The Viktor Wilt Show

And the officer has arrived. What up, Lieutenant Crane? Well, one thing we wanna deal with is the truth. The truth? The truth.

Now I the truth doesn't seem very popular nowadays. That's what I'm here to talk to you about. Okay. What what truth do you have for me? I pulled in the parking lot, and I heard you say, do you know how many books I have?

Lots of them. Do you know yeah. Yes. And, I just wanna confirm. Are they all picture books?

Some of them have pictures. I prefer the ones with pictures, you know, because then you don't have to read the words. You can just look at the picture to find out what's happening. It makes it a lot easier in the, modern day and age of distractions. You know?

Like, I get, the brain running amuck while I'm trying to read, you know, thinking about all the garbage I saw on Facebook that day. I I do like your point there that, a, you know, I'm gonna clamp down on what's coming out of the library, but I'm not gonna watch what my kid's phone has on it. Exactly. Dude, I guarantee that you're much better off with your kids attempting to read a book than being fed. Like, I could pull up some of the most vile stuff you could imagine on YouTube.

Like, for example, recently, my daughter was visiting. This is the kind of dad I am. She was talking with me about how she became a fan of the band Nine Inch Nails recently and had seen the Closer music video, which, you know, it's not too wild. And I was like, okay. Let me tell you a story about my dad.

He had bought me this, Nine Inch Nails VHS set. You remember VHS with Teddy Graham? Yeah. For Christmas one year. So I'm watching it.

My dad walks in and he's like, what is this? What did we buy you? And I can't describe what happens in this music video for a song called happiness in slavery, but I will say that there's some nudity in it. Male nudity in this music video. Wouldn't think you'd be able to find that on YouTube.

Right? Well, my daughter was visiting. I'm like, let's see if this music video is online because you wanna see a wild Nine Inch Nails video. Here you go. Pulled it up on YouTube in two seconds.

Two seconds with every bit of content right there. You didn't have to log in and, you know, I yes. I'm 18. I swear. Everything's available on YouTube.

But what you did just stated really clarifies a couple of questions I've had about you. Who's who's asking questions about it? Parenting. Hey. She's an adult.

K. She's an adult, And I'm trying to introduce her to good entertainment. And it goes back to your father's parenting decisions. Hey. He, you know, went, what is it?

And then I'm like, dad, this is an awesome, you know, band. And then he just shook his head and went, dad, I'm gonna grow my hair out. I'm a play guitar. Yeah. Yeah.

And he was like a cowboy type, and he's like, alright. That's cool. You don't want those types. I don't know about them cowboys. I'm just waiting for the day when I see, online that, you know, you and your homies had to slap the cuffs on the librarian, drag them out of there kicking and screaming.

Well, anyhow, we need to get to some traffic school because we did have to start it early today. Traffic school time. (208) 535-1015 is the number to call. We'd love to have you live on the show doing it at a little bit different time today. So, sorry to those who later on go, what is it, but we're in traffic stand?

And let's tell them why. Oh, yeah. I don't even remember why. It's your gun or nor do you care. It's like, in one ear, out the other.

Alright. Cool. I call you in my deepest concerns, and you couldn't care less. You're a great counselor. Yeah.

Sure. Yeah. Alright. Fine. I'll be there, I think.

Yeah. That's what you told me. Yeah. Show up. I don't know if I'll be there.

If not, somebody else will be. Peaches will handle it if I'm gone, but, yeah. Alright. So, yes, what is going on, lieutenant ring? Well, we've discussed this many many times on your show.

More than once. Yeah. Yeah. It's almost like a roundabout. I got a roundabout story for you too.

Hey. We're trying to hire a front office evidence technician, and so I've got interviews at 09:00. Gotta go do an interview. Did see your application in the process. Yeah.

I don't recall you, letting me know that the position had opened up. That's right. I didn't tell you. You said evidence technician? You'd be in charge of all the good stuff.

Oh. I don't know what happened to certain doctors. I'm sure living large. I would imagine you do a background check on those people. That one gets a definite good background check.

Okay. Alright. I guess I'm out. K, Bear. You're live on Traffic School powered by the advocates.

Who's this? Oh, maybe I should turn the phone on. Hey, babe. How about that? Hi.

You're live on the show. Not expecting to have to do this thirty minutes early. Yeah. I'm still waking up. What's happening?

I I got a question for Luke Bennett Crane. I don't know if he knows the answer or not, but I thought I'd ask. More likely not. Are all that, road construction in Pocatello, are they gonna put an exit in at Chubbock Road? That's a great question.

I haven't seen the final plan on that, but are they ever gonna complete the construction? What is my question. I figured that was gonna be the question. Exactly. Well and I asked because I live just right off of Chubbock Road there.

Sir, you're a vote no? No. I would I'd be all for it. Okay. Alright.

It wouldn't up the traffic by your house. Well, yes and no. I mean, that I think that roundabout there would take care of a lot of the traffic. I I'm actually a fan of the roundabouts. I know.

Don't put that on the air. I was gonna say I am too. It's just unfortunate that people don't know how to use them. You know? Exactly.

They're efficient. So this is why Victor was gonna lose his mind because I was gonna tell him, I was in my personal vehicle. I'd come down to Idaho Falls, had to do some stuff. I'm at Lincoln and Hit at that roundabout trying to head home. That's a great one.

It is super busy, but there's a huge break for my side to go. Mhmm. And the guy ahead of me pulls up. No cars in the roundabout. No cars coming.

Line of cars behind us, and he pulls up, stops, looks both ways, and then proceeds. And I was like, Victor would lose his ever loving mind. Look to the left and go. James, this isn't rocket science, people. You know, this is a good way to find politicians, though.

You know, you pull up to a roundabout. Anybody who doesn't know how to use it, alright. Here. Call this number. You should run for office.

And this is you talking about that saying you're running for mayor. Well, you know, see, I would run for office and but there's, you know, maybe this is something we do need to talk to our, politicians about this. Because they'd love to talk to you. Yeah. There's this dumb rule that you have to offer them equal airtime.

So the fact that I have a show every day for four hours, if I was gonna run for office, I think we'd have to somehow let every single politician have four hours of radio a day, which I think would be funny because then people would really get to know them. You know? I'm all for it, but I I don't think the bosses are. So I I don't think it's fair. I think that it's, my rights being stripped away by the FCC or somebody else.

But I've noticed just lately that there's a lot of things you don't feel it's fair. That that is true. So, yeah. Any other questions, caller? No.

That that was it. I just I see all that construction right there by the the new overpass they just put in, and it looks to me like that's what they're gonna do. And I was just kidding. It would make sense, but I haven't I haven't paid attention going through there. ITD have something on their website?

Maybe you like it. They should have an overall picture. You could look that up. Yeah. Well, I mean, they also said that that was supposed to be done two years ago.

So it just opened not that long ago. Yeah. I recall as I was growing up, you know, Salt Lake, when you'd go to Salt Lake, I think there was about twenty years of, road construction that never seemed to end. So I I wouldn't really list it's like listening to the weatherman more than two days out. You know, just just let it slide.

But more than not, I am so happy to have good roads to travel on. Thank you, ITD. Yeah. They they do a pretty good job. Pretty good job.

Shout out to the ITD. Exactly. Well, Hey, you guys have fun and, thank you very much. Hey, good to hear from you, man. Have a good weekend.

You too. See you. See you. (208) 535-1015. The number to call for traffic school.

Okay. So you had your roundabout story. Was there something else you said you were gonna That's what I was gonna share with you. I was just thinking, if I had you with me, I could've pulled up the side of him, and I could've had you doing road rage at the passenger window. Go.

Look to the left. What is your problem? I got so frustrated at a, gas station the other day because I was, you know, trying to turn right. Get gas? Well, I got gas, and then I was trying to get back on the roadway.

And somebody wanted to pull into the turning lane. And so they had to cross, like, four lanes. They they just sat there forever, and there was no traffic coming because they wanted to wait for the light to go green so that there was enough room for them to get into the far left lane. Oh, yeah. I'm like, dude, you made me miss a green light.

Do you know who I am? Do you know who I am? Hi, caller. You're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?

This is Donna. Hey, Donna. What's up? Not much. Hey.

Real quick, Donna. You sound like too nice of a lady to be called in the program. I try not to call you guys because the main objective of your program is to razz people. But you're not getting the full purpose of this program. It's no longer educational.

It's just us being rude to the listeners. I like it. It's entertaining. Well, thank you, Donna. Appreciate that up in St.

Anthony where the big knife river construction is doing an overpass. It goes from 70 down to 50 down to 35. I know. It's so annoying. It it is annoying, but you know that they're not doing any construction in the winter.

There's no movement. There's no anything. Why is it still 35? Well and that's a great question because I have to travel through there, and I've asked the same thing. But, studies have shown.

They do these studies and all this fancy math work to determine what the speed limit should be. And the way they got you going on the off ramps and then back on the on ramps to go around that new build and with those, little bit of hill and elevation changes, that's what it's recommended. Because, see, I see a lot of the wee loos up there camping out waiting for somebody to hit 36. Oh, man. I'll tell you what.

We are doing our best to to get every one of them. I and I will tell you this, Donna. We're getting your call today, and I'm on your side. But at my office throughout the week, you wouldn't imagine the phone calls I get that say, do you know how many people pass me? Well and, you know, if you're doing 35 and they're still cooking 70, it is like That is a big difference.

Yes. Well, I also work at ITD and answer the phone, so I understand. Oh, you were baiting me. You were you were waiting to see if I throw a certain person under the bus, and then you're gonna walk down to his office. Hey.

Guess what? You hear what they said about you on K Bear? You don't know how to do us. Well, I appreciate you guys, and I appreciate you answering the phone. Thank you.

Hey, Donna. Would you take to your bosses that Victor was bad mouthing ITD? I said they were great. And I said, hey. I really appreciate what ITD does for us.

Would you make sure you take that message every day when you're training at home? I gotta deal with this. Well, you know where my desk is and you know where the d e's desk is and you know where the bomb's desk is and Kayebert's playing loud. I love it. I love that.

See, and people say that, you know, bunch of bums are listening to Kayebert, We've proven wrong daily. Thank you, Donna. Well, have a great day from this bum to yours. I wasn't calling you a bum. That's what other people have said.

It's hard to communicate with him, Donna. I try every Friday. Have a good one, guys. You too, Donna. Good to hear from you.

Alright. (208) 535-1015, the number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates. By the way, we're starting early, which also means we're ending early. So if you're waiting till, you know, 09:00 to call, you ain't gonna get to. You know what I liked about Donna's phone call?

What's that? It was clarifying that we are here to educate. True. Yeah. Not to harass Yeah.

Or make fun of, but to educate. Exactly. Yeah. I think we're the most educational program in radio nationwide. As a matter of fact You've got the award to prove it.

That's right. Look look at all them awards. They're lying up all over the place. Yet no pat on the back from the mayor. Not even a good job.

Well, you're a threat. Oh oh, yeah. Because I keep saying I'm gonna run for I I just let him know I can't run for office. I'm being discriminated against by the government, and I'm unable to run for office because of my job. Yeah.

That's great, everybody. That's why you get stuck with these puddin' heads, not the mayor. The mayor's great. Yeah. I'm just gonna run against them.

I I already determined I don't wanna run for mayor. It's too much work. I want an easy job city council. Do you know who the mayor's over? City council.

Right? That's why I'm saying the mayor's awesome. The mayor's great. The mayor of every city in East Idaho. Fantastic.

Alright. Let's check some of our, online questions. And those of you listening, you can call (208) 535-1015. Isn't passing a car on the right illegal? Misha would like to know.

She says it happens all the time and drives me nuts. Depends on where you're at. Right? If you're on a two lane or road going one direction with more than one lane, which makes two lanes, and they're traveling in the passing lane, what we would identify as a passing lane in Idaho. And, you can go around them in the travel lane.

Yeah. You can pass them on the right. Now another time you can pass on the right is if you're coming up to a vehicle that's making a left hand turn off a two way road. If you have enough room to leave two tires on the pavement, you can go around them on the right and pass them. As long as it's clear, you're not gonna affect traffic flow any other way.

Okay. So on the freeway, it is legal Yeah. If they're in the left lane, you can pass on the right. If they're yeah. Yep.

Now and you may be exceeding the speed limit. And if you are, you're taking your chances of getting the ticket. Right? But there's no code to say you can't pass them on the right if they're running slower in the passing lane. Okay.

But it could be unadvisable if you're passing, like, an 18 wheeler because they can't see you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And that's the no zone.

Right? If you can't see their mirrors, they can't see you. Okay. I the that's news to me. I thought it was technically illegal.

I mean, I've done it plenty of times because of you campers in the left lane. Don't know how to do the speed limit. Yeah. I don't know what your problem is. To run for office.

Don't seem like you get any brain cells, boy. Hey. No qualifications other than winning a popularity contest to run for office. So So tell me how that works because I know a lot of people that aren't that popular. Well, here's the thing.

If you put the right letter next to your name, you're gonna win. In California? Well, they are too. They are too. It depends where you live.

You gotta pick the right letter. You were trying to say. I just wanted get you to go. No. Depending on where you live, put the right letter next to it.

And that's why I have renamed myself Victor Wilt dash r. That's my official name. You just gotta know your, you gotta know your audience. Yeah. Yeah.

Exactly. Yeah. It's kinda like me with this show. I'm doing my best to, you know, defend everybody. K Bear, you're live on Traffic School powered by the advocates.

Who's this? This is Chris. Chris, what's up, dude? Hey. What's up?

First time chiming into the show. But I had a question for lieutenant Crane because and you may have already answered this at one point in time. I try to chime in when I can, but sometimes it conflicts with work. But, in most stop signs, whether they be, you know, the four way stop or the two way stop, out in the country, in town, wherever, they'll have that white line. And that white line, you know, from what I've always learned and understood is, you know, that's where you come to a stop to before you go.

But I've been in a ton of situations where the car in front of me, I don't know if they have a problem with depth perception, but they'll come to that line and roll past it, almost down to traffic, and I'll come up behind them parked at the line. And as soon as they go, am I legally okay just to go because I'm parked where I'm supposed to be parked? Yeah. That's a great question. That that's a great question.

The answer is this. If you're stopped at the stop line, they move, you have the right to go. Your responsibility to stop sign is to stop and then proceed with caution. Now what I love about your questions, I was at a restaurant this week eating, and this, waitress come up. She drew me a picture on a napkin, and she's like, I can't I don't get the opportunity to call into traffic school, but I got a question.

And she drew me a drew me a map, and on her map, she had a stop line, but then the posted stop sign was not near the stop line because there was no place to put the stop sign up by the stop line. And and so the answer to that is yeah. For your answer, yeah. You can stop and then proceed with caution if you're at the stop line. On her question is, why are they separated?

Well, because the proper place to stop and view traffic is at the stop line. The reason the stop sign is not there is because there's no place to plan it. They can't plan it out in the right turn bay lane or anything like that. Right? So let's say the stop line wasn't there, you would be responsible to stop at the posted stop sign.

So the stop line is important. If it's not there, you stop at the stop sign. Perfect. I just has always wondered that because I'm like, I I why do I really need to let off the brake for two seconds and put it back on then go? I mean Yeah.

Once you're stopped where I'm supposed to be. Yep. Once you're stopped, you just proceed with caution. Awesome. Thanks for clarifying that.

I appreciate it. Hey. Thanks for calling in for the first time. I always appreciate a new caller. But now if your two car's back Oh, come on now.

I'm serious. But, officer, I was only 10 cars back. That's right. Well, hey, man. I hope you have a great weekend.

Alright. You too. Appreciate it. Thank you. Peace.

Kay Barrett, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates and make it snappy because we've about got to, end this program. Who's this? Hey, you crazy Carl. How you guys doing, man? Hey.

I got a lot of stuff to advertise. Now Carl, was that you who posted in the KBAR group? Oh, people that don't turn right on a red light drives me insane. Okay. I I have things to do.

I got places to go. I got car shows. Yeah. I got money to spend on nothing. Got time and money to waste, boys.

So Carl posted asking us to inform the public that it's okay to turn right on a red light if there isn't any oncoming traffic. And I said, well, if it's a round bulb bulb. Right. If it's a aerobobe, Carl, you are given some bad, bad advice. I know.

So collect your penalty fees at carlcarshow.car. Submit your request there. Oh, man. So, real quick question. ATVs and off road motorcycles on residential neighborhoods.

Driving by crazy. There was some neighborhood on a four wheeler the other day. Could be a lie. I mean, it's these kids not being in their houses playing video games. Right.

Gosh. I mean, I I'm not gonna call them in. They're not bothering anybody, but But I've called the customer. You literally just called the cops to tell him about it. I'm not gonna tell on these kids, but I want to know.

Well, I mean, it's it's Idaho. Everybody does it. But, you know, how often, I mean, if you see somebody on the road as an officer, would you pull them over? Oh, absolutely. Yeah.

You know, don't it's not a good look to see something happening, and then just drive by. Right. Yeah. Now Just turn the other cheek. You know?

Yeah. Now if the vehicle, like a four wheeler, has certain things, like, you know, a license plate, turn signals, maybe a headlight, my brake light. Yeah. Insurance. Then you could drive it on a city road.

Right? Not a 10 year old like Carl said. Oh, okay. Yeah. So, yeah, please, watch your kids.

Nor an adult that has lost their driver's license due to a DUI or any other reason. Four wheeler. It's funny. When you're hey. I remember But I did have an individual arrested for DUI years ago, and he got around that by driving a farm tractor to town.

He'd drive it back and forth to town because you don't have to have a driver's license to drive a farm implement. Really? It doesn't make it you you know what kind of damage you could do if you were drunk in a tractor? Now he can't drive the tractor drunk, but he didn't have to have a driver's license. So if he was drinking and driving it, we could deal with that.

Right? Okay. Because it's a motorized vehicle. What if you're just hung over? Yeah.

What if you're just upset about the last night? Alright, Carl. Well, I we No. No doubt. Unfortunately, better get moving because I know lieutenant Crane has to go, do some, you know, actual work.

So let's let's take one more call. You wanna do one more? Let's do one more. Alright. Thanks, Carl.

Alright. Guys, have a good weekend. We'll see you, man. Bye. K Bear.

Oh, I dare you. K Bear, you're live on Traffic School powered by the advocates. Who's this? This is Adam. Adam, what's up?

I was gonna ask lieutenant Crane, if you got a dollar for every time you said proceed with caution, would you be a rich man? I can promise you this. I'd be able to pay my insurance, and I'd be retired right now. That one that one and well, the bottom line is You know what? I I would come in here one day, and Victor does an impression of me.

And that's the first thing he said. Well, the bottom line. Just imagine if that were the day you got paid out for all of that. You'd be like, you know what? I'm out.

I would have left my car in this parking lot and called the bosses and said, if you want it, Victor's got the keys. I need a new car, so that'd be great to get good gas mileage. That's all I care about. Well, appreciate it, Adam. Yeah.

I hope you too, man. Have an awesome weekend. Look at this. Of course, when we're like, the show's gotta end. And we're trying one more?

You wanna do one more? Yeah. Let's get you. You're alone. Let's get me in trouble.

Alright. Alright. I'm down to get you in trouble at the job for once. Kaye Berry, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?

Chelsea. Chelsea, what's up? So Chelsea heard we're taking calls from nice people today. I guess so. I don't know what's going on with these callers.

Hey. Hi, Derek. Call. Oh, yes. Thank you for saying I'm nice.

There you go. So I'm running late for work, and you guys are early. So I I'm running late too. We got something in common. Okay.

So I used to live in Phoenix, and this was, like, the biggest fear of mine was, like, the four lanes. Right? I thought you were gonna say scorpions, tarantulas. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

That was terrifying. Or 28 degree heat. I don't know. Gila monsters. Oh, yeah.

The traffic. The traffic in the 20 degree heat. Yeah. That was bad. My swimming pool not being at the right temperature.

Pool's too hot. Yes. Oh my gosh. The pools were heated. It was weird.

By the sun. It was freaking weird. So, so they have those interstates or the highways that have, like, multiple lanes. Right? Oh, really?

Right. Yeah. Yeah. We talked about ITD earlier. Take note.

And we love you, and you're the best. You're the best. That was Victor, folks. Yep. So, I was worried that, like, you know, I'd be in, like, the far left lane and somebody else would be in the far right lane, and then we would, like That would happen often in Phoenix.

I've been there. Right? And it never happened while I was there, like, us switching lanes at the same time and coming together in the Sorry. Oh. Oh.

Oh. Well, you know, nice people swear. So yes. Only when they mash their thumb. Let's see if I can mark this in the recording too, so I can find it.

Unlike the last time I had somebody dump out. All right. Anyhow, go ahead with your question. So this actually happened to me in, Portland. You know, my biggest fear, so she gives us a dialogue of feedings and now all of a sudden, we're in Portland.

Well, I can tell you this. I I'd much rather drive in Phoenix than Portland any day. Next thing you know, we're gonna be on the East Coast. Right. So you you're in the middle lane.

You got people coming. Oh, it's just on the left lane. They're on the right lane. They both signal To go to the middle. Go to the middle.

Yeah. Well, I don't I'm not sure if this guy signaled. But, so I was further ahead with guys are parallel with him. Right. Yeah.

But I was in I, you know, I was a little bit further up ahead, and he was a little bit behind. And we merged into the middle lane, like, almost at the same time. Did he pit you? Wondering, like, Did he pit you? No.

Okay. It was close. It was a close one. I I saw him, and I, like, you know, not slowed down, but I corrected so I wouldn't be in in the middle lane. K.

But I was wondering, like, if there had been a collision where I'm further ahead and he's behind, who would be more at fault? I'm pretty sure both of us would be at fault, but would You answered your question there. So what happens, you're both responsible to make sure it's safe to make that lane change before you do it. And so when that happens and the officer would have come and taken the report, he would have just noted that both vehicles, one was making a left hand turn, one was making a right hand turn to, gain another lane, and then that would be submitted to your insurance, and they would do these fancy negotiations to decide culpability. That is the perfect time to call the advocates injury attorneys for sure because insurance is definitely gonna try to nickel and dime me on that one.

Right. Yeah. Yeah. I was just, wondering if, like, somebody would be more at fault though. Okay.

I guess, equally to blame, it sounds like. That one's gonna be pretty close if you're hitting in the middle lane there because neither one of you can see your tail, signal lights, and both of you are responsible to make sure the lane's clear. So it is important to see the movement. Even though you can't see the signal lights, what's the movement of the vehicle to my far right? Yeah.

Yep. Okay. Alright. I was just wondering because I'm a I'm ahead and it's harder for me to see. Yeah.

Well, you're a leader. You're a leader. Okay. A leader with a potty mouth. Yes.

Most of them are. You know, they're just gonna hate it. Yeah. Behind closed doors. Oh, you can only imagine.

Yes. It's awful. Truck drivers. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Well, hey. We appreciate the call today, and, hope you have an awesome weekend. And, Yeah. Lieutenant Crane, you as well. I'm out of here.

Have a good day. Alright. Bye. See you. And thank you all.

We'll catch you next Friday, 08:45 for Traffic School powered by the advocates. Traffic school is a production of river bend media group. To get more info on the show or to contact us, hit up our website, riverbendmediagroup.com.
