The Virginia State Police says ten people died in crashes on state highways during the Labor Day weekend. Eight deadly crashes were investigated over the four-day holiday. Crashes in Northampton and Henry counties were each responsible for two deaths. Pedestrians were killed in crashes in Caroline County and Lynchburg. Fourteen people died in crashes during last year's Labor Day holiday.
A Chinese study finds that teens who are severely addicted to short-form videos have poorer sleep quality and higher levels of social anxiety. Platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels have popularized the short-term format. The videos typically last between 15 seconds and two to three minutes and feature quick edits, music and are designed for sharing on mobile devices. Their findings are published in the journal BMC Psychology.
