Parking garage driving safety tips
Taking action after being involved in a rush-hour accident
Driving during rush hour is statistically one of the most dangerous times to be on the road. In fact, one in four car accidents happen during rush-hour traffic. This is partly because of the sheer number of cars on the road during this time. It could also be argued that rush hour is a dangerous time to be on the road because drivers are often fatigued and eager to get to and from work. Due to this fatigue and anxiety, they may also be more likely to engage in distracted driving.

Drug charges follow claimed discovery of illegal grow operation
Use of recreational marijuana is permitted in Colorado, but there are strict regulations in place when it comes to growing the plants. Only those who are older than 21 may grow marijuana for personal use. There is a limit to the number of plants each person may grow, and also the number of flowering plants an individual can have at one time. Violating those laws could lead to drug charges.
Have this tough conversation with your elderly loved one
One of the hardest things to do is have that conversation with an older relative about hanging up the car keys for good.
