accidents

Watch as a man falls from a pole at a folk festival in Russia.

In only the past seven days, I've almost been in three vehicle accidents. Two of these happened on the same day while on my way home from work. Was it because I'm a horrible, reckless driver? No. All I was doing was merging into turning lanes, but as I did, other drivers were barreling towards the light because they didn't want to wait until it was the proper time to do so. This has to stop.

I think we are all fans of fireworks except when we are not supposed to be seeing fireworks and especially when we cause the fireworks unintentionally.

Just when you think you've seen everything there comes a video with something that you can't even imagine seeing.

Lafayette's Buster Graham is caught up in a high speed crash at Daytona International Speedway during Saturday's ARCA Racing Series event.

This may be one of the most frightening base jumping videos I have ever seen. This guy has used up all his luck for one lifetime if you ask me.

Lake of the Ozarks Missouri is a Mecca for the boating enthusiast throughout the country. The seemingly endless lake is the perfect place for fishing, skiing and just enjoying a great time on the water.  Going fast on the water is a unique experience.

For years, car accidents have been the leading cause of accidental death. But that all changed four years ago when, for the first time, vehicle-related deaths were topped by poisoning due to prescription painkillers like OxyContin and Vicodin.

A recent study of accidents involving the gas pedals of vehicles yielded some age and gender-specific results.

What could happen in :13 seconds that could catch my attention and qualify as my favorite video? Well if you invest less than a quarter of a minute you will find out.

Yesterday (Feb. 23), Clint Black, Bill Anderson and Bob DiPiero walked away from a bus accident they were involved in while traveling in Dublin, Ireland. The three renowned singer-songwriters are currently touring Ireland and the UK with the CMA Songwriter Series. While traveling in their Gibson Guitars bus, the trio was rear-ended by a passenger car.

My son Jack is learning how to drive and we are in the process of teaching him the rules of the road. The one point I try to emphasize more than most is expect the unexpected. There are things you can prepare for by making sure your car and tires are in good shape...

A tow truck makes a mad dash through heavy traffic to be first on the scene of an accident. He almost causes a couple of new accidents on the way.

I have often wondered if they used to have traffic accidents back in the horse and buggy days? Judging by this video not only do they have accidents but they look like they hurt pretty bad when you're involved in one of them.

Tourists watching the Old West show in Hill City, South Dakota last Friday got a real taste of the mayhem associated with that time period when live ammo began spraying into the crowd. Investigators  aren’t sure if real bullets somehow got into the actor’s guns, or if it was  shrapnel from blanks that wounded three spectators seriously enough to be taken to the hospital in  ambulances.
