Driving Records
A driving record contains some valuable information for drivers and non-drivers alike. It includes details about an individual's driving status, type of driver license held, and driving history. Thanks to the miracle of the internet, accessing your driving record (or, for that matter, someone else's driving record) doesn't have to be as hard as it used to in the early days. In the early days, one option was very time-consuming - that is to visit your local Department of Motor Vehicles office and stand in long waiting lines. Presently, the DMV still offers this service but has also added the convenience of making driving records available by the use of other methods such as calling them on the phone...

This ensures that people who are a bit...
Dui Help: Refuse Dui Pre-screening Tests
In most states, if you are suspected of drunk driving, you must take a blood alcohol content test such as a breathalyzer when asked to do so by police or face very harsh penalties. But police must have reasonable suspicion that you have been drinking before they can ask you to take a BAC test. To establish reasonable suspicion police use a range of questions and DUI pre-screening or field sobriety tests. You are not required to answer the questions or to participate in any of the tests. If you do go along with these tests you are only giving the officer the reasonable suspicion he or she needs to require you to take a BAC test. Refuse to Have a Nice Chat and Avoid a DUI Test One of the simplest ways...

It's simple! Follow the "rules of the road". With few exceptions, when operating a bicycle on the streets and highways you must comply with the motor vehicle traffic regulations of your state and locality. Yes, you have all the rights of a motor vehicle driver, but you also have the same responsibilities they do. That means you must drive on the right side of a two way street, except when overtaking or passing. You must obey traffic lights and signs. At uncontrolled intersections, remember the vehicle on the left yields the right-of-way to the vehicle on the right. Where bike paths or lanes are available, use them. When traveling with a group, it is best to ride single file and never more than two...

Safe Driving Tips
Years ago I took a Defensive Driving Course and many of the techniques stuck with me. Indeed, some of them probably kept me out of serious accidents. Here are a few of the common sense tips I learned: 1. When traveling on a 4 lane or wider highway always stay in the right hand lane (at least in the good old USA) unless you are passing someone. If an oncoming car loses control, and swerves across the median, the chances are that he will hit a vehicle in the left lane before hitting one in the right lane. So the right lane is the safest place to be. Always play the odds in your favor. Along the same lines, if you're traveling in the left lane and someone coming towards you swerves across the line...
THE REFUSAL CASE
When a California DUI suspect refuses to take a chemical test, both the DUI defendant and the prosecution are presented with challenges and opportunities. California has a law called the informed consent law of chemical testing. What this means is that when you got your drivers license, you agreed (although you probably did not realize it at the time) that in exchange for the state giving you your drivers license, you agreed to submit to a chemical test. This law means that the state does not need a warrant or other court order to have you submit to a chemical test. If a DUI suspect is arrested and after arrest is given the opportunity to take a chemical test such as a breath, blood, or urine test...

Understanding Dwi
Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) is the title of classification used to identify a drunk driving within the overall category known as Driving Under the Influence (DUI). Operating Under the Influence (OUI) and Operating a Motor Vehicle Intoxicated (OMVI) are the two other titles that fall within the DUI category. While laws specific to DWI do vary from state to state, a driver is generally in violation of DWI laws if they are unable to safely operate their vehicle due to intoxication. Intoxication is determined through set standards for Blood-Alcohol Concentration (BAC), Field Sobriety, and Implied Consent Laws. After being stopped by a law enforcement agent for suspected DWI, it is up to the agents...

There's been quite a bit of talk about lowering the drinking age limit for people who serve in the military. The argument posed is that these people are young enough to shoot guns, serve and die for the U.S., so why not allow them to drink legally? Of course, organizations like M.A.D.D. consider this to be a foolish idea. They're just not mature enough to think logically when they get behind the wheel after a few drinks. Is it indeed foolish to legalize drinking for active duty military younger than 21? States such as Wisconsin and South Carolina have pushed for allowing active duty military under 21 to drink. There are even groups on the internet collecting signatures via social networking...
