Wednesday will be one of the busiest travel days of the year, and it's not just carloads of people headed to Grandma's house who will be on the road.  State troopers will be out there too, watching for speeders, drunk drivers, and those who aren't wearing seat belts.

Vehicle thefts are a problem all year long, but especially during the holiday season when there are shopping bags and electronics sitting in plain sight. Here's some special incentive to lock your doors and hide your valuables in Lufkin.

If the Honda Accord is the most commonly stolen vehicle, it might be fair to say an ambulance theft is pretty uncommon. But it happened Sunday here in East Texas.

Driving along a highway late at night can be scary enough without an unexpected development giving you pause.

It's not just texting and driving that Austin is banning, but talking on the cell phone in the car too if the phone is up to the ear.  And if a police officer catches drivers or bicyclists tapping on an app while moving, they can be cited. Hands-free devices are okay, but even mobile devices like iPads and other tablets fall under the ban now. What about sitting at stoplights?

The art of magic has been taken to a whole new level thanks to this brave stupid brave and stupid prank.
