Safety Tips for Drivers Sharing the Road with Trucks
Trucks operate differently than other vehicles due to their massive size and weight. When driving alongside a truck, there is a risk of being crushed if the truck loses control or needs to change lanes quickly. Trucks also have large blind spots where the driver cannot see, so it is important to avoid driving in these areas. Drivers should leave enough space between their vehicle and a truck in case the truck needs to change lanes or turn, to avoid the risk of collision. When changing lanes near a truck, there is a risk of entering the truck's blind spot or the truck being unable to stop in time if it needs to.

Flatbed Truck Accidents - Things You Need To Know
A flatbed truck is a tractor-trailer or truck with an open flat bed used to carry equipment and cargo. Common causes of flatbed truck accidents include improperly secured loads that shift during transport and collisions with other vehicles. Loads that are too high can cause stability issues for the truck. Drivers are responsible for securely fastening loads and periodically checking them, but accidents can still occur if loads shift suddenly during braking. When flatbed trucks collide with smaller vehicles, the smaller vehicle often sustains major damage or can even be crushed due to the height difference between vehicles. Negligence of truckers in properly securing loads and checking them can lead to serious accidents resulting in death, injuries, and property loss.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentation
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.
