What do you think, should Minnesota follow Arizona's lead and start cracking down on speeders by using "photo cops".  On the plus side, the technology does make people slow down, and that means fewer crashes.  On the negative side, do we want government watching us that closely?   I'd like to hear your comments and I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have.

This is one of the most unusual stories I’ve ever covered.

Here you have a very intelligent man, a retired college professor, in good health, and out of the blue he has this very bizarre episode happen to him. Your first instincts are to chalk it up to his age. But then you learn this condition can strike just about anyone, at any age.

I’d be interested in hearing if you know of other people who have experienced something similar.

When we started our investigation of school bus safety we really didn't know what we were going to discover. But after a few days of surveilance it became very apparent that a significant number of bus drivers are failing in one of their most basic responsibilities:stop, look and listen at all railroad crossings. After seeing our video, representatives from Minnesota's school bus operators associations told us our story was a huge "wake up" call. They are encouraging the public to keep an eye on school bus driver behavior. If you see something wrong, write down the bus number and name of the company or school district. Then contact them to report what you saw. Also, feel free to contact me if there are other issues you feel warrant investigation.

School bus drivers are supposed to do quite a few things before they pick up your kids, and then while they're delivering them to their classrooms to ensure their safety. But as you'll see in my exclusive investigation this Thursday at 9:00pm, we caught quite a few drivers Ignoring The Rules and putting their precious human cargo at risk of being hurt. We've already shown clips of what the driver's didn't do to a group of private and public school bus transportation officials. All were shocked and disturbed by what they saw. You will be too. We'll show you our undercover video and tell you what the educators plan to do to make your children's trips to school more safe. That's Thursday night on Fox 9 News at 9:00
