    For six years, Times Union reporter Larry Rulison has been trying to find Prestige Limousine & Chauffeur Service owner Shahed Hussain.

He's also the father of Nauman Hussain, who is in prison for the deaths of the 20 Schoharie limo crash victims. The elder Hussain disappeared in 2018, and stayed silent throughout the trial and conviction of his son. Now, he says his son has been diagnosed with cancer, and he's speaking out.

  5. Sammy Hagar still can't drive 55

    12 JULI

    Sammy Hagar still can't drive 55

    The song that propelled Sammy Hagar to rock stardom - the 1984 anthem of rebellion and fast living - came to him after he was pulled over and ticketed for speeding on I-87, just outside of Albany. Hagar says he wrote “I Can’t Drive 55” in his head as he continued on to Lake Placid, where he had a home near his son's boarding school. The former Van Halen lead singer and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer spoke to Patrick Tine about that song and his upcoming tour, where he’ll be joined by former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, guitarist Joe Satriani and drummer Jason Bonham.    He’ll be taking another trip up the Northway soon, playing SPAC on July 22.
