“It is important to always drive safely and be prepared to deal with dangerous situations,” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that presents the most common causes of car accidents.

Car accidents are very common in the United States and most of them are caused by human error. Although most of the accidents are minor, tens of thousands of lives are lost each year in fatal car crashes. It is important to drive carefully and follow all the traffic laws, in order to avoid being involved in a car accident. The most common causes of accidents in the United States are:


  •     Distracted driving. This is the leading cause of car accidents. In recent times, more and more drivers get distracted and stop paying attention to the road. Texting on the smartphone, or applying makeup while driving, are common sightings nowadays. All it takes are just a few moments of distraction to cause an accident.

  •     Drunk driving. Driving while being drunk is one of the leading causes of accidents in the US. If a driver plans on drinking, he should expect until the drinking effects disappear before he starts driving.

  •     Breaking the speed limits. Speeding is the second most common cause of accidents. Many drivers ignore the speed limits, especially on the highways. The faster someone drives, the slower is his reaction time.

  •     Reckless driving. Drivers that are speeding well over the limit, changing lanes too quickly, or driving aggressively.

  •     Driving in bad weather conditions. Drivers that are driving in dense fog, excessive rain, high winds, slick roads can cause accidents, especially if they are inexperienced or unprepared for the road conditions.

  •     Not stopping while the red light is running. Drivers can cause a serious accident by running a red light. Drivers that are caught running red light say stuff like they were in a hurry reaching to their workplace, or to an important meeting. It is important to remember, that no issue is more important than your own life.

  •     Driving during nighttime. Reduced visibility during nighttime can make obstacles and hazards harder to spot. Drivers should make sure they use the full lights when they are on a road without streetlights and raise their alertness levels.

AM Best Company Revises HAI Group’s Issuer Credit Rating Outlook to Positive and Reaffirms Their ‘A (Excellent)’ Rating

Leave a comment


HAI Group President and Chief Executive Officer Ed Malaspina

2019 has been a year of focusing on our core principles. We continued to be diligent in our underwriting discipline, were thoughtful in our spending, and strengthened our practices in key areas such as claims and enterprise risk management.


CHESHIRE, Conn. (PRWEB)

HAI Group, the nation’s leading member-owned property-casualty insurance company for the affordable housing industry, is proud to announce that AM Best Company has revised the outlook to positive from stable for the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating (Long-Term ICR) and affirmed the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) of A (Excellent) and Long-Term ICR of “a.”

The group rating for HAI Group includes Housing Authority Risk Retention Group, Inc. (HARRG); Housing Authority Property Insurance, A Mutual Company (HAPI); Housing Enterprise Insurance Company, Inc. (HEIC); and Housing Specialty Insurance Company, Inc. (HSIC).

“The ratings reflect HAI Group’s balance sheet strength, which AM Best categorizes as strongest, as well as its marginal operating performance, favorable business profile, and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM),” wrote AM Best Company in a press release announcing the revision. “The revision in the Long-Term ICR outlook to positive is based on HAI Group’s improved operating performance in recent years, driven primarily by favorable loss experience and deliberate expense management, which has led to a return to profitability and surplus growth. The favorable earnings trend is attributed mainly to strong senior leadership, improved underwriting, stricter underwriting and claims handling, stringent risk management practices, and favorable reserve development. In addition, HAI Group’s pre-tax return measures exceed the industry.”

“2019 has been a year of focusing on our core principles,” said HAI Group President and Chief Executive Officer Ed Malaspina. “We continued to be diligent in our underwriting discipline, were thoughtful in our spending, and strengthened our practices in key areas such as claims and enterprise risk management. The hard work and dedication from each of our employees has paid off and is reflective not only in the revision of our rating from AM Best, but more importantly in our service to our membership. We will remain committed to quality work and exceptional performance.”

Commercial UAV Expo Americas 2019 Completes 5th Annual Event, Exceeds All Prior Records

Leave a comment

“By convening the most influential companies and thought leaders to share their expertise and solutions, we gave everyone involved in the commercial drone market the opportunity to learn from the best.”


LAS VEGAS (PRWEB)

A record-breaking number of exhibitors and attendees gathered last week for Commercial UAV Expo Americas 2019, held October 28-30th at the Westgate Hotel in Las Vegas. The fifth annual event had 202 exhibitors and more than 3,100 professionals in the commercial drone industry, cementing its place as the largest and most important commercial UAS-focused event in North America. “The year-over-year growth was tremendous,” said Lisa Murray, Group Director at Diversified Communications, which produces the event. “Attendance was 32% over last year, with drone professionals coming from all 50 U.S. states and 54 countries. We had 110 new exhibitors and a total of 260 booths.”

The event kicked off Monday October 28th with extensive pre-conference programming including live outdoor flying demonstrations in Henderson, NV put on in cooperation with Sundance Media Group and participating vendors AeroVironment, Autel Robotics, DroneNerds, FLIR, Geometrics, Leica Geosystems, LIDARUSA and Micasense. According to Christopher Wacinski of FevaTech, who attended the demos, “Hands-on experience and being able to go physically see the operations in real time was fantastic. It’s critical, because you can really visualize how you can take and apply this technology and demonstration into your real-world operations.”

Vendor and association workshops during the event designed to increase technical know-how included A True View of Drone Lidar hosted by GeoCue Group; AUVSI Trusted Operator Program (TOP) Certification hosted by Embry Riddle; Intro to UAS Ops & Mapping & Advanced UAS Mapping Concepts hosted by ASPRS; Night sUAS (DRONE) CSI Demo hosted by Sundance Media Group; Night Flight Training, hosted by Sundance Media Group; Part 107 Test Prep, Hosted by Patrick Sherman, Roswell Flight Test Crew; Practical UAS Project Operations, hosted by MAPPS; Processing Large Datasets Workshop hosted by Pix4; and Latin American Commercial Drone Opportunities and Perspectives hosted by APD.”

Attendees’ first look at the expansive exhibit floor was during the Monday evening Welcome Happy Hour. Best-in-class solutions from the most influential companies were on display, allowing attendees to network and source the latest drone innovations. Jeff Powell of exhibiting company Autel Robotics commented on the quality of attendees, “One of the differences with this show versus other shows I’ve been to is that the right people are coming in. They’re all here to learn more about the products that they need to use for their industries. So the conversations we’ve had have been significant for us.”

Attendees heard Tuesday morning from keynoters James Bridenstine, the NASA Administrator, and Bala Ganesh, Vice President of the Advanced Technology Group at UPS. Bridenstine discussed how unmanned systems help achieve NASA’s missions to the moon and Mars and the industrialization of space. He highlighted how and why the administration he leads is not only about space goals, but also about aviation, both manned and unmanned. “UAVs and urban air mobility (UAM) are the future, but before we reach that future, we need to work hard in perfecting air traffic management systems and solve issues of infrastructure and certification,” Bridenstine told the crowd.

Ganesh touched on the FAA’s recent granting of the first full Part 135 certification to operate a drone airline without limits on the size or scope of operations, a big win for UPS and the commercial unmanned industry. He said their groundbreaking initiative to deliver medical samples via drones to WakeMed in Raleigh, NC has resulted in lab deliveries that previously took more than an hour currently taking five minutes.

The keynote presentations were followed by a panel discussion of CEOs in the commercial drone space titled “UAS Insights and Strategies for Success in the Current Marketplace.” The panel was moderated by Gretchen West, President & CEO of Schiebel Aircraft, Inc., and featured Mike Winn (CEO, DroneDeploy), Tom Walker (CEO, DroneUp), Brandon Torres Declet (CEO, Measure), and Adam Bry (CEO, Skydio). Each business leader discussed their path to success in the drone industry as well as their vision for the future of commercial UAS technology.

Other programming included Plenaries and General Sessions on AI & Machine Learning, Expanded Operations, Remote ID, UAM and UTM; vertical industry deep-dive sessions; roundtable discussions; Product Preview presentations and Exhibit Hall Theater Programming.

New this year, the DRONERESPONDERS Public Safety Summit included a public safety session with the LAFD Drone Program, a panel on drones in law enforcement and forensic analysis, discussions on disaster response and data management, public safety working groups, interactive Q&As, and more. Said Brian Hon, Arizona Department of Public Safety, “The technology that is being showcased here, the things that we’ve learned and techniques that we’ve gained, are absolutely helping us do our jobs better.”

This year’s event also featured new programming and networking to further advance and promote women in the commercial drone industry including a Women In Drones Session and networking opportunities.

The Tuesday evening Networking Reception, sponsored by YUNEEC, facilitated connections between professionals in similar industries. Brian Tiedemann, Florida Keys Electric Cooperative, said, “The networking is unbelievable. That is THE number one thing when you come to an expo like this. It is second to none.”

Commercial UAV Expo Americas was supported by 288 publications, portals, associations, user groups, analysts, cooperating events, government agencies, non-profits and others. “We are grateful to the nearly 300 partners who chose to back and promote this event. Their engagement is so important, and we look forward to continuing to provide value to one another in the coming years,” said Murray. She singled out Lisa Ellman, Executive Director of the Commercial Drone Alliance, as well as the Alliance, for their contributions. “Lisa Ellman and the Commercial Drone Alliance were critical in securing top-notch speakers and keynotes for the conference program. Once again, their connections and introductions proved invaluable, and we are so grateful for their ongoing support and partnership.”

“The full power of the drone industry was on display at our 5th edition of Commercial UAV Expo,” said Murray. “By convening the most influential companies and thought leaders to share their expertise and solutions, we gave everyone involved in the commercial drone market the opportunity to learn from the best.”
