Escondido Truck Accident Lawyer’s Top Ten Things to Say to Get Your Trucking Company Angry After a Truck Accident

1. Don’t worry. I threw away the truck log book.

 

2. They impounded the truck for a measly brake problem.

 

3. No, I wasn’t drinking. Not at that precise moment.

 

4. You drive straight for two days and see how alert you are.

 

5. Could have been worse. I only smashed two cars this time.

 

6. No there weren’t any girls in the truck. Not at that precise moment.

 

7. I do truck repairs all the time. At least when I have the money.

 

8. No, I was not asleep at the wheel. I was reading a map, if you must know.

 

9. I don’t suppose you have another truck I can drive while this one is being examined.

 

10. No there won’t be any more surprises. Not unless the police do a more thorough examination of the truck.

Here are ten actual tips of advice from a truck accident lawyer to follow if you have been in an accident. You can also learn more about how to handle a personal injury in Escondido, or any city, by calling the Law Offices of R. Sebastian Gibson at any of the numbers which can be found on our website at http://www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com  and learning how we can assist you.

 

Obviously, if you have had an accident, and you are reading all of this advice, it may have been a few hours since the accident. However, if you ever have another accident, or if it’s only been a few hours since you were hurt, here’s what you should do from the start.

 

First, take a look around and determine if you or anyone, are hurt. If so, taking steps like trying to prevent further injury or loss of blood are the most important thing you can do. Even if some other driver caused you to be injured, it’s just good manners to help the other driver if they are hurt. They may even be so thankful that they admit their fault to you. The worst thing you can do is get angry or start a fight.

 

Second, make sure everyone is safe from being injured further. If you are in the middle of traffic, and you are dizzy, sit down away from traffic. If your vehicle is a traffic hazard and you have accident warning devices like flares or triangles, put them out on the road to warn other drivers and get away from the car. Let the police an other emergency personnel investigate the scene with the vehicles in place and move them more safely at a later point.

 

Third, call the police. Accident reports are extremely helpful if the police will do such a report. Let the police know you are injured immediately. Answer the police questions honestly. But if you are dazed or confused, let them know you need medical treatment and answer only what you feel sure about. Remember, your statements can and will be used against you if you admit fault, and it will be too late and too fishy to later say you didn’t know what you were saying at the scene. Police know that your best recollection is immediately after an accident.

 

Fourth, get the other driver’s information including their names, addresses, driver’s license numbers, make and model of their vehicles, license plate numbers, and their insurance company name and policy number. If there are witnesses, get their names, addresses and telephone numbers as well. If the other driver makes any admissions of fault, write those down as well.

 

Fifth, if you have a camera on your cell phone or in the car and you aren’t too injured, take some photos of the vehicles and the scene. If you can’t do it right away, do it after you are released from the hospital.

Sixth, if you are hurt, obtain medical treatment. Don’t decline the ambulance or hospital examination to save your insurance company money or to be stoic. Take your valuables out of your car if you can and get checked out at the hospital. If you are not hurt, don’t get treatment you don’t need. However, remember, after an accident, you may feel a rush of adrenaline that causes you to only start feeling symptoms of pain a few hours later. If you have a health plan that requires you to obtain permission first, call them and find out where you are allowed to seek treatment.

 

Seventh, call a good truck accident lawyer as soon as you have had your initial treatment, so the attorney can gather other important evidence and prevent the insurance company from taking advantage of you and obtaining such things as recorded statements that you feel fine, when many of your symptoms have yet to manifest themselves. A good truck accident lawyer can save you from making a great deal of mistakes and can shoulder much of the hassle of knowing what to do about car repairs, car rentals, medical treatment, witness statements and the like. If you think you will save money by not having an attorney, think again. A good truck accident lawyer can almost always obtain much higher settlements, obtain reductions of medical bills and insurance liens and prevent you from making costly mistakes. Also, most truck accident attorneys advance costs of obtaining police reports, medical records and the like and are paid and reimbursed for these costs only out of any settlement.

 

Eight, you will need to report the accident to your insurance company, but since they will want to take a recorded statement from you, just like any other driver’s insurance company, it’s good advice to retain an attorney first. And if the other driver did not have insurance, remember that it is your own insurance company that will be your adversary. You will also need to report the accident to the Department of Motor Vehicles and your lawyer can give you the form for this.

 

Ninth, do not agree to settle your claim privately with the person at fault for the accident. This almost never works out to your advantage. Don’t agree not to call the police. Police reports that determine the fault for an accident are golden. Your agreement to not involve the police only affords an opportunity for the other driver to change his story and blame you when the police will no longer investigate the accident.

 

Tenth, don’t pay a traffic ticket without a fight if you weren’t at fault or agree to accept a small payment for your vehicle repairs without knowing that the amount will in fact cover the cost of all the repairs.

After four decades, a true Welcome Home

Castle Rock, CO – 8/8/2009

The Douglas County Colorado County Fair Parade was held on Saturday morning beginning at 10 AM. Several thousand people turned out for this annual affair, lining the streets of downtown Castle Rock to watch the entries and floats go by. I had the opportunity to march in the parade with the American Legion. I held the United States Navy flag, as I have in the past. We military veterans marched through the streets and the crowd applauded. Many young families on the route would hold their hands over their hearts. Shouts of “Thank You” could be heard all along the parade route. As a Vietnam Veteran, this never ceases to have an emotional effect on me. This year during our march, however, my mind raced back over 40 years to another time and place.

On June 28, 1968, the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk steamed slowly into San Diego bay on a quiet morning with overcast skies. As is the Navy tradition, I was standing at parade rest on the edge of the ship with my fellow sailors as we “manned the rail” to enter port. I had done this many times in my Navy career. We had been gone the greater part of a year, serving in combat operations for the Vietnam War. A number of our crew had lost their lives fighting the communist forces of North Vietnam.

Usually, a carrier’s return from a cruise is a huge festive occasion. With a crew of about 5,000, that is a whole lot of family reunion with hugs and kisses. There are usually lots of ships and small boats in the harbor to greet us, with horns blasting, people waving, and shouts of greeting and recognition.

Not this time.

It was quite eery to man the rail this time. I kept thinking “Where are the boats?”. I could hear the waves as they hit the ship but it was deathly quiet. Finally, through the mist, I could see one small boat approach our ship. The ocean was moderately choppy and the boat was tossed about as it approached. The boat held an older, retired couple with the wife operating the boat controls and her husband standing precariously on the bow. He was holding up a handmade sign that had two words written on it.

“Welcome Home”.

The boat cut its throttle as we passed and we sailors looked down at this tired, old man holding up the sign. Nobody said anything as we steamed slowly past.

This had been a momentous cruise for the Kitty Hawk. We were in hot offensive operations for months at a time. My work schedule was 18 hours on, 6 off for a period of 67 straight days during one stretch. In January of 1968, the enemy launched the Tet offensive which created great havoc for months. On January 23, 1968 the USS Pueblo was captured by the North Korean communists and our two sister carriers on Yankee Station rushed up to Korea, leaving the Kitty Hawk to go it alone in the Tonkin gulf. Daily we would send “Alpha Strikes” of a hundred or so aircraft at a coordinated target and not all would return.

When we got finally got relieved by another carrier, we were allowed to return to our home port in San Diego and were greeted by this strange sight of quiet and stillness. When we finally disembarked, I found out why. Because of violent, angry anti-war protests, the navy base had been put on lock down for our return. There was no crowd, no cheering, no noise. We silently left the ship and I got on a bus to the airport. As required, I was in Navy whites. When I got off the bus with my fellow sailors, there were young college age kids holding signs protesting everything we had done for the past year in Vietnam.

The signs said we were evil. We were predatory. We were killers of innocent civilians. As we got off the bus to enter the terminal, one young woman made eye contact with me and raised her voice a few decibels in derision. I at first ignored her, but as she “got in my face” I decided to speak back to her. She didn’t have any personal knowledge of what we had been through. Had never been there. Only knew what she saw on television. She tried to spit in my face but hit my arm instead. I went into the terminal and got in line to go home. This was my Welcome Home that day in 1968.

After a few weeks leave and two months of shore duty, I deployed overseas again, this time on a Mediterranean Cruise on a different carrier. That December of 1968, in the waning days of his presidency, President Lyndon Johnson signed a Presidential Unit Citation (“PUC”) for the Kitty Hawk and her crew from his hospital bed in Bethesda Naval Hospital. It would be formally awarded in January. I heard about it some time later, while overseas.

The Presidential Unit Citation, originally called the Distinguished Unit Citation, is awarded to units of the Armed Forces of the United States and allies for extraordinary heroism in action against an armed enemy. The degree of heroism required is the same as that which would warrant award of the Distinguished Service Cross, Air Force Cross or Navy Cross to an individual.

When I finally got a copy of the PUC, I read the details. “9 Jan 1969: The Presidential Unit Citation, covering 23 Dec 1967–1 Jun 1968, was awarded to the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk and CVW-11 for their exceptional performance during the fierce fighting of the enemy’s Tet Offensive, in part noting that they “succeeded in inflicting extensive damage and destruction to sites and installations vital to the enemy’s operations.” Admiral Hyland noted during the award ceremony: “The ship is recognized in professional circles as having been on Yankee Station during the toughest part of the war and against the most heavily defended area in the world.” Kitty Hawk launched 185 major strikes, 150 of them against northern North Vietnam, hitting the Hanoi and Haiphong areas 65 times. Due to fluid enemy tactics additional emphasis was placed upon “lucrative targets of a fleeting nature.”

The Kitty Hawk was the first carrier ever to receive the PUC.

By the time I returned home from the Mediterranean, I was ready to leave the Navy and go to college. I had done three cruises, with the first two to Vietnam. I applied to college while overseas and was admitted to a college close to my permanent duty station. In 1970, I left the Navy and began my civilian life. Like so many fellow veterans, I didn’t talk about my Navy days except to other veterans. I only began to talk about and publicly demonstrate my Navy career when the first Gulf War began under President Bush 41. The decades from that June day in 1968 had brought a lot of wisdom, kindness and understanding to our national psyche and I have been treated with dignity and respect ever since.

Now, to walk in the Douglas County parade, holding our flag high and be greeted with cheers and shouts by thousands of Americans is one of the great thrills and honors of my life. I am so proud to be an American, to have served my country, to have done my share. But in midst of it all, I still see that old tired man balancing on the small boat holding up his handmade sign.

Welcome Home.

3 Steps to Effectively Use Probiotics After Taking Acne Antibiotics

 

 

After getting acne under control, the first thing on your mind is probably socializing, shopping and generally leaving your skin related health woes behind. But if antibiotics were apart of your acne axing regime, you may want probiotics to be apart of your acne-afterlife.

 

Patricia Raymond, a gastroenterologist and assistant professor at Eastern Virginia Medical School, finds that antibiotic usage can negatively impact the colon. Raymond explains, “As antibiotics work to treat a disease, they also kill off healthy micro-organisms in the gastrointestinal tract, paving the way for harmful bacteria to take over.”

 

Probiotics are bacteria that co-exist in the colon with so-called “bad” colon bacteria. About 100 trillion microorganisms populate a healthy bowel. Probiotics balance the pathogen (harmful microorganisms) count, aid digestion and nutrient absorption, and facilitate immune function.

 

If the number of probiotics drops significantly- due to acne antibiotic usage- other health problems like diarrhea and irritable bowel syndrome could result.

 

You can restore probiotic stability after a series of acne antibiotics in three simple steps.

 

1. Eat foods that help probiotics thrive

 

2. Minimize your stress level

 

3. Take the right probiotics in the right proportions

 

1.Eat foods that help probiotics thrive

 

Gary Huffnagle, PhD, of the University of Michigan Health System, is a pioneering researcher into the world of probiotics. Huffnagle recommends supporting probiotic growth by increasing the amount of cultured dairy products you eat, such as cheeses and yogurt.

 

To encourage probiotics from these dairy products to multiply even further, Huffnagle suggests consuming foods like spices, tea, red wine, berries, apples and beans.

 

2.Minimize your stress level

 

Not only should you minimize stress because research teams at Wake Forrest University discovered that stress aggravates acne prone skin, but stress also weakens the colon where probiotics need to work. Research has implicated chronic stress in the development of irritable bowel syndrome and in the worsening of inflammatory bowel disease symptoms.

 

Moreover, stress sensitizes the gut which increases the likelihood of yet another acne culprit– developing allergies to certain foods. Reducing your stress level while using probiotic therapy will allow the helpful bacteria to flourish while preempting acne outbreaks.

 

3.Take the right probiotics in the right proportions

 

Pharmacist and complementary medicine advocate Dr. Author Presser says the important intestinal bacteria include Bifidobacteria, Lactobacillus (L.) Acidophilus, L. Rhamnosus, L. Plantrarum, L. Bulgaricus, Streptococcus Faecium and Streptococcus Thermophilus. Presser recommends taking probiotic supplements that contain all seven bacteria. In his book, The Nature Pharmacist’s Vitamin Primer, Presser points out, “look for a product that contains FOS, fructooligosacchrides.”

 

Presser explains that FOS are sugars found in fruits, vegetables and grains. Microflora metabolize and multiply on fructooligosacchrides both in the intestine and in the tablet.

 

Likewise, the Harvard Women’s Health Watch has three more tips for anyone shopping for probiotics:

 

• The recommended doses range from 1 billion to 10 billion colony-forming units (CFU)-the amount contained in a capsule or two-several days per week.

 

• A daily supplement for one to two weeks may improve conditions such as infectious or antibiotic-related diarrhea.

 

• The microorganisms in probiotic supplements need to be alive when you take them (or when they’re freeze-dried for capsules). They may die on exposure to heat, moisture, or air. Some require refrigeration. Read the supplement label for proper storage instructions.

 

Even though probiotic therapy may appear extraneous after an intense acne regime, just remember that these microflora may also prevent future zit eruptions.

Oceanside Pedestrian Accident Lawyer’s Top Ten Statements Made to the Paramedics After a Pedestrian Accident

1. Don’t give me any shots.

 

2. Can you take me off of this board? It’s killing me.

 

3. Where are you idiots taking me?

 

4. Can you hit any other pot holes?

 

5. Haven’t you got any morphine?

 

6. Are we there yet?

 

7. How much is this going to cost me?

 

8. A taxi would have been a lot cheaper, huh?

 

9. Are you guys doctors?

 

10. Got any food in this lunch wagon?

 

Here are ten actual tips of advice from a pedestrian accident lawyer to follow if you have been in an accident. You can also learn more about how to handle a personal injury in Oceanside, or any city, by calling the Law Offices of R. Sebastian Gibson at any of the numbers which can be found on our website at http://www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com  and learning how we can assist you.

 

Obviously, if you have had an accident, and you are reading all of this advice, it may have been a few hours since the accident. However, if you ever have another accident, or if it’s only been a few hours since you were hurt, here’s what you should do from the start.

 

First, take a look around and determine if you or anyone, are hurt. If so, taking steps like trying to prevent further injury or loss of blood are the most important thing you can do. Even if some other driver caused you to be injured, it’s just good manners to help the other driver if they are hurt. They may even be so thankful that they admit their fault to you. The worst thing you can do is get angry or start a fight.

 

Second, make sure everyone is safe from being injured further. If you are in the middle of traffic, and you are dizzy, sit down away from traffic. If your vehicle is a traffic hazard and you have accident warning devices like flares or triangles, put them out on the road to warn other drivers and get away from the car. Let the police an other emergency personnel investigate the scene with the vehicles in place and move them more safely at a later point.

 

Third, call the police. Accident reports are extremely helpful if the police will do such a report. Let the police know you are injured immediately. Answer the police questions honestly. But if you are dazed or confused, let them know you need medical treatment and answer only what you feel sure about. Remember, your statements can and will be used against you if you admit fault, and it will be too late and too fishy to later say you didn’t know what you were saying at the scene. Police know that your best recollection is immediately after an accident.

 

Fourth, get the other driver’s information including their names, addresses, driver’s license numbers, make and model of their vehicles, license plate numbers, and their insurance company name and policy number. If there are witnesses, get their names, addresses and telephone numbers as well. If the other driver makes any admissions of fault, write those down as well.

 

Fifth, if you have a camera on your cell phone or in the car and you aren’t too injured, take some photos of the vehicles and the scene. If you can’t do it right away, do it after you are released from the hospital.

 

Sixth, if you are hurt, obtain medical treatment. Don’t decline the ambulance or hospital examination to save your insurance company money or to be stoic. Take your valuables out of your car if you can and get checked out at the hospital. If you are not hurt, don’t get treatment you don’t need. However, remember, after an accident, you may feel a rush of adrenaline that causes you to only start feeling symptoms of pain a few hours later. If you have a health plan that requires you to obtain permission first, call them and find out where you are allowed to seek treatment.

 

Seventh, call a good pedestrian accident attorney as soon as you have had your initial treatment, so the lawyer can gather other important evidence and prevent the insurance company from taking advantage of you and obtaining such things as recorded statements that you feel fine, when many of your symptoms have yet to manifest themselves. A good pedestrian accident lawyer can save you from making a great deal of mistakes and can shoulder much of the hassle of knowing what to do about car repairs, car rentals, medical treatment, witness statements and the like. If you think you will save money by not having an attorney, think again. A good pedestrian accident lawyer can almost always obtain much higher settlements, obtain reductions of medical bills and insurance liens and prevent you from making costly mistakes. Also, most pedestrian accident attorneys advance costs of obtaining police reports, medical records and the like and are paid and reimbursed for these costs only out of any settlement.

 

Eight, you will need to report the accident to your insurance company, but since they will want to take a recorded statement from you, just like any other driver’s insurance company, it’s good advice to retain an attorney first. And if the other driver did not have insurance, remember that it is your own insurance company that will be your adversary. You will also need to report the accident to the Department of Motor Vehicles and your lawyer can give you the form for this.

 

Ninth, do not agree to settle your claim privately with the person at fault for the accident. This almost never works out to your advantage. Don’t agree not to call the police. Police reports that determine the fault for an accident are golden. Your agreement to not involve the police only affords an opportunity for the other driver to change his story and blame you when the police will no longer investigate the accident.

 

Tenth, don’t pay a traffic ticket without a fight if you weren’t at fault or agree to accept a small payment for your vehicle repairs without knowing that the amount will in fact cover the cost of all the repairs.

Escondido Pedestrian Accident Lawyer’s Top Ten Things People Say That May Make the Police Angry After a Pedestrian Accident

1. Since when does a pedestrian have the right of way if he’s in a crosswalk?

 

2. I am not going back to prison without a fight.

 

3. My doctor told me I should drink red wine.

 

4. I don’t like the way I look when I drive with glasses.

 

5. You cops are all alike. Rules, rules, rules, a gun and a badge.

 

6. If you believe him, you must be one of those liberal tree-huggers.

 

7. Let me put this to you simply. I was driving. He was walking. He should have known when people see a yellow light, they sometimes don’t get through an intersection before the light turns red.

 

8. Is it a crime now to have a couple of drinks after work and a couple more drinks at dinner and drive home after working hard all day?

 

9. He’ll be fine once they put that leg in a cast and sew up his other injuries.

 

10. Handcuffs? Are you friggin out of your mind? Don’t you know who I am?
