We hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving - and if you’re hitting the road, please drive safe!

Kirsten Kozar, a 7-year veteran investigator with Durham's traffic and collision team, says this increase in patrolling is not about tricking people or playing hide-and-seek. The police's goal is to make sure you make it safely to your Thanksgiving table, Kozar said.

Please, please, please drive safely out there folks.

Speeding once is not worth ending your life or life of another motorist forever.

"It’s proven that excessive speeds have deadly consequences. Last year in North Carolina, crashes were down because of the reduced congestion. However, traffic fatalities were up. Experts say high speed was to blame."

After WRAL Investigates reported on an increase excessive speed and highway deaths, we continued to hear complaints about reckless speeders getting away with it. So we went to court and dug into the data to see for ourselves.

Talk to any cyclist and you're sure to hear their stories of close calls, near misses, and erratic drivers.

Seeing so many cyclists getting injured and killed here in North Carolina is tragic. It doesn't need to be like this.

Please share the road and drive responsibly today and everyday, folks.

When you receive a traffic citation in North Carolina remember to ALWAYS look up your case online through the NC Court Calendar.

"Specifically, ABC11 has learned that troopers may have "misrepresented citations" by adding additional penalties after the driver had already been issued a ticket.

The driver, thus, wouldn't find out about those additional citations until traffic court or after missing payment deadlines."
