In a little more than a month, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles will stop issuing temporary paper license plates following a series of reports by NBC 5 Investigates that exposed how crooks made millions selling fraudulent paper tags for profit. In 2023, the Texas legislature set a plan in motion to eliminate paper tags later this summer.

The paper trail ends this summer, bringing cheers from many in law enforcement and questions from drivers about what will happen next.

Chief Daniel Comeaux held his first briefing with the committee on Monday.

New Dallas Chief of Police Daniel Comeaux is pledging to take action on slow police response times in the wake of an ongoing series of reports from NBC 5 Investigates. On Thursday night, NBC 5 Investigates showed startling video of two 10-year-old boys who were standing on the sidewalk with their bicycles when they were hit by an SUV that jumped a curb. Dallas police confirm it took officers more than four and a half hours to respond to the crash and begin an investigation.
