Las Vegas is one of the nation's deadliest cities for pedestrian accidents

Las Vegas is a major tourist destination, with millions of people from around the world visiting each month. Since walking is a primary way of getting around Vegas, it makes sense that there are more pedestrians on the streets than in other cities the same size.

Can technology save babies from dying in hot cars?

This week in Boston, a man left his 1-year-old daughter locked in his SUV in a Quincy parking lot outside the MBTA Red Line, forgetting that the sleeping baby was in the back seat. Already on the train, the panicked dad called 911 as soon as he realized his mistake. Thankfully, for once, this all-too-familiar story has a happy ending as police were able to get into the locked vehicle, where the little girl was still safely sleeping on a mild day.

Turn Around, Don't Drown: More than half of these deaths occur in motor vehicles when people attempt to drive through flooded roadways.

Video: Texas flash flood carries away Jeep with driver still inside

First things first: according to witnesses, the driver of the vehicle survived. Now, please gaze in horror at the speed at which the flood waters rise in this video captured this week in Texas (there's a bit of strong language from the terrified onlooker filming, so turn the volume down if you have delicate ears). I'm not sure what the circumstances surrounding this video were, but I think it's safe to assume that this wasn't intentional, and it's a good lesson in understanding where the "flash" in "flash flood" comes from.

Drowning really is silent: One mom's account of the day she almost lost her daughter

I used to read stories about near-drownings (or worse) every summer and think, "I'm so glad that didn't happen to me." Then it did.

I always watched my kids, so I thought I was safe. Then, last summer, I found my toddler unconscious at the bottom of a hot tub, and I realized just how quickly a child can drown.

I wanted to share this so other parents can learn from what happened to us.

This is our story.

91-year-old man achieves bucket list dream of smashing through garage door with SUV

This is my favorite story ever! 91-year-old Walter Thomas of Woodstock, Illinois has always had a dream: to back out of a closed garage door. Thomas himself explained, "Every time I back out of the garage, I think about backing through the door." Imagine the satisfaction! As someone who loves popping bubble wrap and has conducted what we'll call "therapy sessions" that consisted of smashing plates on a sidewalk, I totally get it.
