 five causes lead to car traffic accident 

For that, the car users need to know the things that can be anticipated early in order not to harm themselves or others. There are several factors that lead to car traffic accident

Here are five causes of accident which it's considered to warrant concern:

1. Puddles. Entering the rainy season, you can bet a lot of puddles created by the condition of roads are not smooth or bumpy. Driving at speeds above 60 miles per hour making traction tires on the asphalt began to diminish, even disappear. Water is a barrier material between the tire and the road surface. It would be even more dangerous when your tire tread is thin. The tendency that often happens is the car will suddenly pull to the right or left.

2. Tire rupture. It is as dangerous as a puddle. Not only cars are hard to control, but the car can suddenly swerved and overturned because the height difference due to car tires exploded. Especially when driving in a high enough speed. Ensure that the condition of your tires are still fit for use.

3. Bumpy road. As the car sped through the waves and what happens is the car a little drift. In fact, the back often can not be set, especially if conditions are bad suspension. This uneven roads cause car drift due to tire does not stick well and lose traction.

4. Tension brake or slip. This is definitely going to make a car out of control and difficult to be slowed. Especially on cars with automatic transmission that rely solely on the brakes without the engine brake. Should always do checks on the braking system before traveling.

5. Human error. This factor is the biggest contributor to traffic accidents. Some examples are raced beyond the driving ability, drowsiness, excessive reaction when the car is experiencing symptoms of a negative control, like the giddy, oversteer, or understeer. In addition, decreasing the concentration of the driver due to busy to SMS, telephone, and eating while driving.

New Toyota Camry was launched to have cheaper prices

CALIFORNIA,  - "They can not raise the Camry prices  in the market because it is still in recession," said Jim Hall, an analyst at 2953 Analytics Inc. in Birmingham, Michigan.

New Toyota Camry was launched to have cheaper prices

Rarely in the automotive world, the new product was launched to have cheaper prices than the previous model, let alone Toyota Camry classmates. However, when the 2012 model was launched in late August in the U.S., mid-size sedan is priced more than 200 to 2,000 U.S. dollars  per unit than its predecessor.

It could be so because of Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) was able to improve efficiency while producing the best-selling sedan in the U.S.. Among them, Toyota bought "unemployed" secondhand robot assembly   in the factories of New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated (NUMMI) in California, USA. This plant is an asset owned by Toyota and General Motors, but it has stopped operating since last year.

"A lot of new equipment in the factory, although we also get a lot of old stuff," said Steve St. Angelo, executive vice president of Toyota North America, as reported by Bloomberg, on Friday (16/09/2011) morning.

New equipment that is used to support the production of the Camry in 2012. "We are also using robots (assembly) in there (NUMMI)," Angelo continued, without even mentioning the value of corporate purchasing.

Toyota's efficiency measures is done in order to decrease the burden on U.S. companies, as its largest market outside of Japan. Toyota Camry did not want to lose his position as a best-selling product in the U.S., given the many competitors who enter from other brands, such as Hyundai and Ford, which offers a compact and hatchback cars.
