The Road Beat: 2023 Toyota Prius Prime review ~ Hot yet expensive Prius

You know something is not right in the world when the Toyota Prius is now considered, and quite collectively at that, one of the best cars in the world. No longer is this pioneering hybrid an ugly can of slow molasses, but instead an attractive and sleek family car with more than adequate performance.

New California laws for 2024

Governor Gavin Newsom this year signed landmark legislation to support the reproductive rights of Californians, increase affordable housing, hold Big Oil accountable, and protect the safety, health, and well-being of all Californians.

Here is a quick look at a few bills that will take effect on January 1, 2024:

January is Human Trafficking Prevention Month

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – Did you know human trafficking is often a crime that is hidden in plain sight and is only visible to those who know the signs and indicators?

Illegal parking, unsafe behaviors, and trash are issues on Lake Tahoe highways
