Last-Minute Tax Tips

Tax Day is tomorrow for the majority of people. Iris Solis from the California Franchise Tax Board and Raphael Tulino from the IRS join Insight with last-minute filing tips for state and federal income taxes. They will also explain what is needed to file for an extension, tax bill payment options, as well as scams to be on the lookout for.

Investigation into CA’s Most Dangerous Drivers

Of the roughly 40 million people in California, 28 million - or 70% - have a driver’s license. Getting behind the wheel is a privilege, not a right, that can be stripped away. But an investigation found that in California, the DMV routinely allows drivers with dangerous histories to keep their license. CalMatters Investigative Reporter Robert Lewis spent the past year looking into driving records statewide and found that nearly 40% of the drivers charged with vehicular manslaughter since 2019 currently have a valid license, and that the DMV has issued licenses to people less than a year after they allegedly killed someone on the road. In the most extreme cases, they have gone on to kill again. We reached out to the DMV for comment. They did not respond to this request before broadcast.

CalMatters is a nonprofit newsroom that partners with public media stations across the state. 

Artist Jack McTiernan

Artist Jack McTiernan joins Insight to discuss his exhibit Crossroads & Intersections at the ARTHOUSE Gallery in downtown Sacramento through May 5, which highlights how daily responsibilities distract from the beauty in everyday surroundings via an exploration in color and materials. Jack will be available for a Q&A session Sun. April 27 from 1 to 2 p.m.
