Traffic School - 08/02/2024

Just talking about, I brought the little kitten that you, hooked me up with to the vet this morning to get fixed. Boy, was she stoked to get picked up and go for a car ride. She hates car ride. When I picked her up, at your place and brought her back home, no big deal. But then she did one car ride with the other cat.

When I took them both to the vet to get some shots a couple months ago, and she saw how he reacted to the car ride, which is full blown meltdown. And so now that's what she does anytime. So poor little thing. I don't think she's gonna have a very fun day today. Been doing the a lot of different work on the poor little kitty.

Oh. Necessary. Then she gets to rock the cone. Yeah. I thought she was gonna have a normal day.

No food. Until the vet you go. So, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for traffic school powered by The Advocate's Injury Attorneys 208-535-1015 the number to call. We would prefer you join us live because live callers make it more fun, but we do have a bunch of questions that were submitted online. Why are you crying, Lieutenant Crane?

It's okay. It's okay. So sad about that kid. I know it's it's okay. This is a normal procedure.

Allergies, they've been that smoke been messing with me bad. Allergies and they're starting to cut grain. Oh, so it's just gonna get worse. Yeah. Yeah.

It's fantastic. Alright. Well, if you need some Zyrtec, I got you hooked up. I got some Zyrtec. You got some stuff.

I got the hard stuff then, Zyrtec. That's right. Get we're we're wildin' up in here. We're wildin'. I get some vitamins.

Take it because I can't take pills without liquid, and you're not you're not adult enough to have a liquid in here. Yeah. We're not allowed to have drinks or food in the studio. You can't take a pill just dry? Even a little tiny Zyrtec?

Probably not. I'm kind of a pansy. Alright. Well, you know, I've I've got my things that I'm pansy about as well. I talked about birds and snakes earlier.

Not a big fan. Of birds? I don't like I mean, I look at them from afar, but, like, you know, people who have parrots for pets. It's weird to me. I would not wanna hold a bird.

They got dinosaur feet. They're creepy. They they're lizards with feathers. They're weird. They got sharp beaks.

They peck at you. They'll peck your eyes out. I've seen it in the movies. Only on on a desert when you've passed out from lack of water, then they dehydration, then they come and get you. They eat your eyes.

Yeah. It's what they do. And, I mean, if you've ever had, like, a hummingbird by your head, it's like a giant bee. I don't like those either. Who are you hanging out?

They're they're around. They're around. I like watching them fly backwards. They are neat. Again, I like them from afar.

But when they're around my head, not a big fan. Have you ever seen those hummingbird moths? Yes. Extra creepy. Extra it's a combo of a bird and a, like, a bee and a moth.

I'm, not a fan. Not a fan. Alright, listener. You're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. What scares you?

Oh, all the drivers. All the drive that's fair. Good point. That is fair. People, I almost got ran into on my way back from the vet today.

I'm on Woodruff on the sidewalk. No. I was driving. There's a guy in the middle turning lane, and I guess my truck's hard to see because he almost made a left from a ways down. You know, he's sitting there for a while.

Finally, when I'm getting close to him doing 35, just whips out in front of me. I it was a slam on the brakes situation. Thinking, what can I do today to tick this guy off? I know. And I'm, you know, yelling out no.

I didn't yell out the window because you never know what kind of lunatic you're dealing with. You know, I I don't recommend engaging with, you know, bad drivers. They might, follow you. They're probably having a bad day, so you don't wanna mess with people having a bad day. No.

No. I've I've read all the news stories about crazy people. No, I just kept going and was like, what an idiot. Hopefully that's not one of our listeners. So what's up.

I think that the person that posted on the Facebook thing has a very valid question about whether it's legal to use a pit maneuver on somebody going 25 at a 45. Okay. And they said they were asking for a friend. The way that question is phrased makes me think that this may maybe happen to somebody they know or something like that. All right.

Pit maneuver on a cargo in 25 and a 40 asking for a friend. I don't know what you got. Lieutenant crane. If you got the insurance to cover it, you do whatever you want. No.

Are, are you, yeah. So are are you asking if it's illegal for an officer to do that? I mean, I would assume if there's a certain reason for it, maybe. Oh, if they're doing 25 and a 40, we can pit them all day long. Pick up the pace.

I wish they would pit everybody who's doing 25 and a 40. That's for sure. Get out of my way. You know, so we got a new push bar so we can pit even better and more often. I have noticed for whatever reason lately, there are people driving very slowly on Sunnyside and 17th.

So let me ask you. What makes you happy? People complain when they drive too fast. People complain when they drive too slow. I want people to do exactly the speed limit all the time.

You know what makes me happy? We're about to hear. Complaining. Yes. Complaining.

You and Victor. You and Victor. I have never complained at all in life, let alone on this radio show. I had another question too real quick. Sure.

So I went to those, what did you call those? Figure 8 races? Some people call them. Yeah. Redneck Roundup?

Races. Oh, okay. That was that was quite a lot of fun, actually, but I'm just curious. How do you keep track of how many times the cars have gone around? Because I lose track all the time.

I got a good friend that says what I do is I just watch it for 10 minutes, and then I throw the green flag in the air. Good enough. I wouldn't be surprised because then they so they stopped going and then they start going again, and I'm like, how do you keep track of that? Yeah. I I pretty much can keep focus on the first three drivers and hope something serious don't happen, but to back me up, I've got, lap counters up in the crow's nest.

And if I get behind, they'll shout down to me who's where. Nice. Oh, okay. That's I wondered if you had somebody else helping you because that that's real confusing. It's it's a lot of fun though.

I I had a blast watching them. There you go. August 16th, Madison County Fairgrounds. Oh, going out to Rexburg. Yep.

Night of the fair there. Friday night at the fair in Rexburg, Idaho. Now I don't know if you're aware, but I heard they started, selling Mountain Dew at BYU Idaho. This might get wide. I know.

It's gonna be crazy. So everybody be be warned. If you're heading out to the figure 8 races Be ready to party. It's gonna be crazy. Yeah.

If I can if I can stand to drive through Rexburg, I'll I'll, come check it out because there's a lot of construction going on, man. It's crazy. I've heard of about a little bit of construction in Rexburg for the last many months doing this progress on it. I I drive out from I I live in Mud Lake, and the exit that I need to go to to get to Rexburg is closed. So I have to go clear all the way around.

And they have that diverging diamond thing, which is kinda cool, but they need to get all those cones Kinda cool but not there. Cool. Finish it up. Well, they just need to they just need to finish up the construction. The polite way of me saying, this is kinda cool, but not real cool.

Yeah. It'd be cool if everyone around here knew how to use it, but they don't. Yeah. That'd be super cool. Well, appreciate the call.

Don't pit anybody who's doing 25, everybody. I know it's annoying, but just patiently go around them unless, oh, the worst is when there's 2 of them right in front of you. You're like, get Oh, yeah. Get on the freeway, and there's a semi pass and another semi, and one of them is going about 1 mile faster than the other one. I think they follow them for 3 miles.

They do it on purpose. You guys are a lot of important places to be that I don't like to see. I don't I'm in a hurry. I'm in a very big hurry. I'm in a hurry to get home and get to my house and do nothing.

That's right. Exactly. My recliner awaits. Well, appreciate the call today. Hope you have an awesome weekend.

Yep. You too. Right on. Guys. See you.

Bye. 208-535-1015, the number to call for traffic school powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Lots of online questions, posted on Facebook. Is that because you haven't checked them in a couple years? In a week.

I made a post last week, and I never looked at it because we had lots of callers last week. So as I always say, callers get priority. If you post a question online or email it, you know, you might not get your question answered. If you wanna participate like a real listener, if you call, we may not get the answer to you. That's true.

That's true. Let's see. Is it illegal to drive with a broken out rear windshield? Eric would like to know. Eric, you would be just fine.

Go ahead and get in a side job. You make a little extra money and replace it when you can, but it's not illegal to drive without the rear window. Okay. Alright. I mean, it could suck depending on the time of year.

Yeah. We do live in Idaho. It doesn't sound very wonderful. Really right now or in winter. Yeah.

Vacuum the broken glass out of the back seat before you put your kids there. Man, have you ever, broke a window inside of your your vehicle? Like, oh, the, back window on my shell broke one time. I was driving down a dirt road, and I just looked back and all of a sudden, I'm like, that window looks weird. Is it really dirty?

And then it just started crumbling. Oh, man. I was finding glass in the bed of my truck for, like, 2 years. I'd vacuum it out, sweep it out. Next next thing I know, Or glass.

Just it's just coming out of nowhere. Like, where where is this glass coming from? My daughter wants to know what is both of y'all's dream car. I don't know what my dream car is. Really?

I mean, you get to just drive a sweet muscle car for work. So what what is your dream car? Do you even have an answer? I I think this sounds pretty basic, but and I actually probably have it and that's just a Ford F350 Powerstroke. Just a big powerful truck.

Just something I can use on a daily basis. Yeah. I mean, right now, my dream car would be one that gets good gas mileage. What a Prius? You should ask it in this way.

Your dream car, you had enough money to drive it if you actually own it. Yeah. Yeah. Like, could you could you afford to just fill it up and drive around? Because I'm sure there's more fun vehicles available than my current dream car, which is just one that's not my truck.

Or cover the insurance on it if you are driving it around. Exactly. Yeah. You get something nice. Boy, do they It's not even nickel and diamond yet.

I I did used to drive a 7 tone 58 Chevy pickup. It was a first fee pickup, actual pickup I purchased. Right on. And, was in high school at 7 tone. You could see the, roadway underneath the floorboards because it was rotted away.

I had some friends with vehicles that you could see the road through the floor. And, I'm thinking if I had enough money, I'd have one of those completely restored. That'd be pretty cool. Just drive it on weekends. There are some of those old cars.

I I'm bad with names of things, but some of those old classic cars that I think if you fixed up, you know, modernized them, put in a sweet stereo, some AC, one of those would be really cool because they they look neat. That's interesting you bring up the stereo because I paid, like, $750 for this pickup when I was in high school. I went down. There was a guy traveling through town. He was selling stereo systems and installing them around the street corner at the top.

That sounds legit. Yeah. It actually was pretty good. So I show up there. 1 of our locals was making friends with him and hanging out with him.

When I pull in there, I end up dropping $1500 on a stereo system in this truck. He's just shaking his head. He's like, I know you didn't even pay that much for the truck. Hey. I absolutely understand that one.

You you gotta be able to listen to tunes and my stereo in my truck sucks. It's you know, it it works. It plays music. There are speakers. But if you have one with a nice sub in it and it just pounds, very satisfying, very satisfying, especially when you're driving down the road, listening to, like, extreme metal.

And so it just sounds like it's very different than the people listening to rap music. If I could ever get you out on the boat, I don't have the nicest boat, but I have one of the nicest stereo systems in on the water. Have you even gone out and done any boat in this year? Very little, but we've been out a few times. Okay.

I'm yeah. Usually, you're like, hey. Come out, and then you can shame me the next week because I didn't make it. So but I am gonna be coming out your way soon, so maybe we should, make that happen at the same time. That would be cool.

Yeah. Yeah. Make your son work and we go out on a boat. American dream. That's right.

That's what kids are full. Alright. Yeah. Sorry, Taryn. Don't know what the dream car is.

Let's see. Dave wants to know or we already answered Dave's question. How about, Crystal would like to know, is it legal to go over the speed limit to pass? And there are situations where it would be. There are.

And and what that is, is if you're on a 2 lane road, one lane going each direction, and the vehicle ahead of you is traveling under the then you got to get back in your lane and go drop back down to the speed limit. There you go. Then you gotta get back in your lane and go drop back down to the speed limit. There you go. The only situation, Crystal.

So behave yourself. Come on, you turds. Call us up. 208-535-1015. The number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates.

You bunch of yell belly. That's right. What are you, chicken? You afraid? Alright.

Let's see. A lot of talk about your nickname being the potato law that I couldn't remember last week. For some reason, that just doesn't ring. It doesn't have to say there was something about that day. That day, if you would have only been there.

And I don't know if it seems like peaches might have sent me a potato law song. Let me see here. Let me look. It's like that comedian that was called tater salad. Oh, yeah.

Tater salad. That's my my pseudonym. My name is And my alias. Are you dater? You got me.

Ron White. Yeah. He's he's great. Now I don't know where that, that message from Peaches went, but I think he did make a potato law song. It might have been a rap song.

I don't know. The potato law. Let's see. We've got, will I be pulled over if my dome light is on while driving? You remember back in the day, your dad would be like, I'll get arrested.

Can't have the light on while we're driving. That that reminds me when you go into a restaurant, there's little kids there. You walk in immediately. The parents are like, and if you don't start doing what you're supposed to be doing, I'm gonna have him arrest you. Yeah.

And we wonder why the kids don't like us. You wanna go with that guy over there? They call him the mountain. Alright? They call him the potato law.

You wanna know why? This is a mountain that enforces the potato law. That's right. That's the law of the land around here, potato law. This is Idaho.

So as far as the dome light goes, no. You can drive with your dome light on. It's just very aggravating and hard to see a lot of times depending on how bright it is. Yeah. Yeah.

It's like when one of the kids will roll down the back seat window, like one of them, just exactly. Like, stop it. Roll the window, but don't touch that. And then you turn the childproof lock on the window. Do you know what all I'm accomplishing up here in the captain seat?

That's right. So there you go, Draco. No, I am the captain. Let's see. He was also complaining about new headlights saying they are far more distracting and blinding and, asking if it's illegal to drive with your high beams on in town or saying that low beam is brighter than some high beams anyway.

So Depends on the car. Right? If you have an old old classic car, your high beams were probably not as bright as somebody else's dim lights on these brand new cars. Yeah. As far as is it illegal to drive with your bright lights on in town?

No. It's not. As long as you're not affecting the vision of any oncoming traffic. So if there's no oncoming traffic, you can have your high beams on. But if there's oncoming traffic, you need to dim them within 500 feet.

Alright. Great. Let's see. Is it legal to keep pace with an officer if they are speeding but have no lights or sirens on? It is illegal.

Unfortunately, the Idaho code does give us the opportunity to drive above the speed limit. And so depending on what business they're conducting, that doesn't mean you have the same business that you're conducting. Dang it. I was hoping I could get somewhere nice and fast. You guys always ruin all my plans.

Alright. Sorry, James. Can't keep pace with an officer. By the way, listeners, you can call and join us live at 208 keep pace with that. Yeah.

Come on. What? You can't keep up with us on this little talking action here? Wrong with you. Come on, listeners.

Call us up 208-535-10154 Traffic School powered by The Advocates. Can electric bikes be used to take up an entire lane or do they have to be on the side? I have a feeling that anything relating to bikes and being in lanes of the road is going to annoy me. Lieutenant Crane, so what what you got? If you're on an electric bike, it's just like a pedal bike.

If you're out in the lane, you gotta operate as a motorized vehicle. So you gotta keep the pace Yep. Keep the pace. With traffic. Follow the laws.

Don't be backing up traffic. Yep. Yep. Exactly. Can't just mow through a red light.

Alright. Kay Bear, you're live on Traffic School powered by the advocates injury attorneys. Who's this? Mark. Mark.

What's hi, Mark. What's up? Well, I'm excited to be calling. I've got tired of you, you know, insulting us. Shut up.

Well, you guys are talking about lights, and I pulled into my And his light come on. He's at 5:30 in the morning. And my boss was just sitting in the parking lot, and his lights Are off. He's at dim light. And I thought he had IVs on.

And I was wondering, is there any type of, legislation going on about Setting in parking lots? Bright lights. Because, I mean, I have a 20 year old vehicle, and it's got, you know, the dim yellow looking lights. So and I don't feel the need to I mean, unless I'm, you know, 80 years old, then I don't need that much light to see in town at least. I'll tell you this, Mark.

I actually had to replace a headlight the other day, and if you walk into a an auto parts store and you look at the rack, any vehicle can have the bright lights, shiny white nerds. You just have to pay more. And I do not. I know. So yeah.

I mean I'm I'm gonna answer Mark's question this way. I don't think any legislation is gonna get passed that your boss can't sit in his own parking lot and have his bright lights on. Probably not. And I mean, I'm sure they've done some testing on, you know, when the manufacturers are making these lights, like, there there's a limit to what they can be. What becomes a concern is when you have those bright lights and you do something to the height or adjustment of the vehicle, and you don't adjust the lights to go with that.

Yeah. So they're pointing up at an incoming driver. Dot point. Yeah, they can be held accountable and they can be cited for failure to have their headlights adjusted properly. Because I think, sales for transition lenses are gonna be skyrocketing too.

Now, Mark, have you ever driven a vehicle with those bright white lights? No. Oh, it's great. You know, once you do that, you're like, I get it now. I can see.

Fantastic. This is amazing. If people can't see, then I guess there's more accidents out there. Yeah. So what Victor's saying is most lights are designed to drive at about 55 miles an hour at night.

He wants those lights that you can see so far ahead of you and so far to the sides of you that you can drive 95. Yeah. I wanna be able to see deer that are at least a mile away. That reflection in their eyes. There's something down there.

Which is interesting because most people you're in the vehicle with them or driving. You're like, hey. Did you see those animals? What? What are you talking about?

Yeah. They're standing in the road. Remember I slammed on the brakes. Your face went into the windshield. Oh, remember you're mad because you lost your place on your phone?

So there you go, Mark. Semi truck drivers that used to, have those back 10 years ago, And, they were yeah. They'd always dim them though. Man, 10 years ago. Can you even believe we've made it this far?

No. Honestly, if you told me when I was 32, I'd be 40. What? I'll make it to 42. That's that rules.

How to live my life differently. 10 years ago, we were just starting doing this show together. Was it 10 years ago? About 10 years ago, I started the morning show. Yep.

That was a decision they probably like to recalculate. Yeah. It might be right around now, actually, August. I think it was August 2014. So as you can see, the company's, you know, throwing me a big 10 year celebration as the longest running morning more years.

Well, thank you, Mark. I hope so. I do too because this this is a career that usually don't last that long. I know. I am the longest.

Have to adjust the the questions a little bit, but, I mean, maybe another topic. I know. We've been answering deal with. We've been answering the same questions for 10 years, Mark, and people still keep listening. So Yeah.

Alright. Well, hey, you guys have a great day, and keep rocking. Hey. Thanks, Mark. Have a good one, man.

You too. Peace. See, now if you're having a bad day like Mark, call in. Your day will get better. Yeah.

We just improved Mark's day. He he called in Mark. Mark. And then by the end of it, he was happy. Yeah.

So if you're feeling down, call me and lieutenant Crane. We'll brighten your day. Sunshine. Alright. 208-535-1015.

The number to call for traffic school. Let's see here. Right now, there is construction going on by the river and No kid? Did they just start that? Apparently breaking news.

Nope. Sorry. Callers take priority. There's destruction throughout the state. K Bear, you're live on Traffic School powered by The Advocates.

Who's this? Hey. It's Dakota. Dakota. Well, see now Dakota's already happy.

He's ready. He's amped. He's hitting the ground running here. I have my question ready, and I've wondered this for a long time. Are you gonna read it?

Do you have it written down and read it? No. I memorized it. Do you have a prompter? Are tinted taillights illegal?

Oh, tinted taillights. And so what do you think the answer to that question is? I've heard that I'm not asking you what you heard. What what would you guess? What do you want it to be?

Seagull. Yeah. Unfortunately, you're wrong. Yeah. There can't be any film tint.

What's that? How dark or anything? Nope. No film, no tint, no spray paint, no nothing on them. It has to be red.

Yep. Yep. Can you believe that? Well, that No matter how good it makes your vehicle look. So is it if you get into if somebody rear ends you and you have tinted taillights, is that your fault because they couldn't see your brake light?

Now it wouldn't be your fault, but what happens is anytime you're involved in a traffic collision, we do the report, we do the fact finding of is there any laws that have been broken? Is there any rules of the road that have been broken? So let's say, the car that rear ended you, obviously, they're falling too close. K? If you stop, they're falling too close.

But the other thing that would be noted on that traffic crash is that you had tinted taillights, which is also a violation of Idaho code. We would turn that traffic, investigation over. Your insurance companies would request it, and then that's why you pay your insurance. They would battle back and forth, and what they'd say is, hey. You know what?

Yeah. We rear ended you. We'll accept 80% of the fault, but 20% of it was could have been that those taillights were covered up and we didn't see them. And so they'll argue a percentage and and decide who's gonna pay what from that. That sounds like a lot of hassle.

Exactly right. And that's why in an accident like this, what you're gonna wanna do is call the Advocates Injury Attorney. Do you wanna go back to school then? That's right. You just I didn't know what it was.

Ben, where are you? You call Ben and get him and Damien Dylan with this so you just can avoid the headache. You step back. You call me. You say, hey.

I had 10 taillights, and I don't want no part of this. Right on, guys. Thank you. Hey. Thanks, man.

And I drive like an idiot. Have a good one, man. 208-535-1015, the number to call for traffic school. Those of you who are calling, feel free to call back. Okay.

So Cassie was talking about this road construction and says there are no lanes painted. Are there still technically 2 lanes? And what do you do if someone's technically taking up both lanes? Oh, this is outrageous. I don't know where she's taking up.

Here's what I do is I start hitting my steering wheel and raging. Get to the side. You're taking up both legs. And then I'm, you know, just kinda wait. So she said, this is by the river.

That's what she says By the river, no lanes painted. And I guess prior, there must have been 2 lanes. So she's wondering if if there are The river runs all the way through Southeast Idaho. So do we know where we're talking? Yeah.

It could be in a lot of different places. But, yeah, if there's no lanes designated or painted on the lines, unfortunately, that's gonna be hard to enforce. Yeah. Yeah. You're just gonna kinda have to be patient.

You could have some of them out of staters rolling through. You could drive through Wyoming to miss it and come back. There you go. Get a flight to where you need to go. I I don't know.

Sorry, Cassie. Hey. I hear they're getting closer to the Jetson style cars. You know, I've talked about that recently. There was some I think it was a Minnesota law that they passed relating to this.

I don't think there will ever be flying cars as far as a a common thing because alright. We we've been doing this show for 10 years. People can't do a roundabout. People can't do a roundabout. Exactly.

You think we could have people flying around in the sky? No. There'd be people crashing into houses. What do you mean this is a no fly zone? Exactly.

We're never going to have flying cars because the public's not responsible. Can I have an open container in my open flying car? Okay. Bear, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?

This is Cal. Cal, what's up? I have a question. Sweet. As a truck driver here in this great town of Rexburg Are you are you contained within the city limits?

No. I am not. But yeah. I'm constantly going through this intersection. I think that's a double answer.

No, but yes. Yeah. But, you know, this new intersection, and they got the middle exit all closed down, and everybody Yeah. Worth a lot. It's the diamond.

How many calls are we taking about this intersection of Rexburg in the last, like, 2 months? It's like all of our calls. People cannot stand this thing. I gotta go see it. It ain't that bad.

It's it's the, people that the light changes, and they're completely blocking the whole road. And I can't get a little distracted. Well, there's a railroad in in somewhere, but Alright. This sounds like a nightmare. You got this new intersection.

You got the river with no no lines painted on the road. No line. Yeah. There you go. Yep.

You're dealing with these jacked up on Mountain Dew BYU students. It's a it's a mayhem in which you're not driver with an overdue logbook. I'm running over my time. Just stay away from Rexburg, everybody. Block when everybody's blocking the road and I can't get through, can I just sit there and blare my train horn at him?

Oh, he's got a train horn on his commercial vehicle. Oh. Sometimes people commit crimes, and they try to say so far under the radar, but then they let that one little slip out. So even commercial vehicles, train horn a no go. No train horn on.

No no anything but a train. Alright. Sorry, Cal. You're gonna get you're gonna get busted. Then I'll just use.

How about that? He's dueled up. I see, I can't understand him. He went alien on us. He said I'll use my other truck horn.

Ah, okay. Because I heard Yeah. The other the other trained. Yeah. He went, adult school teacher, Charlie Brown, on his Yeah.

I was gonna say, you're driving by the site? You sound like you're aboard a UFO for a minute there. It's up to Island Park. Okay. Oh, yeah.

I'm up on the bench. Alright, Cal. Hey. You're out of your area then. You get back down those city limits.

Yeah. Get back to Rexburg, man. Come on. Okay. Well, thanks, Cal.

You have a good one, man. Cal, I'll I'll pump out. He's got some of that new Mountain Dew. He he said he was in Rexburg. Gotta watch out.

People drinking that live wire. The stuff with the extra coffee. Fresh stuff. That fresh stuff's strong. Take the top off that before you pass it around.

I'd say, yeah. Share it with your friends. One bottle too much for the average. What's a Rexburg person? A Rexburgian?

People were asking that online, like, what do people call people from Idaho Falls? Like, if you're an Idaho resident, you're an Idahoan. What are you in Idaho Falls again? An Idaho Falls site? There's no word for that.

Is there? A transplant from California is what I would say. Oh. Now people did, Josh came up with a good one for Rexburg, and I totally agree with it. A Rexburger.

Woah. Yep. I'm a Rexburger with cheese. Well, you and Josh really come up with some earth shattering information and results when you're together, don't you? We do.

We're we're working for the, benefit of the community around here. Yeah. We wanna make this a better place. No wonder your bosses are so proud. That's right.

They love us. They love us. When we get you 2 together, we almost get something done. Almost. Almost.

Close. Alright. Well, jeez, that that went by kind of fast. Or are we done? I we could be.

I mean, it's 9:22, so that's a good almost 40 minutes a show. So yeah. This is not a talk show. This is a music show. Who needs music?

Right? I've been talking a lot lately. I'm waiting to get yelled at for it, but so far, it hasn't happened. I think that just boosts you. It boosts me?

To get yelled at just makes you better at what you do. It depends who does the yelling. You know? If it's Jade, then I'm like, oh, you wanna tell me that. And then I start poking at the bear.

If it's the other boss, it's like, yes, sir. Sir, I won't say another word. Alright, folks. Catch it next Friday. Traffic School powered oh, look at this.

Somebody's gotta call at the last minute. I guess we'll give them a chance. K, Bear. You better make it fast. Hello?

Oh, hi. We're gonna beg you to call, and then when you do, we're gonna shame you. Who's this? This is Shane. Shane.

Shane the shamer. That's right. We're gonna shame Shane. Shane, what's your question for traffic school powered by the advocates? Yeah.

So I I live in Chubbock and, you can sell your house. There's other homes, other places. Yeah. I mean, they got Mountain Dew in Rexburg now. Yeah.

Okay. Shane wants no part of us. Just this question answered. Alright, Shane. It's okay.

I'm tropics mild stomping grounds. You know, we used to go to the Pine Ridge Mall, go to Music Land or whatever it was called, and that's why it's out of business. Unfortunately. So Shane, what's up, dog? So, yeah.

In Tribeca, Yellowstone by, by the maverick there at the on the where the, Knut, Knutson and Yellowstone meet right there. On that, left turn traffic light, there's a there's a power cable that's interfering with slide. View. Yeah. You're you're actually familiar with this particular spot, Lucille Craig.

Wow. I drove through there about 3 weeks ago, and I noticed this. Alright. So there's a a cable blocking And if you're sitting there just right, it's right in them. For me, it was right in the middle light, the orange or yellow.

For me, it was like I I'm in a truck. I'm in a Silverado, so I sit up higher. So it's me, it's like it's covering the the red light. Okay. So, yeah, I guess, is this something that needs to be reported to ITD or Chubby?

Well, I think it would be the power company needs to raise their power line just a little bit. Yeah. Okay. That's a great point. I did notice that.

I'll bring that up to the city of Chubby to see see if they can get somebody out there to lift that. Yeah. It just depends it just depends on what you're driving, where where it's your Vision. Your mind of sight. Yeah.

Alright. Well, thanks for pointing that out, Shane. We'll make sure to escalate the issue to the proper people. Get it dealt with. There was so much construction.

I called that an orange light. You did call it an orange light. I didn't even it didn't even it didn't even phase in an orange light. It is yellow. Right?

Yellow light. Yeah. But there's so much construction down by the river. Well, there there's so much going on out there. You know?

It's hard to keep track of all these different colors and things. I'm living down there in my van and man, it's noisy. Well, thanks, Shane. You have a good one, man. Yep, Peter.

Bye. Okay. We told Shane to make it fast, and he didn't really, but that's okay. This caller, the final one is going to make it fast. Kay Barry, you're live on the show.

Who's this? This is Colby. Colby, what's your question? You guys are asking random questions, so I thought I'd ask Lieutenant Crane. How many miles do you guys put on a month average?

That's a great question. And, typically, it's around 2,000. 2000? Yeah. 20,025100.

So I drive for work, and I do, like, 2,000 a month too. And I just was curious. Do you guys recognize certain people or outfits that are up and down highway 20 all the time where We just were talking about this in the office. Yeah. You learn who's who and you can you're sitting there and you're like, oh, that's so and so.

I stopped them before. They're headed to work. They gotta be there at this time. You know? Yeah.

You learn those these these things. But, you know, we're getting heavier traffic flow, and that's a little harder. But back in the day, you you used to know who was going where and what time they had to be there. Yeah. Hey.

Good good question, man. So Yeah. Thanks, guys. Hey. Have a great day.
