Traffic School - Planning A Charity Car Wash Death Stunt - 05/08/2026
Speaker 1: Welcome to the studio, Lieutenant Crane of the Idaho State Police was at. Was that my theme song? That was your theme song. I know you love Sublime. Welcome to my life. So I had to get you pumped for traffic school.
Speaker 2: My wife is so amazing. You've met her, right? Yes. She's great. She got me. Remember back in the day, they had these little things. I don't know what they were called that they put your exercise music on. You couldn't rotate or anything, but it just played through it. They were just a little tiny.
Speaker 1: Are you talking about like an iPod?
Speaker 2: Yeah, probably an iPod. I don't know. A little MP3 player. Yeah, but she was so sweet. She's like, I'm going to put you some workout music on that. I'm like, man, that is awesome. Thank you. Yeah, it was the most classical, relaxing music you could ever have. I'm like, that's just not working.
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be, you know, some of your other favorites, the back street boys, Spice Girls, you know, anything with plural boys or girls. Oh, yeah. You like yourself a nice group act.
Speaker 2: I was like sludging the mud. I get hardly moved.
Speaker 1: So pretty much like me every morning on this show. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2: And at that time I was looking a little bit like you.
Speaker 1: So you were needing the exercise. Yeah, that's what you're saying. I did need some exercise. Well, everybody, you know what time it is, right? About time for traffic school powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Going to be taking your calls at 208-535-1015. And hopefully we'll get a bunch of callers today. It's a nice day, you know, heading into a beautiful weekend. It's a good day to call.
Speaker 2: It would be a great day to call. And what you could do is voice your opinion, whether or not you would like to see Victor and I follow through on a challenge I made with him last week. I think I made some progress in that.
Speaker 1: Let's see, what was that challenge last week?
Speaker 2: Can you fulfill none of them? You're the best guy I know. It's like, yeah, yeah, let's do it. And then you just, you know, we hang up the phones, you just sit there.
Speaker 1: In one ear, out the other. I can't imagine you at the house when you're like, you're significant others like, take out the trash. Oh, yeah, I'll do it. There we go. Move.
That does happen quite often. Oh, dang it. I forgot to change over the laundry. Again, we got to wash that load for the third time for the week. That's OK. You know, you got to enjoy yourself, right? Is that enjoyable? Just to sit there and watch TV and just put off tasks.
Speaker 2: What do you mean, a hundred and some odd channels and nothing on?
Speaker 1: I love them all. I love every single one. OK, I'm really racking my brain here. What was our challenge from last week?
Speaker 2: I challenge you, we should come up with some kind of nonprofit that we could do some donations and go through the car wash in the back of the bed of the pickup.
Speaker 1: And I even talked to you about this a couple of days ago.
Speaker 2: I just called you yesterday. You called me from a car wash. Yesterday.
Speaker 1: Was it yesterday? Yes.
Speaker 2: Hey, you know, I think I can make this happen. And we'll keep it a secret what car wash.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all in. OK, well, we got to get peaches who's headed out the door right now to his live broadcast. And Pocky is going to be at footwear outfitters from 10 to noon. So you all should make sure to tune into that. But I'll get him to talk to sales if this thing figured out, you know, because if they said because you said they had put people through the car wash before it's been done.
So, you know, it's not like you're going to die. I'm not going to for sure. Me maybe. So we'll stay tuned on that one, everybody.
But that would be pretty fun. And look at that. We've already got a collar on hold. So I'll turn this music off and talk to him. Hey, Bear, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates, injury attorneys. Who's this? Amanda. Amanda, what's up?
Speaker 3: So I have a question about front license plates. I just bought a new Dodge Durango and it doesn't have a look at you.
Speaker 1: Where's my button? Good for you.
Speaker 2: Hey, everybody.
Speaker 4: And this economy, I got.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I had to. I got hit by a 17 year old girl at these ridiculous roundabouts. Yeah, long story short. So I had to buy a new one, but I don't have a spot for my front license plate. What do I do?
Speaker 2: So real quick, is there a mount on there at all? No. Is there any pre-drilled holes where you can see little dimples for a mount?
Speaker 3: I haven't investigated it that far.
Speaker 2: If there is not, you are not legally required in Idaho to have a front plate anymore.
Speaker 3: OK. Yeah, I think you're fine. If you don't have a bracket on there, you're probably good. Oh, you're going to get pulled over for the other bad habit you got, but they're not going to be too concerned about your license plate.
Speaker 3: We won't talk about those. We won't talk about those.
Speaker 6: It's got to hit me in it. What do you expect? Drive it, Amanda. That rat.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can do it and have a lot of fun till you get caught. So enjoy that new vehicle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we only go until you get caught.
Speaker 2: That's right. Yes.
Speaker 3: All right. Thanks, guys.
Speaker 1: Hey, thank you. Have a good one. Hey, so I got a new car. Just bragging right out of the gate. Oh, and then this car hangs up on me. How dare you? K-Bear, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 4: This is Jay.
Speaker 2: Hold on to a minute, Jay. Let me bang my head on the wall.
Speaker 4: Well, we do it. Don't worry.
Speaker 1: So what's up, Jay? What's on your mind?
Speaker 5: I don't like how your show starts out with the Saturday stuff. Is what people pull over?
Speaker 1: They should pull over if they hear sirens.
Speaker 2: Hey, Jay, I got a question for you. If you and Victor really ran out the back door like it's indicating, how far do you think you could go and who would go further? You or Victor?
Speaker 1: I can outrun Jay. Come on.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm pretty durable.
Speaker 7: Durable. You would run off the back door like it's
Speaker 1: Jay, will you turn down your radio? You know how this works.
Speaker 2: You're a professional. Yeah. How many times you call this show?
Speaker 4: It wasn't going too bad. It wasn't like an echo. It didn't really echo.
Speaker 1: Well, that's good. That's good. Any other questions for the program? No.
Speaker 4: Get to work. All right. Well, get to work, Jay.
Speaker 5: Now I get to work at 10. So, huh?
Speaker 1: Oh, good for you, Jay. Oh, good for you.
Speaker 4: He gets to work at 10. Get to work at 10.
Speaker 2: Go get some more of that beauty sleep.
Speaker 4: I'm already beautiful.
Speaker 1: All right, Jay. Well, we'll talk to you later, man. OK, all right. Bye. Hey, Mayor, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 5: You know what time it is. Keep on rolling, baby.
Speaker 7: All right, another crazy one. What's up, Carl?
Speaker 5: Oh, dude, you got to keep me on the loop on this car wash thing, man. I'm all the way down for that.
Speaker 2: I got something else for you, Carl. This pinto of yours, did you hear Amanda call first caller of the day? She's got herself a hymny.
Speaker 5: Oh, oh, see? Oh, that hurts.
Speaker 7: OK, now I'm a little green. Got to go to jelly school. Oh, man. Oh, hey, Sergeant Crane, by the way, you guys might want to bump up your patrols at the night of fall.
Oh, thanks for the notice. Crazy Carl, want some tickets to the Iron Maiden show. And I couldn't be more stoked.
I've never even won so much of a scratch off ticket in my life. Oh, dude, Maiden's one of my favorites, man. I mean, drove 14 hours up to North Dakota, just all Maiden. The whole way up there, man.
Speaker 4: Just rockin'.
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. That makes sense. While I'm going now, they said they got some rowdy guy. They needed private security to stand by. No.
Speaker 5: Oh, man. So my question this week, so my other daughter just turned 18. Now I have two kids that I need to teach to learn how to drive.
Speaker 2: I wonder if he's got more than that. He just don't know it. Yeah, no.
Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
Speaker 5: Oh, we don't want to go into that. You want the whole hundreds with the top 10.
Speaker 2: This is the busiest day of your life, the first day of school.
Speaker 7: Trying to get them all there. Oh, man. Parent-teacher conference.
Speaker 5: It's kind of like the family guy, family guy, quagmire thing, you know. Special Carl Drunner on.
Speaker 2: How can you have 13 kids all the age of six?
Speaker 5: It was a busy Wednesday.
Speaker 7: Oh, man. So can I take these kids up into the hills? Oh, it's crazy. You better get a song.
Speaker 2: Hey, you can do anything you want as a good parent. Just make sure certain things, you know, if they got stopped, there's probably going to be a conversation that they should be driving until they have their driver's license. Now, Idaho just passed the law that it's the parent's responsibility to teach our kids how to drive. So with that being said, you go to the school, go on the internet, you get the permits and the passes and all that stuff and good luck.
Speaker 1: This is not good. This is not a good new law. I know because there's so many parents like you that are going to sit on the couch and say, I'm not going through the day. Yeah. Or, you know, I've read people's knowledge of the law on like the life in Idaho Falls group. There's a lot of people out there that don't know what they're talking about and probably shouldn't be driving.
Speaker 7: And they're going to be teaching their children how to drive and the rules of the road. It's going to be a nightmare.
Speaker 2: How many things in life are like that though, where the instructor has no business teaching what they're instructing? Plenty.
Speaker 1: I did go through school.
Speaker 5: Everything they've learned for me is what not to do. So, I mean, they know, you know, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Victor got a sixth grade education in 12 years. And rats. And rats.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think if people are regular traffic school listeners, they're probably going to be okay. Yeah, those three people. Yes.
Speaker 7: It's all the other idiots I see online that I'm like, they shouldn't be teaching anyone anything. All right, let alone rules of the road. Okay.
Speaker 5: I don't know. I was just thinking dirt road. There's nobody around. They can't hit anything. I mean, you hit a sagebrush and no big deal. You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's nothing better than narrow roads and steep side hills. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Go to income. Mountain. Go to income. There's good tow trucks in case you're in a problem.
Speaker 1: Don't let them drive in the hills near income. You don't want to deal with the tow situations.
Speaker 4: Trust me.
Speaker 5: We don't. And shout out to cave air for those tickets, man. I am super stoked for the show tonight. And well, you enjoy Carl. I hope it's awesome. All right. Well, you guys have a good weekend, man. We'll talk to you soon. See you, man. All right. Later.
Speaker 1: Hey, bear. You are live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this? My name is Tony. Tony. What's up, dude?
Speaker 8: Hey, I got a question is hold on.
Speaker 2: Hold on, Tony. Hold on. You sound way too together and smart to be calling this program.
Speaker 8: Well, I, well, I tried to.
Speaker 2: Have you heard those last callers?
Speaker 7: No. I didn't know you were going to have the program on today. So I plugged in. I'm a truck driver. I'm over here in Iowa. And I thought, I got to see if he's doing the traffic school. And here you are.
Speaker 2: Awesome. Man, you're the best. You're the best.
Speaker 8: I had a question. I've been waiting for the whole week to ask you. And it's been on my mind. So I just thought, I got to ask this. Let's do it.
Well, okay. Is it illegal to have a small little dog? It likes to come with me when I come home and he jumped on my lap as I'm driving down the road, just as one of Jefferson County's officers passed me the opposite direction. He then did a U turn and I'm watching him in my rear view.
He didn't turn on his lights or anything, but he followed me for quite a while until I pulled off on my home. And it had me wondering, is it against policy to have a dog sit on your lap as you're driving?
Speaker 2: There's no law that says the dog on your lap is illegal. What would happen is if the dog was causing you to drive in such a manner that was unsafe, then it would be a stop on that PC and the citation would be inattentive driving. Okay. Yep.
Speaker 1: So he was probably just watching to see if the guy was swerving. Or was distracted. Yep, from the dog.
Speaker 8: Right. See if I was distracted. Okay. And that was a St. Bernard? No.
Speaker 7: There you go.
Speaker 2: It was a great game. It was a great game.
Speaker 8: Just a little guy.
Speaker 2: It worked. I just had that. If you need to borrow money to get home because if your prices call us, we'll help you out.
Speaker 8: They're outrageous over here.
Speaker 2: What is it again for diesel there in Iowa?
Speaker 8: It's over $6. Oh, geez. I'm looking at the one right now that says $429 for, well that's just unleaded. Hey, that's cheaper than here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, $429 for unleaded, but I'll take it.
Speaker 1: Sold. Now for $429. I've been looking at that gaslight on my truck for two days and I'm like, I don't even want to go, I do not want to see that $100 bill pop up.
Speaker 2: I told my wife yesterday I went and fueled my pickup was on low. I put $100 in, the pump shuts off and I didn't even have three quarters of a tank of fuel.
Speaker 1: I've got to love it. Winning.
Speaker 8: I didn't have one more question. I don't know if you'll get asked. Absolutely. I've been watching some cop shows and usually. Lieutenant Crane's favorite. They've been signing people with this called OVI. I'm a DWI or DUI, but OVI. What is that acronym for?
Speaker 2: Operating Vehicle Under the Influence. Operating Vehicle Under the Influence.
Speaker 1: So it'd be the same thing, but just different states have a different name for the charge. Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 2: I would guess that's what it is. That's a wild guess.
Speaker 8: Yeah, a lot of the people were either under the influence of marijuana or something like that.
Speaker 2: Oh no, that's, everybody runs out legal. It don't affect anything.
Speaker 1: People drive under the influence. Right. What?
Speaker 7: At least when they're under the influence of marijuana, they're fun.
Speaker 1: They don't tend to get aggressive with you. They're just like happy. Take me in. Sure, man. I need a nap. It's all hugs.
Speaker 8: But I do have the show, so thank you guys for having me on there. Absolutely.
Speaker 2: Hey, you, thanks for tuning in. All right, take care. You know, we talk about happy people going under a situation like that. I rested one guy one night for DUI and I said, hey, you know, you had a, he had to drink tonight and he goes, you think I act like this all the time? Of course I have.
Speaker 7: Well, you know, I guess if at least they're cooperative,
Speaker 2: you know, he was like hanging out with my buddy for the night. I was like, hey, can we take you to the jail later? You just sit here and keep me laughing.
Speaker 1: Let's go get some burgers, man. Let's keep talking. Hey, bear, you were live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this? Donna. Donna, what's up?
Speaker 9: Well, okay, I have a question. I used to work close to the temple in Idaho Falls and on Riverside Drive. Are you going to get to heaven soon?
Speaker 6: No, I'm not. I'm not going to work close.
Speaker 1: I drove by there once.
Speaker 9: Oh, it scares me some days to drive that way. But that where you're getting on the 20, there's, if you're going up to get on the 20 and you want to take a left, right? You have people coming off the freeway wanting to take a left. Those people that are coming off the freeway are pulling into that median because the traffic's not coming on one side and you're trying to turn left and they pull in front of you.
Speaker 2: Is that legal? It's small, man. That's an Idaho Falls City problem.
Speaker 1: At least I think we can't answer that one.
Speaker 2: No, they can't pull in front of you. You have the right of way.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it happens all the time. It makes me so angry.
Speaker 6: I just keep driving through there because I'm so mad.
Speaker 9: I just pull up in front of them and look at them like you are in the wrong, but I wanted to make sure that was correct.
Speaker 2: Yes, Don, I would hate to have that look from you.
Speaker 6: You probably would with me. That's my tip.
Speaker 1: Well, I know we have Idaho Falls police officers that listen to the program, so maybe they want to go patrol that area a little bit.
Speaker 2: What they do is they sneak out there hoping that they can pull out and then pull out. There is room for your car there, but really by law, once they make that move, they're supposed to move completely through and into the lane of travel, not stopping the middle. Same with the left turn lane designated.
You would have the right of way, but is it really worth being without your car for three months, why is it the body shopper? Just maybe touch a break and then give them the Donna look.
Speaker 9: I do, but yeah, I kind of just go with the flow if I can, but sometimes it's irritating. You've got like three or four cars behind you and they're still pouring out in the median.
Speaker 1: Deep breath. A nice deep breath.
Speaker 9: Well, I don't drive that way anymore, so I'm grateful for that, but I've always had that question.
Speaker 2: You need to have a sign on the side of your car that says you're wrong. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Don't mess with Donna.
Speaker 9: You know what? My kids have told me I can't do things like that. I need to kind of grow up and control myself.
Speaker 1: My mom's so embarrassing. My kids are adults and still tell me the same thing all the time. It's fine.
Speaker 9: I have two adults too.
Speaker 1: You know, you're going to grow up dad. Geez.
Speaker 9: Yeah, they tell me all the time. Are you going to grow up and behave? No, that's not fun.
Speaker 1: Well, good to hear from you, Donna, and hope you have an awesome weekend, too.
Speaker 9: All right, you guys as well. Have a great one.
Speaker 2: Yep. You can take that 20-minute loop around the river.
Speaker 1: So, just, you know, forget the roundabouts. Just check out that beautiful river. I'm going to Sunnyside. It was funny that Carl said, you know, you guys need to get more officers out. It seems like you guys have a lot of officers out right now.
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, we're loaded. They're all over the place. Yeah. Now, you've heard, right, that we were down six troopers in our area. Yes. So, we hired six. We lost two. Then two more retired. So, do the math. How many are we ahead now? Now you need four more. Now, so we're still that. You only picked up two, right?
Yes. Now we're going to be down those two. So, we're going to be starting over again. So hopefully next January, we're going to be doing a hiring process. And we're going to have a little better money for raises and entry. So, we're going to try to get that, but we're doing a little better right now. We're two up. We've got two more than we used to, but that's not going to, it's not going to look like we're overwhelming the place.
Speaker 1: Sure seems like I see you guys everywhere. I'm like, leave me alone. I don't have time for this. Don't pull me over. Yeah, when we were coming back from Vegas, once we hit East Idaho, I'm like, why are there so many state police everywhere? They're good at what they do. Didn't catch me. All right, let's go.
Speaker 2: What does the guy bring back from Las Vegas? He shouldn't have.
Speaker 1: Well, it's what you're not bringing back. And that was money.
Speaker 2: Stupid mosquito. If you had the drug dog hit the money that you were handling in at Las Vegas, how, what percentage do you think you'd hit that it was? Huh.
Speaker 1: I want, yeah, if you're getting cash in Vegas, it's probably, who knows what on it. Like cash is dirty. You definitely got to wash your hands.
Speaker 2: Most dirty things we can touch and handle.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. I mean, when I used to, well, here we got, is there, is there a way to do that? There's someone on the phone. Yes. Hi, caller. What's up?
Speaker 6: Oh, it's Ravonda.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's Ravonda calling. What's up, Ravonda?
Speaker 2: You want to talk about anything illegal in Vegas?
Speaker 6: No, what I was going to say is, you know, I'm working at the bar tonight. So, it's like you're coming to hang out with me.
Speaker 1: All right. Crazy Jay.
Speaker 6: You got an hour to work. Lieutenant Crane, we can drink and drive together.
Speaker 2: How about we drink and you drive? I'll just tell them, I told her not to.
Speaker 6: We could both switch.
Speaker 2: That's what you do when you got one guy on the side that's sober and the drunk driver gets stopped you hurry and do the old seat swap.
Speaker 6: Oh, you won't be sober if you're hanging out with me. Okay, bye.
Speaker 1: Okay, see you, Ravonda. That's called pure pressure. Kay, Bear, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 4: Oh, where do I go to become a state trooper?
Speaker 2: Oh, I'll tell you where you go, Jay.
Speaker 1: I hear in Montana or let's see,
Speaker 2: Washington, that's where they got the real good wages for state police. Yeah, real good wages don't have to do much because there's not many laws enforced.
Speaker 1: You might get stuck in a dump like Spokane.
Speaker 7: Jay, hold on a minute, Jay, this is South Dakota. Yeah, they'd like you to come there.
Speaker 1: All right, Jay, hit the road, buddy.
Speaker 4: Oh, I see you doing that.
Speaker 1: Well, thanks, Jay. Good to hear from you again. You sold me on that. See you, man. Bye. Kay, Bear, you're live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this? E. E. Free Carl Gale, man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're starting the show over. All right, yeah.
Speaker 1: It's 845. Let's go. We're just circling around here, man.
Speaker 2: Come around. Hey, hold on a minute. Hold on a minute. Amanda, please call.
Speaker 7: We got to get this in the right order. Yes.
Speaker 5: So speaking of illegal things, does Idaho have a law that you can get a DUI under the influence of Mary Jane?
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it's under the influence of anything that disrupts the way you operate a motor vehicle safely.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that could be prescription medications.
Speaker 2: Gas like you like to do cars.
Speaker 7: Oh, that racing fuel is so much better, though.
Speaker 2: Racing fuel, Papst, blue ribbon, glue, paint.
Speaker 1: Yes, all of the above, Carl.
Speaker 5: So, you know, you get arrested for DUI driving well under the influence of Mary Jane. You're not going five over. You're going 20 under.
Speaker 2: That's the problem. Everybody else is doing 20 over. That's a 40 mile an hour difference.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Right on.
Speaker 2: And that's why you're not good at doing the math.
Speaker 7: All right, well, I hope the next car gets in, man. We'll see how this rotates out.
Speaker 1: Good to hear from you again, Carl.
Speaker 2: Hey, Carl, real quick. When Amanda calls, where's the best place to go drag race these cars without the cops knowing?
Speaker 5: Oh, Furniture Road.
Speaker 2: Furniture Road, that's where you do it. You do it on Furniture Road. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Okay. That's what I'm going to tell you guys, and then
Speaker 4: I'm going to go on the other side.
Speaker 2: Because my next question is what day and what time? Right, right. And who are your friends?
Speaker 7: Very bad influences is what they are.
Speaker 7: Right on. Well, you guys have a good weekend, man. We'll see you up there tonight.
Speaker 1: Right on. See you, Carl. Right on. All right, Larry. Kay Bear, you live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 6: You're a Dino.
Speaker 2: It's a bad dream. We're just recycling.
Speaker 1: Same three colors all day.
Speaker 6: I just want to tell Carl that we need to go on a road trip.
Speaker 1: Now, wait a minute. I thought you were my gal, Ravonda. You're going to run off with crazy Carl. He's got a pin on.
Speaker 6: This is an outrage. We're so witty, crazy together.
Speaker 2: He's got a pin. He's got a pin on and gas in the tank.
Speaker 1: That's true. I got no gas in the tank.
Speaker 6: I got a gas light on. There we go. We could go be crazy and go to Vegas.
Speaker 1: Fine, you get, Ravonda. You just get. How good.
Speaker 2: How much fun would it be, Ravonda, to be with somebody like Carl or somebody like Victor that don't want to get off the couch?
Speaker 1: Yeah, she hung up. She's gone. She's already prepared to hit the road.
Speaker 2: Hey, Carl, get a better job. Here comes some more alimony. All right, 208-535-1015.
Speaker 1: The number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates. Peaches was really wanting me to ask you all week.
Speaker 2: Real quick, I got to ask one question. When you start dividing alimony out multiples, at what point do you think the judge is like, sir, you have got to slow down? These numbers aren't working.
Speaker 1: That's funny because I saw some guy post something online where he was complaining about his child's porn. And, you know, he had a picture of the bill. He's like, how am I supposed to live off this much money? But there was like five different lines for child's porn payments. From different bonds. Looks like you kind of got yourself in that one, buddy. Kay Berry, live on traffic school, powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 10: This is Steve-O, the mud-bang guy again. Steve-O, what's up, dude? I just had a hypothetical question. A friend or friend. Not that I've ever done it or not, but if you're getting pulled over by a police officer, is it true that you're able to legally just keep going until you feel safe to pull over? Like if, say, you're on an abandoned road, then you can just drive to, like, the nearest gas station to pull over.
Speaker 2: Um, how new are your tires?
Speaker 10: Um, they're kind of new, six months ish.
Speaker 2: Okay, how would you like holes poked in all of them?
Speaker 10: Right? Okay, so you can't.
Speaker 2: So, no, no. There's nothing saying you can't. Now, it depends on how you do it, right? If the lights come on, you slow down, turn your hazard lights on, and you drive two or three blocks and pull into a gas station, you're probably fine. If the lights come on, you maintain the same speed, have no action in your car, and you drive miles, we're gonna have a problem.
Speaker 10: Okay, are you able to, like, call into, like, the dispatch and let them know that you're doing, if you call, like, the non-emergency number, just, like, let them know, hey, I don't feel safer.
Speaker 2: You can call STAR-ISP, STAR-477, and say, hey, I'm, I got a police officer behind me, just let them know I'm going up to this, uh, place, and I'll stop. And not only that, but we are gonna be in such a situation when you say it was safe. When we look at the roadway, if there's not a place to safely pull over for you and the officer, we're gonna wait till there's a pullout or something like that to light, light the car, the car up. But the problem is, a lot of times, the people miss that option too, because they drive right by where we're like, hey, there's a big open spot, you know? So then they might come up and say, hey, move forward and move off the road up here, so we're both safe. And that would be a good time for you to pull over too and just say, hey, officer, I don't feel safe. Can we move forward up to this convenience store or wherever?
Speaker 10: Okay, okay. All right, I was just curious, is that was, like, a thing that you'd get, like, trying to, what's it called, a lute and officer or whatnot, if you did do that, but... You have
Speaker 2: to have the intent to try to elude. Now, if you slow down, turn your hazards on, you're not trying to elude us, right? But if that continues for miles and miles, I'll share you a great example. If you read Eastern Idaho News last weekend, we had that exact thing. We had a situation where we tried to stop a vehicle. He actually went down below the speed limit, but continued and finally pulled over. But if he would have kept driving like that, we'd have spiked him.
Okay. Even though he was under the speed limit, because he knew we were back there, there was no harm for him to pull over. And there was something going on, which we found out was to be correct. He had two outstanding warrants, and then once we made the arrest for that, we also found that he had drug paraphernalia and marijuana on him and was, yeah, two outstanding warrants. So he was making the debate whether he had a chance to get away or not.
Speaker 10: He must have been trying to live for crazy car roll, huh?
Speaker 7: Ravonda! All right.
Speaker 10: Well, you fellas have a good day. Thank you for answering my question. Thank you, too, man.
Speaker 2: He was hollering Ravonda like Rocky was. Hey, Drina! That's right.
Speaker 1: So, Peech has wanted me to ask you.
Speaker 2: Oh, boy, back to him.
Speaker 1: Would it be against the law to tell someone to jump into a deadly body of water? Knowing it's deadly, but they don't. You're like, hey, let's go swimming in the river. This is a good spot. Jump in.
Speaker 2: Yeah. That would be a crime. Well, there are some codes that you could be charged with in voluntary manslaughter. Okay. Yep, if you've done something that or encouraged or encouraged somebody to do something that took their life. Okay.
Speaker 1: What if it was like, there was an article making the rounds about bodies of water in the Northwest where they found brain-eating amoebas. What if you told someone to go for a swim in one of those?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you knew and they didn't. Yeah. The investigation went back up and said, did you have any intent on this being the outcome?
Speaker 1: Okay. What if you were like, I just thought it would be funny.
Speaker 2: Or you knew that could be the outcome, right? You still pushed for that. And here's a good example. When we deal with fentanyl, if we can find the supplier, somebody that dies of an overdose on fentanyl, we're charging them.
Speaker 1: Absolutely.
Speaker 2: What would be the difference if you know that the body of water could kill somebody and the percentage may be 10%, but you know
Speaker 1: there's a chance that you talk them into doing it just to see what the outcome would be. Okay.
Speaker 2: That's what we kind of figure. Yeah. So it'd take an investigation, but possible charges could happen. All right.
Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones here. Kay Bear, you were live on traffic school powered by the advocates' injury attorneys. Who's this?
Speaker 5: A quick question about brain eating in nevus. Can you get brain eating in nevus if you don't have a brain? That's what you're saying.
Speaker 2: Hey, don't you have your bags packed and waiting at the bus stop? Who was that? Who? Because I know you and Ravond and either one of you can afford the gas so you're probably riding the bus down. Riding the bus to North Dakota.
Speaker 1: North Dakota to Vegas. Oh yeah, that's right. It was Vegas.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're aware it's funner in Vegas than North Dakota.
Speaker 1: Really? Oh yeah. I thought North Dakota was just the funnest place on earth packed with excitement.
Speaker 2: I suspect it's all the same if you just sat in the hotel on the sofa. Oh, it's great.
Speaker 1: Sitting on the sofa.
Speaker 2: It's fantastic. Because there's nothing nasty on those. No.
Speaker 1: Forget brain eating in nevus.
Speaker 7: That place is so flat you can watch your dog run away for two weeks straight. Oh, man, that's funny. I don't go swimming in any body of water.
Speaker 2: I mean, I saw a job because we don't want to see you in a swimming suit.
Speaker 6: Oh, you don't want to see that. Of course, I don't.
Speaker 2: Carl, take the sweater off.
Speaker 7: Yes.
Speaker 5: I'm like that one fat guy at the pool. You know, I got the oversized sweater and all that. Yep.
Speaker 7: Right. Well, you guys stay out of the water, man.
Speaker 1: How do we do? Absolutely. I'm going anywhere near brain eating amoebas. Kay, Bear, you're live on Traffic School powered by the Advocates. Who's this? This is Kastady. And what's going on today?
Speaker 3: I just had a question. So I'm a mom and if
Speaker 1: I I want to present for Mother's Day.
Speaker 6: Oh, I'm like that's like For you.
Speaker 2: Have you ever gave childbirth victory? We're not going to get into that.
Speaker 3: So I was wondering if I had to like run in and leave my kids for they like talks five hours or five minutes or something if I had to go return something. What's like the law about that?
Speaker 2: Are they three months older or less?
Speaker 3: No. Okay, they're 17. They're paying their boys. How about that?
Speaker 6: Oh, my Lanta.
Speaker 2: My daughter has two little boys or the meanest little guys I've ever met in my life. Get it from the grandpa. My Lanta. How old are your kids?
Speaker 3: I have a three year old and a one year old.
Speaker 2: Okay, you got them locked down in car seats then. Yes. And the car's running. Yes. So now the question you've got to ask yourself is there are some people out there that would be concerned if they did call the cops.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you call the cops. Because boy, it's a battle, right? To get those two little turkeys into the store and back. Right, exactly. If I'm going to be in there for five minutes, it takes me longer to get them out of the car.
Speaker 2: Right. Right. So what you need to think about is this. Are they, would they really be in harm's way? What's the situation outside those things? But the biggest thing is if you had 12 of your peers on a jury, are they going to think it was reasonable or non-reasonable? Uh-huh. And because they'd have to prove it beyond the reasonable doubt that they were in harm.
Speaker 1: Okay. I'd say it sounds iffy. Yeah. Because people like to get worked up nowadays.
Speaker 3: Right. And that's what I have always. Yeah. You only need one, like Karen.
Speaker 2: Now, can I be honest with you? I take my grandsons all the time. They're two and four. And I'll tell them, just did it last night, hey, sit in the car, I'm going to be right back. And I parked right by the door of the convenience store, ran in, grabbed the stuff I needed to come back out. Probably gone three, four minutes, right? So yeah, I've done it.
Speaker 1: Well, it's really dangerous where you live. Yeah. I know, right?
Speaker 6: That's why I live there, because I'm soft.
Speaker 1: Right. Scarecrow will get you if you get out of that car.
Speaker 6: Yeah, right. Seriously. I know, I've always been one, like, I didn't know if people could like, I heard stuff, obviously, like, Tick-Tock and stuff, but I didn't know if, like, once the cop gets there, if they're in for more than 10 minutes.
Speaker 2: I don't think there's necessarily a time frame. What's the totality of the circumstances?
Speaker 3: Okay, okay. Yeah, like, my car plays shows. Oh, of course it does. My car plays shows. Good for you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll be back for two minutes. I'm going to put on a show.
Speaker 2: You think Amanda's cool, she's got a Dodge Dringle, I got a car video.
Speaker 3: Exactly. Now, I think it's a common sense, right? And you're absolutely right. Sometimes it takes longer to unbuckle them, and then the hard parts can buckle them back down. They don't want to be in those car seats. No, no.
Speaker 3: Exactly, they got to taste the freedom for that two minutes.
Speaker 1: Arch their back. They're going to be grabbing stuff in the store. I went candy.
Speaker 2: It's going to take longer when the cops show up for the shoplifting.
Speaker 3: Exactly. I love this though. My wife used to call me when she was trying to put our boys in car seats and she'd be like, your boys.
Speaker 6: They're not hers anymore. I used to call them. I'm like, wait a minute, when they were doing stuff for the widow next door, they were your boys.
Speaker 3: Well, when they're perfect angels, they're always home.
Speaker 1: Well, good question. Appreciate the call today and hope you have a great weekend. All right, thank you, you too. See ya. Right. Show them pretty good. Non-stop calls. From three people. Thank you to Ravonda Crazy J and Crazy Carl. From all those others. Anything else for the community as we roll into the weekend?
Speaker 2: Hey, we're getting close to Memorial Day weekend and the 100 most deadliest days. We're not off to a good start. Just know the weather's good. Pay attention to what you're doing. Focus on your driving. And let's get started. Let's have a successful summer.
Speaker 1: That sounds great to me. And everybody tune in next Friday for another edition of Traffic School, powered by the advocates. Ugh, can't talk. Need more coffee. All right, you have a good weekend, Lieutenant Crane. Bye-bye now. Good for you. I'll get right out. Traffic School is a production of River Bend Media Group.
