This list does not imply that all drivers are bad, it tells us these areas have a higher rate of accidents do to factors such as: weather, road conditions, traffic, number of cars per capita and socio cultural stress levels. Individuals who live and drive in major metropolitan areas, especially the ones on the list, have to keep a watchful eye not only in what they do, but also in the conduct of other drivers. 411 Pain understands that there are many factors that can cause an accident. Many car accidents are unplanned and others are caused from distractions that could have been easily avoided. At 411 Pain we recommend that no matter where you live and drive, obeying traffic laws and using your car’s safety features like turn signals, headlights, and avoiding distraction inside and outside your vehicle are all ways to be safer.

These statistics demonstrate just how car accidents can happen to any driver especially in crowded busy metropolitan areas. As a company dedicated to driver safety, 1-800-411-Pain strongly advises drivers to pay attention when driving and operating a vehicle. Even small distractions can lead to accidents.

411 Pain and Child Car Safety: Part 2


In the Garage or driveway

At  411 Pain we understand how important the safety of your children is, and we know vehicles can still be a danger even if they are not in them. In the US alone, every week, 50 children are injured due to vehicles hitting them while backing up. Unfortunately two of those are fatalities. In 70% of these cases the driver of the vehicle is a parent, grandparent, aunt, or older sibling. The best suggestion we can give readers is:

Backing In- When possible turn and back up on your way in to the driveway, so you can drive straight out when you leave, with a clear view of what's ahead of you.
  




Inside the Car
A car can still be very dangerous even if not in motion. Never leave your children alone in a car. There are many risks to a child's safety if left alone inside such as:

Heat stroke- To often do we hear of infants and children dying  from dehydration due to parents leaving them in the car, not only is it dangerous but can become a matter of the law.

Vehicle in motion-  Children are energetic and tend to play inside cars when they are bored. This can cause them to accidentally set the car in motion and find themselves in the middle of a busy road.

Power accessories- Having electric devices and heavy object inside the car with children can be a potential hazard to their health and safety.

Car crashes- Even if your car is not in motion children should not be inside if not necessary, another driver could collide into your vehicle harming the passengers who may not even be wearing a seat belt.

Kidnapping- Not very common but occasionally unattended children have been know to be taken from a vehicle.

Here are some suggestions that can reduce the chance of injuries and ensure child safety around vehicles

·      Keep vehicles locked at all times, even if its in your garage or driveway.
·      Don’t leave the vehicles keys within the reach of children.
·      Inform your children to never play in or around vehicles.
·      Make sure all children have left the vehicle after you park.
·      When a child is missing, check vehicles and trunks immediately.
·      If a child is locked inside a vehicle, get them out quickly.

At 1-800-411-Pain we emphasize the importance on child safety and educate parents so that they may teach their children the rules and safety precautions needed to be safe. At 411 Pain we believe in parents establishing the foundation for a lifelong habit of seat belt use every time your child travels.

Accident Involving Ferrari GTO
Leads to Most Expensive Car Crash Ever

Last December, eight Ferraris, three Mercedes and a Lamborghini collided on a freeway in Japan, causing an estimated four million dollars in damage. At the time, this was considered the most expensive car accident of all time. Last week this record car crash’s total cost in damages was topped by over thirty million dollars.
A Ferrari GTO, a car widely recognized as the Picasso of the motor-vehicle world, was involved in an accident in France. Only 36 Ferrari GTOs were made between 1962 and 1963. The car is worth an estimated thirty to thirty-five million dollars. The car’s owner, U.S. businessman Christopher Cox, was driving the vehicle during the 50th anniversary celebration of the rare model when he was hit by another car. No one was injured in the accident.
Though there was extensive damage done to a valuable vehicle, 1 800 411 Pain is pleased that no one was injured in the crash.

Single Car Accident Causes 867
People to Lose Power

A single car accident in Southern California caused a total of 867 residents to lose power on the morning of July 3rd. The crash occurred on Harbor Boulevard, north of Kashlan Road. Deputy Suzanne Talley reports that a truck struck a power pole, causing the wires to fall to the ground. No one was injured in the accident and drugs or alcohol are not thought to have been a factor. Aside from the large number of people who were left without power, those involved were very fortunate.
This story demonstrates just how quickly a car accident can occur and how much damage one can inflict with little or no warning. As a company dedicated to driver safety, 1 800 411 Pain strongly advises motorists to focus as closely on driving as possible when operating a vehicle. Even small distractions can lead to enormous accidents.

1800 411 Pain Settles Dispute Over Advertising

After several months of working to resolve a discrepancy with The Attorney General, 1 800 411 Pain has voluntarily agreed to settle outside of court. In spite of the fact that 1 800 411 Pain’s advertising practices were in complete compliance with The Florida Bar, the state’s governing body of legal services, The Attorney General continued to pursue an investigation. Upon completion of the investigation, no evidence of poor business tactics was discovered. Still, however, The Attorney General has continued to pursue actions against 1 800 411 Pain. With no other evidence of wrongdoing, The Attorney General flagged 411 Pain’s advertising practices.
Agreeing to settle the dispute outside of court, 1 800 411 Pain generously donated $550,000 to Broward County Healthcare Organizations, Broward General Medical Center and Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital.

The 411 on Trauma Center Visits

Recent studies have found that individuals who are seriously injured in a car accident are more than thirty percent more likely to survive if they are taken directly to a trauma center, as opposed to being taken to a non-trauma hospital. The study involved statistics recorded from 6,341 accidents in Ontario, Canada between 2002 and 2010. The findings revealed that less than half of the people seriously injured in car accidents are transported directly to a trauma center.  Dr. Avery Nathens, trauma director at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto, explains “Minutes matter and severely injured patients can't advocate for themselves so we have the responsibility to ensure that the system works optimally."
As a business devoted to driver safety, 1 800 411 Pain is dedicated to providing motorists with the latest information on safer driving practices. A car accident can happen instantly, leaving little or no time to react. For this reason, 1 800 411 Pain strongly encourages drivers to travel as safely and cautiously as possible. It is every driver’s responsibility to do their part in minimizing the likelihood that an accident does occur.
