- Loretta Marie McCarthyI'd like someone to post a phone number to call when I see frightened/abandoned pets on the highways.I called 311 & they had to connect me to TXDOT. They wanted me to write down a number. Told them "I'm driving, how do I write & drive? You want me to have an accident, or get a ticket, when there is no place to stop on 225W, out of Pasadena?" I assume they sent someone out to pick up the frightened dog, it wasn't there when I drove by later on. Thank you! MERRY Christmas week everyone!1 · about a week ago
- Jeremy SalgeWouldn't it be nice if a law would pass that would make it were OTR drivers were fined for "littering." driving after they have a blow out causes rubber to be thrown all over the interstate. A motorist once stopped as I was picking up rubber and asked if the truck drivers are fined as smokers that throw out cigerarettes or just someone that throws trash out can be... I didn't know and was at a loss for words. I started thinking about it and thought it would be nice and could make the DPS and TxDOT some money for recycling purposes.1 · about 4 months ago
- Stephanie Donnell SantiagoI don't know if this will help, but maybe if enough of us from Karnes Co and surrounding areas get on this page and let them know what is happening around here with the 18 wheelers maybe they can come in and help.1 · about 10 months ago

- WEATHER UPDATE: As of this moment, Interstate 10 is closed west of Fort Stockton and doesn’t open again until mile marker 62 (basically the El Paso County line). Also, I-20 is closed west of Monahans all the way to the merger with I-10 and on to mile marker 62. (note: I-20 merges with I-10 just west of Pecos.) TxDOT crews have been working through the night treating overpasses and major roads. That work continues and will continue until the weather improves and the conditions clear. Motorists should avoid driving if they have a choice.
- ATTENTION motorists in West Texas: I-10 between El Paso & Fort Stockton is CLOSED in both directions due to a truck wreck & blizzard conditions. Heavy delays are expected! If possible, seek alternate routes. http://www.drivetexas.org/Full/

Join us in our effort to promote safe driving, especially through work zones, to all Texans.
