Gli esseri umani, all’inizio della storia erano nomadi, e gli elementi, anche dopo che la civiltà urbana è emerso come modello dominante, il dinamismo e il movimento è rimasto estremamente importante e forieri di crescita positiva. Possiamo dire che le società che viaggiano privilegiata, il traffico e la circolazione delle persone, delle idee e delle merci sono cresciuti, mentre i paesi in cui gli scambi e traffici sono stati bloccati e limitati sono decaduti. In età moderna dei motori, gli aeroporti e la velocità, è ovvio che viaggio, viaggio e trasporti hanno assistito a una profonda accelerazione, sperimentando una maggiore importanza per i cittadini, i prodotti e le relazioni.

Congratulations goes out to both the Boxster and Cayman for making Car and Driver magazine’s list of “10 Best” vehicles sold in America.
This is the 11th time the Boxster has appeared on the list and the 4th time for the Cayman.
According to a member of the panel: “There are a lot of words beginning with the letter “P” that can describe the mechanically identical Boxster and Cayman – but we think the most appropriate one is Perfect.”
The list is determined by a panel of 18 editors using a 100-point scale. They evaluate the vehicles based on functional performance, driving satisfaction and value. To be considered for the award, vehicles have to be priced below the cap of $80,000.
Car & Driver: 2010 Porsche Bocster/Cayman – 10 Best Cars
Circa 1920s– Lillian La France in her early Motordrome riding days. This must be 1924, or close to it. She looks a little green, and that signature smile and exuberant confidence is not quite present.
*
“It was the thrill of risking my life that made me to take to drome riding. I was the girl who flirts with death. From childhood I was inspired by wanderlust. I was always alone, dreaming of adventures– how to ride a pony out West, to follow my calling to fame. This was my secret. I shared it with no one.”
–Lillian LaFrance

*
Born in 1894, Agnes was the second of nine girls born into an honest-living Catholic farming family. She christened herself Lillian LaFrance and quickly shook the dust of her hometown off her boots sometime around 1916, and roared off to create the life she had always dreamt of, carving it raw as she went along. She began drome riding in 1924, and left a blurry, yet brilliant legacy behind that still haunts many who are taken by the images of her incredible spirit staring back through squinty eyes in a copy of a copy of old grainy photos. Incredible.
What will I do today? Nothin’ much, in comparison anyway.
*
Great shots of La France– I’m a sucker any day for the aviator goggles, jodphurs and riding boots.

Lillian La France started riding the Motor Drome in 1924, at the age of 30 yrs old, and was equally adept on a motorcycle or on four wheels.
*
Lillian La France sporting a jersey with a skull and crossbones motif– which was quite popular among the stunt rider set of the day. A symbol of rebellion and perhaps a manifestation of an inner, romanticized death-wish.

Charming, candid shots of stunt rider Lillian La France.

Keep Your Home and Auto Insurance With The Same Company.
Many insurers offer a discount if you purchase both auto and homeowner coverage with them. While this does not always guarantee a cheaper premium, in most cases you should see some overall savings.
Do not fall into the trap of thinking cheaper is always a better deal. A big mistake made by insurance shoppers is only looking at price and not considering the quality of the insurer and the value of a reliable and competent agent.
Morbi’s historic ‘Julto Pul’ to re-open in last week of Jan
Rajkot, January 4 The historic Julto Pul (hanging bridge) of Morbi will be thrown open to the public, in the last week of January, after a gap of nearly three decades. The repair and renovation work on this engineering marvel, inspired by the famous Hanging Bridge of London, is on the verge of completion.
Spanning the Machuchu River, it is one of the few hanging structures in India. It was constructed of special teak wood, iron and wires imported from England by the erstwhile ruler of Morbi, Thakore Vaghe, some 180 years back.
Due to its unique design and cultural value, the bridge has almost become synonymous with the industrial town of Morbi in Rajkot district.
The bridge connecting Barbargadh Palace to Nazarbaug was in operation till 1979 when a devastating cyclone struck this town. Since then, several repairs have taken place, but due to its deteriorating condition, the Rajkot district administration closed the bridge to save this famous Saurashtra landmark from complete collapse.
The Rajkot collectorate’s call for the public-private participation for the renovation of Julto Pul received a favourable response from the Morbi-based Ajanta Group, who are among the country’s leading wall-clock and tile manufacturers.
“The Julto Pul is being renovated at a cost of Rs 1 crore. The entire expense has been borne by the Ajanta Group. This time, superior quality material has been used to give the bridge at-least 10 years’ relief from wear and tear,” said Rajkot District Collector Pradeep Sharma.
Sharma said over 90 per cent of the repair work has been completed and the Julto Pul is likely to be reopened for the public from January 27. The district administration is, however, yet to decide whether to declare it as a tourist site, or to open it for regular traffic. “It is yet to be decided whether it should be reopened just as a tourist site or also allow commuters on the bridge,” said Sharma
The Julto Pul was constructed over a span of four years starting 1883. The bridge is 756-feet long and 4.6-feet wide. The main wooden lane has now been replaced with aluminium composite sheet, which is not only durable, but more lightweight compared to teak. The wooden support beams have also been replaced with weatherproof aluminium channels. To give it a complete weatherproof effect, the sheets and channels are being coated with high temperature aluminium paint.
Our local Porsche Club, the Coastal Empire Region held their annual Christmas party at the dealership last night. It was a great turn out with wonderful food and drink. Everyone brought a toy for the Toy’s for Tot’s program. They also announced the results of this years election of new board members. Buddy Brown was elected President, David Grandt Vice President, Conard White Secretary and Basil Mathews Treasurer.

Transcript:
SPEAKER: GEICO has developed itself as being the new thing.
SPEAKER: Every time our marketing team comes out with a new marketing campaign, it’s always like the number one talked about advertisement on TV or the radio.
SPEAKER: GEICO is a household name. Everybody knows the GEICO Gecko. They think I come to work with the Gecko each day.
SPEAKER: That just opens the door though for our customers. And once they call us, they see that we’re not just commercials, we’re not just entertainment, we’re a solid professional insurance company.
SPEAKER: GEICO is the fastest growing insurance company in the industry.
SPEAKER: We are in a period of enormous business success and have been for the last number of years. We enjoy the heck out of it, but we don’t take it for granted.
SPEAKER: Our approach to become a number one is very aggressive.
SPEAKER: Our drive to focus on the customer is definitely setting us apart from our competitors. We don’t just advertise having a great price, but we also can provide great service.
SPEAKER: You have to be able to change with customer needs, even anticipate customer needs. And not just what your customer wants today, but what they might want tomorrow or a year from now. Being part of a winning team means you have to be able to deal with change as it comes.
SPEAKER: We know something about longevity, we know something about stability. We’re in a business that isn’t going away. People will continue to need automobile insurance forever.
SPEAKER: For the past few years we’ve been promoting about a quarter of our associates every year. Everyday I feel like I get an email that somebody is getting promoted.
SPEAKER: We have certain job functions, certain responsibilities where you can make a very logical, systematic progression, and at the other hand, the nice thing about GEICO is you can spend a long career here and have many different careers without even having to leave the company.
SPEAKER: Whether it’s through sales or our customer service department or in claims. You can be an actuary, a product manager, you can work in IT. It’s such a big company that there’s so much to do.
SPEAKER: There’s a lot of classes that GEICO offers and it helps you move from one position to another.
SPEAKER: Since I’ve been at GEICO I’ve had the opportunity to take classes for my current job, for the job that I’d like to get some time, and also develop basic skills in myself, such as public speaking or working on different Microsoft applications. Learning about different moral or ethical dilemmas that I might encounter in the business world. Learning about relevant legislation that might impact my job as well.
SPEAKER: We’re all very very friendly, we’re diverse. There’s high school graduates, college graduates that join us, and then there’s more experienced associates. This is their second or third career at GEICO.
SPEAKER: We make it easy for every associate to see the impact that they’re actually making towards the company.
SPEAKER: Our supervisors and managers really do a good job of giving you really good feedback and telling you where this project is leading or how this is going to help our profitability or our growth.
SPEAKER: Through different projects that I was involved in, I feel like I’m making the system more efficient. I’m cutting the cost down for the customers and bringing more customer satisfaction.
SPEAKER: Our number one operating principal here at GEICO is to provide opportunities for our associates. So there’s something to be said about a company that puts their associates and their success first.
SPEAKER: As a company we’re interested in what the customer wants.
SPEAKER: Our goal as a company is to please a customer so much that when they’re done talking to GEICO, they feel so excited about that, they’ll go out and they’ll tell their friend or family member about the wonderful interaction they had with GEICO.
SPEAKER: To do this job you have to be able to care about your policy holders and your non-policy holders.
SPEAKER: Every person we quote, every claim we adjust, we know that the impact on the person that’s not currently with us can define whether or not they will actually ever try us.
SPEAKER: It isn’t a transaction that we’re dealing with with the customer, it’s an interaction.
SPEAKER: Whether we get a sales call or whether we get a service call how are we talking to our customers? Are we making it easy for them?
SPEAKER: And when it comes to customer service, it doesn’t begin and end with just talking to someone on the phone or interacting with a policy holder face to face. Customer service to us also means how we treat each other. The department’s interaction on a daily basis. Everyone is our customer as far as GEICO is concerned. And so we also focus on giving great customer service to each other.
SPEAKER: The type of person I feel is going to be very successful is one that comes in with a great attitude and a desire to do well. Come in with that great attitude because it’s going to show in your performance on a day to day basis. Not just being content on, OK this is my job, this is what I’m going to do. But what is that next step where it’s actually going to take you to be more successful?
SPEAKER: We’re in a people business. We want folks to be good team players, to link up with their colleagues to make positive change here. We want them to have superior interactions with our customers. And you genuinely got to like people to be able to successfully do that.
SPEAKER: Associates here work hard and play hard.
SPEAKER: There’s a lot of hard work involved. We have high expectations of all of our associates. But there is no reason why we can’t do all of that and at the same time have fun.
SPEAKER: You really enjoy coming to work every day. There’s always a party when it’s somebody’s five year anniversary or their 10-year, 25- or 35-years.
SPEAKER: We have luncheons and celebrations every time we have successful projects go in.
SPEAKER: Some of the opportunities or activities that are available to our associates include sports teams through GEICO, softball, basketball.
SPEAKER: Different cultural events. We promote different ethnic groups to come out and demonstrate their cultural background.
SPEAKER: GEICO’s presence in the community always means that there are a lot of opportunities for associates to get involved.
SPEAKER: We participate in causes such as the United Way.
SPEAKER: The Relay for Life.
SPEAKER: Habitat for Humanity projects.
SPEAKER: The Big Brother Big Sister program.
SPEAKER: We support Special Olympics.
SPEAKER: The Red Cross’ blood donation event.
SPEAKER: American Cancer Society.
SPEAKER: A lot of the charities that we sponsor and a lot of the public events that we’re involved in, they start at the associate level. If an associate has a particular idea, they bring that to their work and they decide they want to run with it, and the company encourages that.
SPEAKER: There are programs where management will support the cause and actually match contributions.
SPEAKER: It isn’t all about taking from a community where you have a facility. It isn’t about you know, even on a larger basis, the national basis, just taking and taking. You have to give back. And especially a company as fortunate, as successful as we are, you don’t even think about it. It’s just the right thing to do.
SPEAKER: I made GEICO my career choice because it was an opportunity for me to grow.
SPEAKER: Once I got here I immediately felt a sense of belonging. I immediately felt peace of mind. I finally felt that a company is going to do as much for me as I was going to do for them.
SPEAKER: Because if you work hard at GEICO, we are going to reward you.
SPEAKER: The folks who come through the door, the new associates who come through the door understand that I’m going to work hard. I’m going to make sacrifices. I’m going to invest myself in this company and truly invest all that needs to invest. They’re the ones who end up 10 years down the road, 15, 20 years down the road having these enormous careers and all kinds of success well beyond what they ever thought they would do.
SPEAKER: I’ve been here for 15 years at GEICO. The time has gone by really quickly. I enjoy what I do, it’s very exciting. Everyday is different.
SPEAKER: Still to this day I still find the work that I do interesting and challenging. I’m going to learn something new today. I’m going to get involved with something today that I haven’t done before, and it just makes life great.

Share these with your young driver! Here’s a few tips to keep them safer on the road.
1: Keep your headlights on, even during the day. It helps other drivers to spot you easier.
2: Increase your following distance. New drivers often have a hard time judging distance. Giving the car ahead some extra space allows more time to react and stop in case of an emergency.
3: Travel slowly in poor weather. Even in rain traction is drastically reduced. Slowing for corners is especially important.
4: Make sure your car is ready for all kinds of weather. Check your tires, anti-freeze, washer fluid, and make sure your oil is fresh. Consider purchasing snow tires for the winter months.
5: Don’t let your gas get too low. You don’t want to be stranded on the side of the road! Also, fuel pumps can become strained when your tank has less fuel in it.

In traffic collision reports, a violation of California Vehicle Code Section 23103 is one of the Vehicle Code Sections that can be cited as being the primary collision factor for an auto accident in California. This is true whether the accident only caused injuries or if the accident was a fatal accident which caused one or more fatalities. Although a traffic collision report is not evidence, insurance companies treat them as if they are.
California Vehicle Code Section 23103 provides:
23103. (a) A person who drives a vehicle upon a highway in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property is guilty of reckless driving. (b) A person who drives a vehicle in an offstreet parking facility, as defined in subdivision (c) of Section 12500, in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property is guilty of reckless driving. (c) Persons convicted of the offense of reckless driving shall be punished by imprisonment in a county jail for not less than five days nor more than 90 days or by a fine of not less than one hundred forty-five dollars ($145) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment, except as provided in Section 23104 or 23105.
When a Police or CHP Officer, or a Sheriff’s Deputy states in his or her report either that the primary collision factor in an auto accident was one party’s violation of a certain vehicle code section such as the one above, and that one of the parties is at fault for violating that code section, the Officer or Deputy is stating what he or she believes to be the underlying cause of the accident.
The reason insurance companies treat the collision reports as if they are admissible evidence is that they know if put on the witness stand, the investigating officer or deputy will almost always testify in a manner consistent with the conclusions in his or her report. That testimony becomes evidence and will often sway a jury in their determination of fault for an accident.
While an investigating officer’s job is to determine if there was a violation of the law and not to determine who should be at fault in a civil dispute such as a car accident claim, insurance companies often view these two determinations as one and the same.
A police officer assigned to investigate the scene of an accident does not have the role that a trier of fact does in a courtroom. The officer is not there to render a verdict and determine who is responsible for the damages. Rather, the officer is there to determine if any laws were broken. The officer makes such a determination based on his or her having seen the damage to the vehicles, and having spoken to the drivers and the witnesses when their memories are freshest. He or she is thus often in a position to make a well-educated determination of who caused the accident.
Unfortunately, despite the experience of most investigating officers who are dispatched to the scene of an accident, sometimes mistakes are made by these officers. Quite often one or both parties to an accident will lie to them and an officer or deputy will not always be able to determine which of the parties is telling the truth. The evidence from the scene, while important, may also be misleading as to what actually occurred to cause the accident.
If you’ve been injured in an auto, truck, motorcycle, bike, pedestrian or car accident, or if you’ve lost a loved one in a wrongful death vehicle accident, call our offices for a free personal injury consultation by phone. You can also e-mail Attorney Sebastian Gibson at SgibsonEsq@aol.com Additionally, we invite you to visit the Sebastian Gibson law firm website for more information at www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com
Sometimes an Officer or Deputy cannot determine with any degree of certainty which party was at fault and will cite two possible Vehicle Code Sections, one for each party in a two-party collision, that may have been violated. In that case, the Police or CHP Officer or Deputy will often state that the primary collision factor is unknown.
Even if there are witnesses to an accident, the Officer of Deputy may discount the statements of some or all of the witnesses if they were friends or relatives of one of the drivers.
Although, as stated above, the conclusion of fault by an officer or deputy does not carry the same weight as a determination of fault by a judge or jury, the importance of the citation of this or any other California code section in the police report is that insurance companies treat the conclusions in these traffic collision reports in a great majority of cases as if the conclusions were written in stone and evaluate a party’s claim based on the findings of fault in these reports.
A traffic collision report may be amended by the police department or the CHP where it contains obvious mistakes, such as when the officer or deputy has mixed up the names of the parties. Supplemental reports are sometimes written when new evidence comes to light, such as when a hit and run party is located. But for the most part, most police departments, Sheriff’s offices and the California Highway Patrol will not amend a report when a party complains and states why he or she doesn’t feel they should have been found at fault for a collision. They will, however, in most cases allow a person to fill out a Counter Report, which, unfortunately simply does not carry much weight with an insurance company.
If the Primary Collision Factor for an accident is unknown, one should look on the traffic collision report to see if the Police or California Highway Patrol Officer or Sheriff’s Deputy cited any “Other Associated Factors” in the traffic collision report as having had a role to play in causing the collision. There may have been faulty equipment, as with some truck accidents, or the roadway itself may have been dangerous.
If you’ve been injured in an auto accident in California that has been determined by the investigating Police or CHP Officer or a Sheriff’s Deputy to be the fault of another driver as a result of his or her violation of Vehicle Code Section 23103, call the Law Offices of Sebastian Gibson as soon after an accident as possible before important evidence disappears, such as skid marks that are washed away with the rain.
At the Law Firm of Sebastian Gibson, we specialize in California auto accidents caused by violations of the California Vehicle Code, such as this section 23103, and will represent you to obtain the compensation you deserve for your injuries.
In over thirty years of practice, Attorney Sebastian Gibson has obtained millions of dollars in settlements and multiple million dollar or larger settlements. We handle auto accident cases on a contingency fee basis so there is no fee payable unless we win your case and obtain either a settlement, an arbitration, mediation, jury, judge or court award.
Due to how insurance companies treat individuals without an attorney, a person injured in an auto accident will almost always receive a greater amount from a settlement, even after attorneys’ fees, if the case is handled from the start by an experienced and reputable personal injury lawyer.
If you’ve been injured in an auto accident, call to speak with a lawyer at our offices for a free personal injury consultation by phone. You can speak to Attorney Sebastian Gibson personally by phone or you can e-mail Sebastian Gibson at SgibsonEsq@aol.com

A violation of California Vehicle Code Section 22454 is one of the Vehicle Code Sections that can be cited as being the primary collision factor for an auto accident in California. This is true whether the accident only caused injuries or if the accident was a fatal accident which caused one or more fatalities.
California Vehicle Code Section 22454 provides:
22454. (a) The driver of any vehicle, upon meeting or overtaking, from either direction, any schoolbus equipped with signs as required in this code, that is stopped for the purpose of loading or unloading any schoolchildren and displays a flashing red light signal and stop signal arm, as defined in paragraph (4) of subdivision (b) of Section 25257, if equipped with a stop signal arm, visible from front or rear, shall bring the vehicle to a stop immediately before passing the schoolbus and shall not proceed past the schoolbus until the flashing red light signal and stop signal arm, if equipped with a stop signal arm, cease operation. (b) (1) The driver of a vehicle upon a divided highway or multiple-lane highway need not stop upon meeting or passing a schoolbus that is upon the other roadway. (2) For the purposes of this subdivision, a multiple-lane highway is any highway that has two or more lanes of travel in each direction. (c) (1) If a vehicle was observed overtaking a schoolbus in violation of subdivision (a), and the driver of the schoolbus witnessed the violation, the driver may, within 24 hours, report the violation and furnish the vehicle license plate number and description and the time and place of the violation to the local law enforcement agency having jurisdiction of the offense. That law enforcement agency shall issue a letter of warning prepared in accordance with paragraph (2) with respect to the alleged violation to the registered owner of the vehicle. The issuance of a warning letter under this paragraph shall not be entered on the driving record of the person to whom it is issued, but does not preclude the imposition of any other applicable penalty. (2) The Attorney General shall prepare and furnish to every law enforcement agency in the state a form letter for purposes of paragraph (1), and the law enforcement agency may issue those letters in the exact form prepared by the Attorney General. The Attorney General may charge a fee to any law enforcement agency that requests a copy of the form letter to recover the costs of preparing and providing that copy. (d) This section also applies to a roadway upon private property.
When a Police or CHP Officer, or a Sheriff’s Deputy states in his or her report either that the primary collision factor in an auto accident was one party’s violation of a certain vehicle code section such as the one above, and that one of the parties is at fault for violating that code section, the Officer or Deputy is stating what he or she believes to be the underlying cause of the accident.

Although the conclusion of fault by an officer or deputy does not carry the same weight as a determination of fault by a judge or jury, the importance of the citation of this or any other California code section in the police report is that insurance companies treat the conclusions in these traffic collision reports in a great majority of cases as if the conclusions were written in stone and evaluate a party’s claim based on the findings of fault in these reports.
A traffic collision report may be amended by the police department or the CHP where it contains obvious mistakes, such as when the officer or deputy has mixed up the names of the parties. Supplemental reports are sometimes written when new evidence comes to light, such as when a hit and run party is located. But for the most part, most police departments, Sheriff’s offices and the California Highway Patrol will not amend a report when a party complains and states why he or she doesn’t feel they should have been found at fault for a collision. They will, however, in most cases allow a person to fill out a Counter Report, which, unfortunately simply does not carry much weight with an insurance company.
If the Primary Collision Factor for an accident is unknown, one should look on the traffic collision report to see if the Police or California Highway Patrol Officer or Sheriff’s Deputy cited any “Other Associated Factors” in the traffic collision report as having had a role to play in causing the collision. There may have been faulty equipment, as with some truck accidents, or the roadway itself may have been dangerous.
