A 49-year-old man and his dog were killed in the Los Angeles County community of San Marino when he was struck by a car. The driver is suspected of engaging in a street race at the time of the crash.
The man, who lived in San Gabriel, California, and his girlfriend were walking the dog mid-morning when two cars were speeding down Huntington Drive, near Kenilworth Avenue, police said.
There are few things more pleasurable than taking a summer stroll in Southern California's beach towns, breathing the salt-tinged ocean air and enjoying the breeze.
But before you head out the front door, make sure you are well-prepared to be seen by the drivers you encounter. Below are some pedestrian safety suggestions from the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center.
A Los Angeles woman was killed and her 4-year-old child was injured when a car barreled into their apartment as they slept.
The one-car crash occurred at about 5 a.m. in the 8700 block of Main Street in the Broadway-Manchester neighborhood of South Los Angeles, the city's fire department said.
Jogging is terrific exercise, and some runners enjoy being outdoors and on the road in the Southern California sunshine before a hectic workday.
There are dangers to sharing the road with vehicles, though. Recognizing them, the Roadrunners Club of America offers these running safety tips:
As a motorcyclist, you know that traffic patterns can change without notice. One second you're moving along on the highway, but the next you're stuck in a traffic jam on a city street.
If you find yourself driving in heavy traffic, here are five safety tips to follow:
A U.S. Postal Service truck driver died in a crash on the Garden Grove (22) Freeway in Orange County recently, the California Highway Patrol reported.

Now that summer is almost in full swing in California, you may find yourself driving your motorcycle as often as possible. It doesn't matter if you're commuting to and from work or taking a trip across the country, there's nothing more important than your safety.
Here are five motorcycle safety tips to follow this summer:
Cellphones clearly lead to a lot of distracted driving. There's a reason that recent laws have begun to make it illegal all over the United States. Drivers who are looking at their phones are not paying attention to the road, and that causes accidents.
But don't assume that distraction is just a problem behind the wheel. The reality is that distracted walking is also becoming an issue. Take the case where a man who was texting walked into a wall or the one where a woman fell into a fountain. It's clear that people who are so focused on their phones are not able to watch what they're doing, even when the risks are very clear and obvious.
A 20-year-old man from Sun Valley was killed when a driver in a red Audi convertible rammed into his scooter just after daybreak on June 6. The details of the violent accident, which was recorded on surveillance video, are disturbing.
The man on the scooter was stopped at a red light at Vineland Avenue and Vanowen Street in North Hollywood, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) reported. The video, which local media obtained, showed the Audi, which appeared to be speeding, plow into the scooter. The collision propelled both the man and his scooter into the air.
When a loved one suffers an injury in an accident and falls into a coma, we largely rely on modern medicine to pull them through.
Emergence from a coma, which is a state of unconsciousness in which patients don't open their eyes, can take anywhere from days to years.
