When the pressures of life return to the level it was fifty years ago, there will be little need of…Read More iron fisted restraints on legalized self induced relaxation.

Yes let's lower it to 0.00. Let's make it illegal to even look at alcohol before driving.
Let's…Read More also require drivers wear helmets while driving because it will save an estimated 1 out of 5 car fatalities according to Australian studies.
Let's raise the driving age to 25. That will save lives.
Let's make the following illegal while driving: talking to passengers, looking away from the road, driving with one hand, using the radio, snacking, thinking, drinking coffee, shaving, makeup, GPS devices. If it saves one life it's worth it.
The goal should be to make driving a zero-risk activity at whatever cost.

Lower the level to .02 which is the standard in Sweden. Or .00 which is the level in Japan.
It is…Read More sad to read the comments already posted by alcoholics here who oppose lowing the level. if you can't resist drinking alcohol before you drive then you have a serious substance abuse problem and you need to get treatment for your addiction. If you want to have a glass of wine with dinner then do it at home, but don't drive.

I'm curious to know what kind of security threat. I have a son who right now is waiting at home for…Read More a home and hospital assignment because he fears bullies and physical altercations from other students at that school. With all the stuff that goes on there, the administration honestly has no clue on how to control it. I hope it was some kind of chemical spill and not another student gone postal.

shawnda i was a friend of craigs. we went camping,hiking,fishing togather and i couldnt find…Read More anything anywhhere that explained services for him. could you please respond back to me on if there was services and if he was buried so i could visit his burial? thank you

I'm very sorry for your loss, Shawnda, and for everyone who knew Craig. What was he like?
Shawnda Cline April 2, 2013 at 09:33 pm
I will miss my nephew... He has done so much for so many... I don't understand what caused him to do…Read More something so dangerous.

The Partition area, wide opened, is approx 12inches in height. A survivor said she squeezed to get…Read More thru, so obviously it was not opened all the way by the driver to allow the women an escape-access! Also, Ive read that 3 survivors escaped thru the right back door..., so why couldnt the others? In the TV News pics, the Survivors sat calmly on the side of the road... looked numb & out of it?
I would have been jumping, yelling, trying to stop traffic to help us! It was hard for me to see them just sitting there quietly..., were they intoxicated? In shock?
I wish the driver had, in a 2 second flash, opened the Partition all the way down as he "jumped out to save his skin" & gone to the right side to secure the door open. The flames were left-sided rear. OR was he thinkg that more air/ O2 would have lit up fire more, OR was his electricity out by the Fire? DID he try breakg a rear window open w/ his shoe at least?
All of it is puzz'ling & a tragedy that has so so many unanswered questions. We count on the Captain to help us..., but remember the sunk Greek cruise ship?? Captain got off & rowed away first!! My heart goes out to the deceased here, and survivors as well.

Why couldn't they open the door? That truly sucks, like they were locked inside their own death…Read More chamber. Had to crawl over and through the barrier between them and the driver???? I think that area should have the old fashioned pull up locks back there. The electric locks could fail if it was an electrical fire. Perhaps a mounted fire extinguisher inside the passenger area would have helped. New regulations in the 2014 limos!

Shame. Checking references is always helpful, but this is sad.(:

well,,,,, Police: Fatal Shooting At Large Family Party
"Concord PD arrests Concord man on…Read More suspicion of shooting Brentwood man on Mi Casa Court, near Monument Boulevard." We need to take guns away from illegals, or maybe give them more to increase the attrition rate.

you probably never get out of your car or come in the late evening.

I'm from Oakland, and at certain times, it reminds me of international blvd (aka e.14th street).…Read More Dope Dealers, Thugs, Prostitutes, etc. What that means is that it WILL be Oakland if its allowed to continue to thrive like it currently is. Stop the madness, setup police in this area. Also that street that is 100% Oakland all of the time, Laguna Street. That makes Oakland, look like Richmond. Just saying. How can that be right next to the Police Department? Gross. Needles everywhere, hookers, pimps beating up hookers.. just gross.

I was driving down Concord Blvd. at Elm St. when he sped around another car and then came into my…Read More lane and would have hit me head-on. I swerved into the next lane where luckily there wasn't another car. Then I pulled off to the side of the road and watched in my rear view mirror as five police cars pursued him as he continued to drive down the wrong side of the road. It was a scary incident. I'm so glad they caught him.
Sal Crispi April 25, 2013 at 11:16 am
Shouldn't the police release a photo of the suspect? After all, he has a felony arrest warrant which…Read More the police have on record! And what about a description of the car he jacked?
ROBERT E. FISHBACK April 26, 2013 at 04:36 pm
c5..just curious....c5 is Pentane...a very light and clear hydro-carbon. I wonder if a person who…Read More had a part of his colon removed would have a semi-colon....Has this thread become an exercise in Scatology ? :)
