SMS Gupshup and ICICI Lombard join hands to bring you traffic alerts

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 27, 2009 – The Mumbai Traffic Police has created three traffic communities TrafficCity, TrafficEast and TrafficWest that are sponsored by ICICI Lombard and will send traffic alerts to the community members twice a day.
Members of the community would receive text messages during the morning and the evening. Based on the information received, commuters would be made aware of the traffic conditions they in turn can make an informed decision on which route to take. To facilitate even better commuting experience, Mumbai Traffic Police will disseminate additional messages in cases like traffic jams, accidents, processions, political rallies, religious congregations and floods.
Says Beerud Sheth, CEO, and SMS GupShup, “Knowing what route to take and the bottlenecks to avoid can make all the difference to your day We at SMS GupShup believe that delivering such vital information in a timely manner, via SMS to people in Mumbai would be a great value addition. We are happy to have ICICI Lombard on board with us on this initiative.”
The communities have been created considering the traffic flow in Mumbai.
1)Traffic East: With 3823 members, this community will update commuters from Eastern suburbs of Mumbai starting from Sion to Mulund and Vashi. For a sample of alerts visit http://www.smsgupshup.com/groups/TrafficEast
2) Traffic West: With 6902 members, this community will update commuters from Western suburbs of Mumbai starting from Bandra to Dahisar. For a sample of alerts visit http://www.smsgupshup.com/groups/TrafficWest
3)Traffic City: With 6408 members, this community will update commuters from Colaba to Mahim and Sion. For a sample of alerts visit http://www.smsgupshup.com/groups/trafficcity.
Kartik Jain, Head-Marketing and E Channel, ICICI Lombard General Insurance, says “We are delighted to tie up with SMS GupShup and the Mumbai Traffic Police to bring commuters in Mumbai information, which is relevant and timely. The sms alerts are a value add over and above our motor insurance solutions and will help motorists save precious time and avoid traffic jams. ICICI Lombard is sponsoring the TrafficWest, TrafficEast and TrafficCity communities.”
To join these communities and receive regular alerts from Mumbai’s Traffic Police, all one has to do is to send a message i.e. JOIN TrafficEast, JOIN TrafficWest or JOIN TrafficCity to 567678.
Sanjay Barve, Joint Commissioner of Police, Mumbai Traffic, says “We have decided to start this service so that we can provide motorists alternate routes in case their original routes are blocked. He added, “Around 10,000 motorists have subscribed to this service.”

In Todays Economy Consumers Are Turning To Do-it-yourself Moving Options To Keep Costs Down!

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 24, 2009 – Lancaster, PA - In today's economy consumers are turning to do-it-yourself moving options to keep costs down. Let’s discuss a few of these options:
Truck Rental:
If you are looking to save money on your move, this is the option that many consumers choose thinking they'll be able to get the "Cheapest" move. Although costing less than a Van Line or Full Service company it is not the least expensive option out there today. Consider the rising cost of fuel, the cost of food/hotels, and don't forget the added cost of your time.
There are options to choose from – Some companies will give you discounts and some will guarantee the lowest price. Be sure to get a few quotes to ensure you're getting the best deal.
Penske Truck
Budget Truck
Enterprise Truck Rental
Ryder Truck Rental
Truck & Driver:
This is an option that many consumers are NOT aware of. Since the economy started to fall more and more freight companies have started hauling household good shipments. This option, in most cases, is less expensive than simply renting a truck when you add everything involved. The company provides the space needed, the driver, and the fuel. Be sure to compare the companies below to the truck rental quotes you get above.
Bonhomme Logistics
UPack
Broadway Express
Movex (Pricing is higher than others above - My Opinion!)
Containerized Moving:
There are a rising number of companies that provide this very unique service. Somewhere between the cost of a Truck Rental and a Full Service Van Line you can have a container dropped at your home and then moved to your new home. In most cases the move includes up to (30) days of storage.
This option although a bit more than both options above does reduce the risk of claims to your household items. Packing a container tight is much easier than packing a truck or trailer.
PODS
doortodoor
1800PackRat
MobileAttic
Packing, Loading, and/or Unloading Services:
If you're trying to save money on your move but don't want to break your back, visit The Movers Review. This website provides "Movers History ReportsSM" which allows customers to select the best mover based on ratings/reviews from neighbors, pricing, licensed/insured, references, and so much more...
Utilize any of the services above to save money on your next move!

Move-In / Move-Out™ program allows self-storage companies to compete with mobile storage industry!

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 24, 2009 – Lancaster, PA – The Movers Review has set out to assist self-storage facilities throughout the nation by developing a Move-In / Move-Out™ program. The program allows self-storage clients to streamline the task of moving into or out of storage both locally or long distance.  
Using the latest technology available the Founder spent two years in research and development to build an online platform that would provide self-storage facilities a way to compete with mobile storage and moving industries *(eg: PODS® -1800PACKRATsm - Door to Doorsm - SmartMove®). He wanted to insure that consumers could visit one (1) website that would give them everything they needed to make an educated decision. He then took it a few steps further by adding the ability, through the company’s website, to book free in-home estimates, book services directly with selected mover(s), create/manage/update online accounts, and manage all move related paperwork/documentation.  
The Move-In / Move-Out™ program was designed to assist self-storage clients with their local or long distance moving requirements. For about the same cost of a delivered mobile storage container this program provides movers that will move you into or out of storage. There are benefits to utilizing traditional self-storage facilities wherein you have 24/7 access to your storage unit without paying an access fee or scheduling dates/times to get to your belongings.
The Movers Review is an online moving services company with headquarters conveniently located just outside of Philadelphia. The company was established in 2008 and started as a part-time project for its founder. It now operates with more than 1,400 rated and reviewed movers nationally and services an average of 40+ moves on a daily basis. There is one benefit that the Founder did not foresee while developing the site. With the number of movers and the volume generated from the site it created a competitive marketplace as movers who have been rated & reviewed are constantly updating their profiles to price match other movers in their area and maximize their bookings within the website. Not only has the site achieved what was intended, but it reached further than expected by saving consumers both time and money on their move.
Currently with 13 employees the company can handle in upwards of 2,000 moves per month thanks to the automation designed by our programmers. Within most moving companies it would take 40 or more employees to handle such a work load. Move coordinators and operational teams are trained to handle every detail related to each consumer’s move. By providing these teams we give the support needed during what is said to be one of the most stressful times in anyone’s life - Moving Day.

Amerijet Offers Tips for Vehicle Shipping

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 19, 2009 – Amerijet International, Inc. provides vehicle shipping services to destinations spanning the globe. These services are offered to both personal and commercial consumers.
In an effort to streamline the vehicle shipping process, the experts at Amerijet offer customers several tips to prepare their car for shipping.
First, Amerijet recommends customers remove all personal belongings from their car before shipping. The purpose of this is to avoid losses or damages to these items and to help the vehicle clear customs more easily.
Amerijet also recommends customers disconnect their car alarms before vehicle shipping. This is done to keep the car alarm from going off and draining the battery during loading, transport, and unloading.
Another vehicle shipping tip from Amerijet’s shipping experts is to leave a small amount of fuel in the vehicle before shipping. This is done for a few reasons, including lessening the weight of the car to be shipped.
The final recommendation from Amerijet is to get transportation insurance on the vehicle being shipped. Most standard car insurance policies don’t cover international shipping of cars. A transportation insurance policy from Amerijet will cover the car for 100% of its insured value in the unlikely event of an accident.
For more information on Amerijet’s vehicle shipping services, visit https://www.amerijet.com
Amerijet International, Inc. is a full-service multi-modal transportation and logistics provider, offering international, scheduled all-cargo transport via land, sea, and air.

Car Search: New Service Saves Car Buyers Time and Money Nationwide.

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 14, 2009 – –  Imagine waking up in the morning, checking your email, and finding 4 reports with full color photos, options details, professional and consumer reviews of a vehicle, and a CarFax Motor Vehicle Report all detailing different versions of your next car with all the options and pricing that you requested.  It’s now possible with a new service provided by Car Finders America.   The service, like many opportunities was spawned by the founder’s own trials and tribulations in finding his latest car.  “It’s funny but its not, my search for my last car took nearly 40 hours.  Now I was looking for a specific make and model but that’s 40 hours away from work, family, and friends.  That’s 40 hours I’m not getting back.” Says founder Andy Brinkworth.  “There are over 10 different websites that people use to list their cars online and those sites are updated daily.  A lot of times, if you aren’t checking several times a day, that great deal on the car you’ve always wanted can slip through your fingers.”
While their service may not be new, their approach definitely is.  “We are definitely going old school on this one.  Most search sites have notification systems in place, but that means that you still have to go through them and input all the information that you want to have in your next car and if you change your mind, you have to do it all over again.  And that is just for the sites that allow for notices, that doesn’t include checking 3 or 4 different Craigslist.org cities and Ebay.  We patrol every site that sells cars and even call dealerships in the area looking for the right car for a client, and we do it often so that diamond in the rough doesn’t end up in someone else’s garage.”  
But the benefits isn’t just in saved time, buyers also get the opportunity to find the best price on their next car.  “We leave the choice up to them but we want them to know what is available and at what price.  That car you really like today at $15,000 might show up the next day with a motivated seller for $3000 less.  That’s tremendous and we’ve seen it happen.”
That said Car Finders America also helps buyers avoid many pitfalls that come when dealing with online sales, i.e. scams.  “There are a lot of people out there relisting amazing cars for 50% of Kelly Blue Book with payments through Moneygram, and a promise to ship for free.  This is a huge red flag but sometimes as a buyer, the desire for the car overrides their better judgment and they get taken.  We vet every single car before a report goes out on availability and veracity of the ad.  We understand that every car is going to say the car is perfect but we know that if the car has 200,000 miles and is 25 years old, it’s going to have some issues.  The client will know everything about that car before they show up for a test drive.”
The process is actually quite simple.  All a client has to do is contact Car Finders America by phone at 866-990-8155 or email at contact@carfindersamerica.com.  They will ask you a series of questions about what you want in your next car and they’ll get started.  There is no upfront fee.  If they can’t find your car, they won’t charge you it’s just that simple.  When they do find your car they will let you know how many and in what areas and submit a bill for their fee of $50.  Once the account is settled, the reports will be emailed to the buyer.  After the buyer chooses a car, Car Finders America will schedule a test drive and check satisfaction.  If for any reason the buyer isn’t satisfied with the car they have selected, Car Finders America will keep searching for the right car at no extra charge.  “We looked at a number of different models and we felt that this method and fee schedule was the best way to go.  The $50 fee is good for right now but it may go up or down depending on demand.  The way we look at it is simple, how much is your time worth to you?  I know that my search if I had billed it by the hour would have cost me around $800 so we obviously feel that our price point is really a steal.”
Car Finders America finds new and used cars of all makes and models, by working with dealers and private sellers across the country to find your next car fast and in your price range.  To learn more about the company and their services, which also include car consignment, or to view a sample report, please visit http://carfindersamerica.com
To contact Car Finders America directly about their services, please call 866-990-8155 or email contact@carfindersamerica.com.

The Infiniti EX35 SUX Tops IIHS List of Safe Cars

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 10, 2009 – The new Infiniti EX35 CUV has earned the Top Safety Pick award (2008) from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
The luxury EX35 SUV is the first Infiniti to earn this top safety award.  Cars that win the Top Safety Pick afford superior overall crash protection among the vehicles in their class. In order to qualify for this award, a vehicle must earn the highest ratings in the front, side, and rear tests, provided by the Institute. The car must also be equipped with Electronic Stability Control (ESC).  
The Institute made the criteria to earn the safety award tougher in 2007 by adding the requirement that winners must have Electronic Stability Control. This recent requirement was based on the Institute’s research that cars with ESC are significantly reduced in the risk of driver involvement in crashes.  The criteria to win has been made tougher because the award is intended to inspire safety advancements in new cars. The EX35 has such improvements, like a top crash test rating, and ESC (which comes standard).

Ford Focus Beats Honda as Cleanest Vehicle in America

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 09, 2009 – (Asheville, North Carolina): Altech-Eco Corporation, a pioneer in alternative fuel conversion technologies for automobiles, announced today that they have obtained a Certificate of Conformity from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for their compressed natural gas (CNG) dedicated conversion system for the Ford Focus, for both model years 2008 & 2009 equipped with the 2.0 liter engine. Under the EPA’s classification system (Tier 2 Bin 2) this dedicated conversion system has now achieved the cleanest possible emissions rating for an internal combustion engine, and therefore it qualifies for a $4,000.00 Federal Tax Credit. This CNG Focus achieves groundbreaking cleaner emissions while exemplifying the tremendous environmental benefits and large cost savings of natural gas as a transportation fuel. “We are extremely proud of our CNG conversion system, and that it achieves emissions results cleaner than any internal combustion vehicle currently being produced by an automotive manufacturer. This vehicle is now available for immediate sale to Government, municipalities and industry, as well as the consumer”.
Altech-Eco’s EPA approved CNG fuel conversion system not only helps the environment by providing the cleanest emissions of any production internal combustion vehicle, but also significantly reduces dependency on foreign oil, because the vehicle operates entirely on lower-cost natural gas, saving consumers and industry money at the pump. Miles George, Vice President/CFO, stated that, “We need a national policy that creates concrete action immediately to make CNG vehicles widely available. Half of the national CNG infrastructure is already in place, and the large tax credits for natural gas vehicles will further expedite this evolutionary process.. CNG is one of the most abundant, cheapest, and cleanest fuels available and is a powerful alternative to gasoline and diesel. Our Ford Focus CNG conversions are perfect for fleets or residential consumers and you will be amazed by the performance and its low emission results.”
About the Natural Gas Focus: This EPA approved Dedicated 2008 & 2009 CNG Ford Focus runs exclusively on compressed natural gas (called “CNG”,  although bi-fuel options are also available) and offers a driving range of 250 - 350 miles and an average 39 mpg on the highway and 28 mpg in the city (results may vary), with over 8 cubic feet of trunk space. Ford’s original factory warranty remains valid and Altech-Eco provides an additional lifetime warranty on the engine and all CNG components for every vehicle sold with their conversion system. The 2009 Ford Focus with CNG option is now available for immediate sale at all participating Ford dealerships and approved aftermarket conversion facilities, with 2010 model on the way.

The Company is certified by the EPA as a Small Vehicle Manufacturer (SVM).

Traders Join Campaign Against ‘unjustifiable’ Motorbike Charges

PRLog (Press Release) – Aug 09, 2009 – Motorcycle and Scooter Traders are joining the fight against Westminster City Council’s Motorcycle Parking ‘Tax’, lending financial support and publicity to the No To Bike Parking Tax Campaign in the run up to the legal challenge being prepared against the scheme.
Metropolis Motorcycles, one of London’s leading dealers in scooters and motorcycles, has pledged to match the donations of ordinary bikers to the Campaign by 15p for every £1 donated to the campaign, in a move which marks a huge shift in the scope of the group, which was only founded 11 months ago but already has over 6000 registered members on it’s website.
Warren Djanogly, Chairman of the No To Bike Parking Tax Campaign, said today:
“Metropolis are standing up alongside their customers in telling Westminster that this tax is an utterly retrograde step. We are extremely happy that such an iconic dealer has spoken out against this cash-grab and look forward to the day when Metropolis and other traders can once again sell bikes with the promise of free parking.’
Other traders to have provided backing include Devitt Insurance, South London Motorrad, RAP Superbikes, R.Agius, and BykaTryka. MCE Insurance, Inifinity, and Doble Motorcycles have been publicising the campaign and informing customers of demonstrations and ways to object to the scheme.
The campaign is taking Westminster to court in an effort to highlight shortcomings in the consultation scheme, disparities over the money raised and where it will be spent, omissions in statutory processes, and the overall legality of the scheme. It is also hoped that the publicity generated will lead to a further backlash at what is seen by most in the biking community as a short sighted cash grab.
Clr. Chalkley admitted on More4 News on July 1st that the scheme was bringing in revenue, despite the original scheme being sold on it’s revenue neutrality. Westminster is actively attempting to sell the scheme to other boroughs in an attempt to raise further revenue. Bike Parking Taxes could take up to £93million/year from bikers if rolled out nationally.
Charlie Lort-Phillips, Press Spokeman, said:
“Westminster thought that if they just hung on long enough this would all go away. The backing for our campaign from Metropolis and other traders clearly shows that if anything the resolve to defeat this ridiculous revenue-generating and punitive tax has grown stronger.”
Thousands of bikers are expected to descend again on the centre of London on Sunday 16th August in a symbolic presentation of a giant legal summons outside Westminster City Hall.
Notes to Editors:
THE NEXT DEMONSTRATION WILL LEAVE ACE CAFÉ AT 11AM, RALLY IN GOLDEN SQUARE FROM 12-1230, AND CONTINUE TO WESTMINSTER CITY HALL AT 1300

1)     The No To Bike Parking Fees protest group is the leading voice challenging the charges, and has enlisted the support of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, the Drivers’ Alliance, The British Motorcycle Federation, the Motorcycle Action Group,  and thousands of bikers across the UK. Further information about the campaign can be found at www.notobikeparkingfees.com. To contact the TaxPayers’ Alliance, please contact Mark Wallace, Campaign Director of the Alliance, at:

Mobile: 07736 009 548
2)     Westminster City Council’s scheme involves a parking charge of £1 a day for every motorbike or scooter. To buy an annual parking pass now costs a minimum of £100. From introduction in August 2008 until July 2009, the parking tax raised over £4million.
3)     In the Conservative Party’s key document on economic policy, “Reconstruction: Plan for a Strong Economy”, published at the Conservative Party Conference in September 2008 and signed by David Cameron and George Osborne, the first pledge in the Conservative agenda for Tax Reform is “an end to stealth taxes.” This document can be read here: http://www.conservatives.com/~/media/Files/Downloadable%20Files/Reconstruction_-_Plan_for_a_strong_economy.ashx?dl=true
4)     In a letter in March to a supporter of the campaign, Robert Goodwill, Conservative MP for Scarborough and Whitby and Shadow Transport Minister for Roads, said ““Please note that this is not a policy set by the Conservative Party nationally but a local policy decided by Westminster councillors. I hope that this will not be replicated widely".
5)     In response to question 446/2009, Mayor Boris Johnson said about the parking tax: “I am keen to encourage the use of motorcycles in London, as evidenced by my recent announcement to allow motorcycles in bus lanes on the TLRN. I will ask TfL to discuss with Westminster as to whether the introduction of this payment has led to a reduction in the number of people using motorcycles in central London.”
6)      
Further quotes:
“To my mind, your notice (of future demonstrations) is not a warning I see it as a threat.  Bully-boy tactics until you get your own way.  A common sympton of the male species.”  - Cllr Burbridge in response to a letter of objection.
“Chalkley’s call for a legitimate protest to be halted, and Cllr Burbridge’s outrageous comments, clearly show the level to which the proponents of this tax have sunk in order to smear those opposed to it.” Warren Djanogly, NTBPF
“Please note that this is not a policy set by the Conservative Party nationally but a local policy decided by Westminster councillors. I hope that this will not be replicated widely". Robert Goodwill MP, Shadow Roads Minister
