    Speeding Up While Limits Rise | Springfield Missouri News

    Speeding’s becoming the new normal—new AAA research reveals most drivers think 10 mph over is fine, with nearly half prioritizing traffic flow over safety and 30% admitting they’re just frustrated by slower cars. A whopping 79% say a ticket would make them slow down, while crash risk and bad weather follow closely behind. Just as this data drops, a new law raises rural speed limits from 70 to 75 mph—starting August 28th—sparking serious questions about what this means for road safety.

    Dan + Shay’s Raw New Album Young | Springfield Missouri News

    Dan + Shay drop their raw, emotional new album “Young,” with the haunting first single “Say So” tackling mental health and suicide after the loss of a close friend — a topic they initially hesitated to address but felt compelled to share. Written on their friend’s birthday, the song became a beacon of healing, and the entire album reflects their current emotional honesty through ten deeply personal tracks. They’ve also embraced spirituality with songs like “Her, The Kids and Jesus,” even collaborating with Cody Johnson on “The Old Guys.” After scrapping an entire album’s worth of material, Dan + Shay are finally owning their vulnerability — and hope every listener finds a song that speaks to them.

    Amazon Drones Set to Skyrocket Delivery | Springfield Missouri News

    Amazon is aggressively scaling its drone delivery service, targeting 500 U.S. cities by year’s end to bring fast, air-based deliveries—up to five pounds, in as little as 30 minutes—to suburban areas. This leap, more than six times current coverage, includes major metros like Chicago and Atlanta, while avoiding congested airspace. Despite hundreds of thousands of successful flights this year, challenges like trees, inflatable pools, and noise regulations persist. Competitors like Walmart are also developing drone tech, but still rely on human drivers. Amazon’s CEO envisions Prime Air delivering half a billion packages by decade’s end, blending drones with traditional logistics. FAA approval for beyond-line-of-sight flights and safety tech are key enablers as Amazon bets big on drones becoming mainstream.
