The Insurance Institute for Highway Safey (IIHS) has released the results of a new study that demonstrate that, while automakers have achieved great success in protecting drivers in crashes, they have to some work to do when it comes to saving passengers. In fact, of the seven SUVs tested for passenger-side "small overlap" collisions, only one received a "good" rating, while the others ranged from "poor" to "adequate."
This is why you avoid flood waters at all costs. In a video taken at Jerry's Rentals and Outfitter outside New Braunfels, Texas, we see a Jeep go from being parked in relatively shallow water to being rolled over like a toy in the swollen Guadalupe River.
Kim Jacobs posted the footage on Facebook, reminding people just how seriously you should heed flood warnings, saying,
For a teen, crashing your parents' car has to rank as the worst possible thing that can happen to you. Crashing it on the way to prom has to be icing on the worst-case scenario cake. For two New Jersey teens, it was just the start of prom night.
Ever wonder about which everyday items you already have your home that should be scaring you? I do!
After a violent crash left him with traumatic brain injuries, a Georgia man and his wife are blaming Snapchat's "speed" filter, according to a new lawsuit.

Many of us are too poor to have to own a Tesla Model S, or our rich friends are too electric car-averse, so we'll never know how cool the Teslas's autopilot feature is because we have to settle for borrowed McLarens. Until now! The folks at Slow News Day have a rich friend who does like electric cars, so they filmed themselves driving (and not driving) a Tesla Model S through Birmingham rush hour for our enjoyment.
Ever wonder how many distracted drivers you're sharing the road with?
There are maybe two appropriate reasons to have a sticker that says "Sorry Officer I Thought You Wanted A Race" on your car:
1) You are extremely law-abiding and it's ironic.
2) You are legitimately impossible to beat in a race.

When Firefighter William Lindler of the Hanahan Fire Department in South Carolina found Jake the pit bull puppy, things weren't look good. Lindler told ABC News he rescued Jake from a "badly burning shed" outside a family's house in Charleston last April:
