This is Memorial Day weekend and a lot of Texans are hitting the road. According to Triple-A Texas, travel is down nationwide. But the numbers are up, here in Texas. About 2.9 million Texans are expected to take a trip this weekend and most of us will get to our destination by driving. If that includes you, be careful on the road.
