Thanks to our partners at @NBCNightlyNews for featuring our reporting on how high speeds are claiming too many lives on our roads - and what might be done to change that. @NBCDFW
NBC Nightly News with Tom Llamas@NBCNightlyNews

.@NBCDFW analyzed federal data and found that, over 5 years, Dallas has the highest traffic fatality rate among America’s 10 largest cities. The number one factor in the deadly wrecks? Speed. @ScottNBC5 reports on the impact of this data and what experts say could help.

Thank you @DavidZipper for taking time to walk and drive some of Dallas’ most dangerous roads with us - and for sharing your thoughts on how we might begin to make our neighborhoods safer. @NBCDFW #DFWDrivenToDeath
David Zipper@DavidZipper

This is the best series on road safety I’ve ever seen. Last week @nbcdfw ran a multi-part investigation into Dallas' epidemic of car crashes. Rather than blame drivers, the story delves into speed, street design, and Vision Zero's failures. 🧵 nbcdfw.com/investigations…

@ScottNBC5 Me and a number of other homeowners in the Glenn Heights community have been trying for months to reach your team. We have significant safety concerns with Bloomfield homes. Many of our new homes are unfinished and hazardous. Some have lost their homes due to fire.

@DTxG07 @NBCDFW Actually, the emissions portion of the inspection will remain in the large urban Texas counties that don’t meet federal air quality standards. The emissions tests are federally required by the EPA. Only the safety portion of the inspection is going away next year.

@NBCDFW @ScottNBC5 This is no longer a law except in high population areas of the state…. Find something newsworthy!

Texas DPS reveals a third employee has been suspended in the widening fake inspection scandal inside the agency. Arrest warrant paperwork obtained by NBC5 Investigates details $110,000+ in alleged illicit payments to another DPS staffer. @NBCDFW nbcdfw.app.link/Co2f1FWbSCb

Great to be in DC with the team to accept a @USCAnnenberg Walter Cronkite Award for political journalism for our documentary project “Against All Enemies”. Powerful to hear the stories of journalists across the country working to counter disinformation. @NBCDFW

Texas will no longer allow continuing ed. credit for law enforcement classes from a group teaching county sheriffs they outrank the FBI. This comes after a state investigation stemming from questions raised in our reporting of "Against All Enemies".@NBCDFW nbcdfw.com/investigations…

Records indicate the Allen outlet mall gunman signed his TX driver's license & other docs with a Nazi logo. A reminder law enforcement experts say that mass shooters often leak small clues about ideology or intentions months or years in advance. @NBCDFW nbcdfw.com/investigations…

Texas Legislature on the verge of eliminating vehicle safety inspections — but the state would still collect fees we pay for inspections. And in the big DFW counties cars would still need an annual emissions inspection. @NBCDFW on.nbcdfw.com/oj1TGUN

@ScottNBC5 have you looked into the Dallas sanitation department issues and how did they get the job not even having a truck with the claw. They pick-up trash by hand and drop all over the alley or leave in the can. Calling 311 is useless since they ignore it and don't pick-up

State records suggest hundreds of fake vehicle inspections were happening right under the nose of an auditor from the state agency in charge of enforcing the inspection rules -- raising questions about TX DPS efforts to combat the problem. @NBCDFW on.nbcdfw.com/u3lKVzQ

Texas DPS announces a crack down on vehicle inspection stations conducting fake inspections - one week after an NBC5 Investigation revealed major gaps in a state system allowing cars with fake inspections to get real license plates. @NBCDFW nbcdfw.com/investigations…

The TX DPS director director is pledging to help fix the gaps we uncovered in the state's vehicle inspection system. As we revealed the state's computer system does not prevent cars with fake safety and emissions inspections from getting plates. @NBCDFW nbcdfw.com/investigations…
