Drivers should not be negligent while navigating the roads. Any act of recklessness can result in an accident, which can have serious implications for both the driver and the victim.
USPS and DOL reach settlement on unsafe working conditions
For Newark residents, U.S. Postal Service employees are invaluable when it comes to delivering information. While some people may assume that USPS employees have relatively safe jobs, their jobs can actually involve plenty of unsafe working conditions. Mail carriers have a good chance of being bitten by dogs, for example, and they are also prone to road accidents. However, that was not why the Department of Labor filed a complaint against the USPS.
Two people hurt after New Jersey truck accident involving a train
A collision between a New Jersey Transit train and a truck that occurred minutes away from Newark sent two people to a hospital and caused delays for commuters during Friday rush hour. The accident happened in Garfield, New Jersey, when a truck that was carrying plastic pellets got stuck on the railway at Hobart Place around noon. Apparently, a part of the truck that acts as a pylon when a trailer is not connected got attached to the track and prevented it from moving away from the railroad. The 51-year-old truck driver was able to escape his cab prior to the collision and did not suffer any injuries.
