At times in your "Today’s News" section of your website you report various traffic accidents and road closures. It got me to wonder, since Vegas is a huge travel city, are there any figures on who are involved in the traffic accidents around Vegas or state-wide, in terms of what proportion involves locals and what involves non-Nevada residents? Because there are so many tourists, with their possible lack of knowledge of the roads in the area, it seems that the percentage would involve more non-Nevada residents than locals. Is that the case? I like your QoD the most, but your Today’s News is quite interesting and informational, too.

Two readers respond:
"Your 10/24/13 QoD answer says, 'Places like ... Panaca ... have at least one bar with some bartop video poker and slot machines, though no bona fide casino.' The Wikipedia entry for Panaca, NV says, 'It is the only municipality in Nevada to be 'dry' (forbidding the sale of alcoholic beverages), and the only community in Nevada besides Boulder City that prohibits gambling.' If Wiki is right, it sounds as if a Panaca bar with video poker would present a couple of conflicts -- what's the real story?"
And:
"Doesn't Cal-Nev-Ari have a casino, contrary to what today's QoD says? Not a huge one, but 30+ machines and at least one table."
