Marriage is not always wine and roses. It starts with a couple wanting to prove to their undying devotion and love to each other. It starts with hope and love.

Unfortunately, the rigors of married life may not always result in a forever bond. In these instances, a couple may decide that living together is no longer a viable option and that finding themselves as single people is the best course. When a couple agrees on the terms of their separation, they may go through the Texas court system using an uncontested divorce. Understanding what the process is may help you determine if this process will work for you.

Texas is home to beautiful landscapes and wide open spaces  The many scenic roadways that criss-cross the state are great for motorcyclists. However, traveling by motorcycle these days can be very risky. What makes riding motorcycles so risky is not the motorcycles themselves, but the other vehicles on the road. Since bikers are exposed to the elements, motorcycle accidents are more likely to result in serious injury or death.

Recently in San Antonio, a hit-and-run accident involving a motorcycle resulted in the death of one man. The accident happened on Southeast Loop 410. According to investigators, the motorcyclist may have cut in front of a car, and the driver of the car became angry. Reports said the driver of the car engaged in road rage and began attempting to pass the motorcycle.

Becoming a parent typically means becoming tied to the other parent no matter what. While this arrangement may not seem problematic to happily-married couples, it could cause an issue for individuals who choose to divorce. Certainly, ending a marriage does not end parenthood, but if individuals opt for joint custody, it commonly does mean continuing to work with an ex.

Many Texas parents may believe that joint custody is the best arrangement for their kids after a divorce. Keeping in mind that the custody terms are for the benefit of the children and not necessarily the parents could help when parental relationships become strained. It could be difficult at times to see an ex-spouse or have to try to make important decisions together, but keeping the well-being of the kids at the forefront may help parents push through challenges.

Motorcycle enthusiasts from Texas and beyond often travel to Austin for an annual bike rally event. In fact, the event was being held on a recent weekend, during which a motor vehicle accident occurred involving a car and a motorcycle. Multiple travelers suffered injuries in the collision.

It is unclear whether the motorcyclists involved in the crash were part of the rally. However, current data shows that motorcyclists are often injured in traffic accidents when the rally is being hosted. About three days into this year's rally, medics reported that six separate incidents had occurred, resulting in eight people being hospitalized.
