by STC Fellow and Region 1 Director Cindy Currie
I’ve just recently returned from the September STC Board of Director’s meeting* in Denver, where I had the opportunity to meet and work closely with Rob Moran, the STC’s new interim Executive Director.

Rob will also advise and consult to STC as we continue the search for a new permanent Executive Director.

California Ranked No. 2 in Nation for Traffic Deaths

May 14, 2012 / posted in Weight Loss / Comments Off

California holds the unfortunate distinction of being ranked number two among the twenty states that lead the nation in the number of traffic fatalities on rural roads. The September 2011 report by the nonprofit TRIP, a national transportation research group, shows 1,164 fatal traffic accidents occurred on California’s rural roads in 2009. According to the nonprofit group’s report, traffic deaths on rural roads in the U. S. happen at a rate more than three times as much as on all other roads. 51 percent?more than half?of the traffic deaths in the U. S. in 2009 occurred on rural roads, while travel on those roads only account for 25 percent of all the miles traveled. It is clear that rural roads have a disproportionate share of traffic fatalities compared to other roads. Contributing to the problem of deaths on rural roads is road safety design tha capsiplex t may not be adequate, such as narrow lanes, no shoulder or tight shoulders, winding paths or sharp curves; the longer time interval for emergency responders to reach a crash site on a rural road; and faster speeds that people drive on them compared to urban roads. Rural roads are often only two lanes, with opposing traffic traveling nearby with no median or barrier. Drivers on rural roads in 2009 were almost twice as likely as drivers on all other roads to be involved in a fatal crash while they were trying to follow a road’s curve. Drivers on rural roads are also more likely to be involved in a deadly head-on collision. Interestingly, most of those head-on collisions did not happen when one driver was trying to pass another vehicle. Most head-on collisions occurred because a driver was tired, or distracted, or was driving around a curve too fast.

Fuel Mileage Efficiency Rules Delayed, Ford Pulls Bailout Ad and Other Automotive News

May 3, 2012 / posted in Other Health / Comments Off

MI Auto Times reports on some of the top stories making the industry rounds, including a delay in the federal government’s plans to give fuel mileage a significant boost. DETROIT, M. I. ? Fuel mileage, OnStar and less deadly SUVs are some of the topics being discussed in today’s roundup of industry news. Ford Pulls Ad Ford had been running a commercial in which a “real Ford customer” is walked into a news conference. When the customer was asked what made him decide to buy Ford, he replied, “I wasn’t going to buy another car that was bailed out by our government. I was going to buy from a manufacturer that’s standing on their own. Win, lose or draw, that’s what America’s about. It’s taking the chance to succeed and understanding when you fail that you’ve got to pick yourself up and go back to work, and Ford is that compa lester levenson books ny for me. ” Lo and behold, Ford didn’t take a bailout, but the company did manage to score $5. 9 billion in government loans, the most taken so far, from the 2009 $25 billion advanced technology vehicle loan program created by the U. S. Department of Energy. So far, Ford has used the money to fix up factories and create more fuel-efficient technology. “Fuel Mileage Can Wait” The Obama administration has announced it plans to delay new fuel-efficiency rules until the middle of November. More time is required to review all the comments made by environmental groups, automakers and consumers. The new rules of the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) would require automakers to produce a fleet of cars and light trucks that would average 54. 5 miles per gallon in 2025, with a smaller benchmark of 35. 5 mpg achieved by 2017.
