Some Pennsylvania car accidents are just the result of the perfect storm of events that ends in tragedy. Others can be more sinister and are often the result of the poor decision making on the part of a driver or passenger. This was the case in a recent accident that resulted in the death of a 45-year-old woman and vehicular homicide charges leveled against the driver who caused the accident.

Government rule addresses fatigue among truckers
Driving any vehicle while tired can be dangerous. This is something people in Pennsylvania are well aware of yet this is something that commercial truckers, especially those who operate long-haul routes, may do on a regular basis.
