Wirkungsvolle Schutzsysteme für Motorradfahrer zu entwickeln, ist höchst kompliziert. Anders als im Auto können die Bewegungen des Fahrers bei einem Motorrad-Crash nur schwer vorausberechnet werden. Schutzsysteme direkt am Körper des Motorradfahrers sind deshalb die beste Möglichkeit, schwerste und tödliche Verletzungen zu verhindern oder zumindest zu reduzieren. Aus diesem Grund hat der ADAC zwei sogenannte Airbagwesten im Crash-Verhalten getestet.
Hearkening back to the glory days of purebred, affordable sports cars, Kia Motors America (KMA) today unveiled the brand’s most aggressive concept car ever when wraps came off the GT4 Stinger at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). Kia’s eye-catching design language moves in a bold new direction with the introduction of the GT4 Stinger. The concept pushes the boundaries of performance with a rear-drive 2+2 sports car that places man and machine in harmony on the road or track. It comes as no surprise that the GT4 Stinger is the wild style child of Kia’s California design team, home to its 2012 predecessor, the Track’ster concept. And like the Track’ster, the GT4 Stinger’s racy appeal is more than skin deep.

Auf der wichtigsten internationalen Automesse der Welt bemühen sich alle Auto-Hersteller besonders zu glänzen. So ist klar, dass sich auf der Frankfurter IAA Premiere an Premiere reiht, denn Neuheiten stehen in der Publikumsgunst ganz vorne.

Bei der Vielzahl der Weltpremieren ist nur eine kleine Auswahl möglich. Bei den Serienfahrzeugen sorgen unter anderem der Mercedes GLA, der BMW i3, der Peugeot 308 für Furore. Bei den Concept Cars sind es der Opel Monza, der Infiniti Q30, der Lexus LN-XF, das Volvo Coupé, der smart Fourjoy, der Citroen Cactus und der Renault Initiale Paris für besonderes Interesse. Nicht zuletzt, weil etliche dieser Studien schon bald und nur leicht verändert auf den Markt kommen werden.

Finding yourself stranded in your car due to treacherous conditions like snow, ice, poor visibility and slick roads only to discover you have junk in the trunk, rather than the necessary roadside emergency supplies, can place you and your family in jeopardy.
According to a new survey by State Farm® and KRC Research, more than 60 percent of drivers had some sort of “junk” (non-emergency supplies) in their trunk ranging from extra clothes and shoes to used food or drink containers. While 99 percent of drivers had at least one emergency supply in their vehicle, such as spare tire or jumper cables, a mere nine percent carried all the essential emergency roadside supplies.

A coalition of community, labor and good-government organizations is calling on the U.S. Office of Government Ethics to investigate presidential candidate Mitt Romney for noncompliance with the Ethics in Government Act and compel him to either disclose his investments or divest them.
A letter sent today to Don W. Fox, general counsel of the Office of Government Ethics, states that Gov. Romney “has not even attempted to meet the requirements for a federal blind trust with respect to his substantial equity holdings. The only way for this law to be enforced in a meaningful way is for your Office to act promptly to demand that candidate Romney disclose his stock holdings, or divest them if disclosure is not feasible.”
