Car accidents cause serious injuries across South Florida. Each year, victims of car accidents are rushed to Fort Lauderdale and Florida emergency rooms with head injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, fractures, and other serious injuries. However, it is not just the accident and impact of the crash itself that can cause serious injuries. In some cases, a secondary cause can cause serious and even fatal injuries.

Some car accidents in Fort Lauderdale and South Florida, for example, involve not only another car but also utility poles. Downed power lines can seriously injure a driver attempting to leave their car. In some cases, victims of traffic accidents in Fort Lauderdale and across South Florida sustain serious burn injuries or are even electrocuted because of downed power lines.

The safest place is in your car

If you are in a car or truck accident in Fort Lauderdale or anywhere in South Florida and the accident involves utility poles and downed power lines, the safest place for you to be is inside your car. If possible, remain in your vehicle and call 911 as well as the local power authority. Even if the downed power line is not close to your car, the area could be electrified and could harm you if you attempt to get out of your car or approach a car that has been in an accident near a downed power line. Verify with emergency dispatch and the power company that it is safe to get out of the car before you attempt to do so.

If you must leave your car after an accident, use caution

If you are in a traffic accident in Fort Lauderdale or South Florida involving a downed power line but cannot safely remain in your car, you can tuck your arms close to your body and try to leap free of your car. You can reduce the risk of electrocution if you try to avoid touching the car and the ground at the same time. However, it is best to call 911 first and try to get the power shut off before attempting this.

If you do leap from the car, experts suggest keeping your feet together and shuffling or hopping, avoiding placing one foot in front of the other or lifting one foot higher than the other. If one foot is placed in a higher voltage zone than the other, this could make your body a conduit for electricity and this can lead to serious injuries.

Do you think its fair in DC mayor says ignore any crimes committed by illegals how can he allow amnesty for all illegals and state that U.S. laws in no way apply to them ? The post 9-11 world dictates that there are very public few places in Washington, D.C. where lawfully abiding residents and commuters are not discretely monitored, politely questioned, or upon entering buildings, physically searched. But while we accept scrutiny in order to enhance public safety, illegal aliens – those who have broken U.S. laws and whose unknown motives may deserve the most scrutiny – enjoy the least, thanks to a longstanding sanctuary policy reinforced this week.

Letting the powerful illegal alien lobbies know that he’s looking out for their best interests, Washington, D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray has signed an executive order formalizing the existing “don’t-ask-don’t-tell” policy which prohibits police from inquiring about the immigration status of people they arrest or reporting that status to federal authorities.

The mayor claims that D.C. police are not in the business of enforcing federal immigration laws. Does that mean his officers won’t pursue bank robbers or kidnappers if they come in contact with perpetrators of crimes typically handled by federal agencies?

If any city in America has a history of working closely with their federal partners, it’s Washington, D.C. The sanctuary policy is not about jurisdiction, it’s about defying immigration enforcement with great fanfare to whip up political support with a growing Hispanic community.

Police are authorized and have a responsibility to enforce all laws, unless of course they’re specifically told by their local jurisdiction not to. Asking about immigration status after lawful conduct and reasonable suspicion doesn’t transform any police officer into an ICE agent, it simply allows that officer to conduct a basic precept of law enforcement – don’t catch and release lawbreakers and jeopardize public safety.

Tonight somewhere in Washington, D.C., an officer will probably encounter a speeding vehicle and begin a lawful traffic stop asking for license, registration and proof of insurance – a universal verification process that is the same for everyone. And that vehicle might be loaded with 9 people who speak no English, have no driver’s licenses, no vehicle registration, no auto insurance, no social security numbers and maybe only Mexican consular cards or Gold’s Gym Cards. At that point common sense might suggest that asking about immigration status is warranted. But Mayor Gray thinks that D.C. residents will be better off if the officer ignores the obvious and just says “have a nice day” or preferably, ’que tenga un buen días.”

And the residents of Washington, D.C. – sharing their space already with 35,000 illegal aliens – won’t be having a nice day. Sanctuary city policies not only let the existing illegal aliens know they have no worries, but are also welcome mats to thousands more. Mayor Gray’s job is to allocate limited community resources to legal residents, not advertise his city as a safe haven and encourage thousands of additional illegal aliens to come in and drain finite services.

So if somebody illegal robs a bank, the police cannot do anything but say, have a nice day ?

This one, admittedly, makes no sense at all. I heard it this morning, on Fox News, and could not believe my ears. An executive order, putting "cuffs" on the authorities, is outrageous.

No wonder so many American citizens are out of work – their jobs are secured by those who have been given a free license to work here, without background checks or proper identification.

We are rushing towards chaos – nationwide chaos, and the "powers-that-be" are aiding and abetting the perpetrators.

I couldn’t care less about being un-American, and also the constitution hasn’t stopped the government from eroding our freedoms so why should it now? At least if we made an exception for this it wouldn’t harm anyone.

I think instead of outright banning anything
we should all simply agree not to vote for anyone who aligns themselves with a major political party or anyone who engages in obnoxious or incendiary campaign advertisement.

We expected good things from The University of Alabama when we gave the green light to the students behind the Less Than U Think campaign, but once we started seeing their campaign in action, we were blown away. The students had a clear, convincing and novel message, and made sure that everyone saw it.

That’s why we were excited to hear that the campaign has been getting some love from the American Advertising Federation– Tuscallosa.

From The Globe and Mail

When it comes to children of divorce, as hard as it may be, you don’t want the holidays to be a time that they dread.

“Yeah, the holidays have a rich tradition with my family. It’s when Mom and Dad argue over every possible thing and always put me in the middle so that I get so tense I get have my annual holiday anxiety rash.”

We all want it to be a special time. But because the holidays are freighted with emotion, nostalgia and guilt, they can be tough to navigate. When parents are living in separate homes – often not getting along – conflicts severely dampen that festive spirit, and a vindictive spouse can quickly turn what is supposed to be a happy time into one of true unpleasantness and stress.
