We're nearing the end of the road for the "Paper Tag Nation". 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.

On July 1, Texas drivers will see a massive change with temporary license plates after the Texas legislature voted to eliminate paper tags. NBC 5 Investigates began a series of award-winning reports in 2022, uncovering how fraudulent paper license tags had become a tool for criminals to conceal their identities and evade police. The paper trail ends this summer, bringing cheers from many in law enforcement and questions from drivers about what will happen next.

There are hopeful signs of improvement on some of Dallas' most deadly streets. After recording 210 fatal crashes in 2024, the City of Dallas has seen the number of deadly crashes trend downward in the first four and a half months of 2025. Citywide, there have been 35 fewer fatal crashes compared to the same time frame last year. And the city's deadliest roadway - Loop 12 - is also on pace for fewer fatalities this year.

A new report from NBC 5 Investigates shows how the McKinney National Airport in Collin County and federal courts in Plano and Sherman have become key stops for accused drug cartel leaders on a road to face justice in the US. Quietly, Collin and Grayson counties are now among the nation's go-to destinations for prosecuting high-level cartel figures. On Feb. 27, a Mexican Navy aircraft arrived at McKinney Airport.
