    CLEVELAND (WJW) — Ramps near Cleveland Hopkins International Airport were blocked Saturday afternoon starting around 3 p.m. due to a reported protest. Although the ramps reopened, a law enforcement presence was on scene for a while afterward, as seen on Ohio Department of Transportation/OHGO camera footage. At the time, ODOT described the shutdown as an “other incident,” but FOX 8 camera crews were able to get footage of people standing next to parked cars, some holding Palestinian flags. The two blockages were at ramp I-480 Westbound to SR-237 Southbound and ramp I-71 Southbound to SR-237 Southbound. Cleveland police released the...

The violent fracas broke out in the middle of the Sunrise Highway in North Lindenhurst after two trucks crashed Wednesday around 12:35 p.m., officials said. Three people were arrested. All of the men involved “are known to one another,” and two of them are relatives that live together, according to Suffolk County Police.

    Meanwhile in the Democrat hellhole of California… Another fire broke out underneath a Los Angeles freeway just days after the 10 freeway was closed down indefinitely due to a massive fire. A fire broke out underneath the 105 and 110 freeway interchange in Los Angeles on Tuesday morning. The blaze spread from a homeless encampment, according to reports. “From what we’re seeing here from Sky5, it would appear that it is some sort of encampment that is burning under the overpass,” KTLA 5’s Rich Prickett said. “For right now it’s contained in that one little area.”

Through Arizona it would use a combination of upgraded existing highways and new highways from Nogales to the Nevada state line, south of Las Vegas

  • US approves new headlights that won’t blind oncoming drivers

    DETROIT – Anyone who has ever been temporarily blinded by high-beam headlights from an oncoming car will be happy to hear this. U.S. highway safety regulators are about to allow new high-tech headlights that can automatically tailor beams so they focus on dark areas of the road and don't create glare for oncoming drivers. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it issued a final rule allowing what's called “adaptive driving beam headlights” on new vehicles. It will go into effect when published in the Federal Register in the next few days. The headlights, commonly used in Europe, have LED...

    Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt has signed a bill naming a stretch of highway in the state after former President Donald Trump, KTUL reported over the weekend. According to the legislation, which was one of 41 other bills Stitt signed and which will take effect on November 1, the section of State Highway 287 that starts in Boise City, extends 20 miles along the panhandle, and finishes on the southeast Oklahoma-Texas border, will be named after the former president. Republican legislators slipped the Trump highway proposal into the state legislature's annual omnibus bill naming bridges and highways, which is usually uncontroversial,...

    New Maryland bill would rename 'Indian Head Highway' to 'President Barack Obama Highway' © Getty Images State senators in Maryland recently introduced legislation that seeks to rename Indian Head Highway after former President Obama. Senate Bill 213, introduced by Democratic state Sens. Arthur Ellis and Obie Patterson, would require the Maryland State Highway Administration to designate the highway, also known by some as Maryland Route 210, as “the President Barack Obama Highway.” The change would cost roughly $12,500 to cover the costs for the design, construction and installation of the signs for the highway, which runs through parts of Maryland...
