The software also has decision-making processes and controls the actions in driver-control systems such as steering and brakes. The car’s…

Then it hit me… it was…

It was a bright summer morning in Big Cypress, Florida. The green palm trees were swaying and the bright blue rivers were peaceful. The long and large alligators were swimming. You could see them bobbing up and down, so all of the tourists could take quick pictures of them. There was a steady flow of people going in and out of the small, worn down nature center. As my family walked out of the car, we took in the sweet scent of Florida in the spring. We all were been in the car for a very long…

Have you ever seen an accident on your way to school and wondered how did that happen or why did that happen? You have seen drivers drive crazy and end up crashing with other drivers, or wondering is it because they do not follow rules or laws? Whether or not there are rules, drivers think this is freedom so that they can do whatever they want. When you drive inexperienced, distracted, under the influence and or rushed, it can be life or death for you and other drivers. First, whenever drivers…

Tom’s the Fiddler Crab Catcher One late afternoon as I look out from a large window where I work, I saw this raggedy white van pulling into the parking lot, as It park towards the north side of the lot I noticed the AC unit protruding from the back door. I changed my attention as a customer came in, I greet him and as usual with his nasty attitude Newport’s one hundred, a blue game and the rest on pump 5.

Track N Go: Drifts Begone! The system we’re watching is Track N Go, developed by AD…

Vehicles roar past me down the street and make strands of hair wrap around my face. There are so many colors that surround me in the autumn atmosphere. Pine and evergreen is the smell that enters my nose as I breath. It looks like the typical autumn season. Looking past the trees and cars I can just vaguely make out indigo triangles in the distance. Better known as the mountains of Colorado. We’ve just came back to visit my family in Colorado and I’m taking a stroll down Sand Trap Way in…
