Oh, at least we don't have to go deal with uh a full day in the sun tomorrow.
Speaker 2: It was a little toasty last week. But it was a great show.
Speaker 1: That was uh the best fireworks show I've ever seen. It was pretty pretty fantastic. Good stuff. But it was uh a little hot outside. How those people just sit out there all day. Like there was people who got there before me and were there all day. Gotta have the best spot, I guess, but you know, when you've got sun sickness, heat stroke. Oh. Yeah, this weekend, everybody. Um leave me alone. Oh, it's the dentist.
Speaker 2: No, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Why is my phone lighting up? Reminder, you have an appointment coming up. Uh anyway, uh, people be careful this weekend. It's gonna be hot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, drink a lot of fluids, and I don't mean beverages, just water.
Speaker 1: Just water. More. All right. We'll be back in like two minutes for Traffic School Powered by the Advocates. You better call us, people. All right. Where are you people at? 2085-1015, the number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates. Best way to start your weekend.
Speaker 2: Crazy Carl's uh trying to work off a busy last weekend.
Speaker 1: I was trying to think how do I want to word this?
Speaker 2: Maybe too many said.
Speaker 1: I I think everybody's been working off last weekend. Oh there was a low enthusiasm for work around here this week, I noticed.
Speaker 2: Oh, you guys done a great job, but we appreciate everything you guys have done for years and years to bring great entertainment and a great opportunity to our community for years now.
Speaker 1: Well, maybe next year for the first time in like 18 years, I won't have to work on the 4th of July.
Speaker 2: What I like about that though, that's the only day you really do work.
Speaker 1: True. And so I need that day back. Yeah. All right, everybody, 208-535-1015 is that number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates. Um, let's see, online Sarah posted, can we please discuss the concept of crosswalks and responsibility versus right of way?
I almost hit a running pedestrian this week who decided to make a right turn into the street right in front of me. I feel we both are responsible for paying attention.
Speaker 2: I love that she's accepting responsibility, right? Because we do have responsibility to drive attentively and defensively. Yes. Now, when you're a pedestrian, you can't just bolt out into the street, right?
Speaker 1: Well, you can. Yeah. You shouldn't. Yeah, sometimes don't work out real good. Uh so just because there's a crosswalk there doesn't mean you can be running full speed
Speaker 2: or running at all or on a bicycle or whatever and jet out into the crosswalk, right? Yeah. You have some responsibility to clear it. But once it's reasonable and you start out in that crosswalk, you got the right of way as a pedestrian. But you can't just bolt out in front of a car that's doing 35 with no chance to stop.
Speaker 1: So that's when the investigation comes into play.
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah. And uh yeah, we look at that and say, okay, did they were they reasonable in crossing? And did the driver have reasonable notice to get stopped prior to the crosswalk, or did they just come out in front of them?
Speaker 1: All right. So yes, Sarah, very well put. It should be the responsibility of uh both the driver and the pedestrian. Note to all of you college students in Pocatello who just walk out onto Fifth Street between cars. Yeah, without paying any attention whatsoever.
Speaker 2: And and this is the other thing, right? Don't come out uh, and it's just as bad walking as driving. Looking down at your cell phone, don't look up and just walk out in the crosswalk. Yeah, that's not good.
Speaker 1: That's not gonna work out real good, right?
Speaker 2: I do have a story about that, though. My oldest boy was going to school down to Logan, uh, Utah State. I get a phone call from his roommates, and they're like, hey, we think we probably ought to take your son to the hospital. I'm like, oh, what's going on? He's like, well, he was riding a skateboard to class and went right off the sidewalk into the cross or right off the sidewalk into the crosswalk, and lo and behold, a F-350 for pickup smacking, right? Bang. Well, he still continued class, sat through class, got home, wasn't doing well. They took him to the hospital, got notification, broke his back. Ooh. Yeah. Man. So that's one good reason to look and clear intersections.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna say broken back's not very fun. Just guessing. Yeah. K-Mear, you were live on traffic school, powered by the advocates. Who's this? Cleaned it. Clean it. Cletus. What's up, Cletus?
Speaker 3: You guys never gonna do your um roundabout instruction video. Oh thank you, Cletus.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we we probably should do that since people still seem concerned about roundabouts online.
Speaker 2: Bring it up nonstop and it goes on a deaf ear.
Speaker 1: I'm tired, Cletus.
Speaker 3: Isn't Cletus the worst name ever, Lieutenant Craig? Oh, what do you mean?
Speaker 2: Cleitus has got some he got some stuff going on. He realizes what I'm working with here.
Speaker 1: I don't think this listener's really named Cletus.
Speaker 3: Yep. The one Cleatus that actually lives.
Speaker 1: The one Cletus that actually lives. I'm sorry for insulting your name, Cletus.
Speaker 2: It would be the first time somebody called in and said, Hey, this is my name, and I'm calling for a friend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well one of these days we'll do a roundabout video. One of these days, it's not gonna be today. Too too sleepy, too lazy.
Speaker 3: That would require effort.
Speaker 2: He's already worked his one day this year.
Speaker 1: For real, though. I did my day of work last week. I'm done. Well, Cleatus, you have a wonderful toasty weekend. Yeah, you as well. Right on, man. Peace.
Speaker 2: Hey, speaking of that summer, it's hot and it's warm and stuff like that, and you've set a goal for yourself, and I'm gonna hold you accountable. How you doing? You on the wagon or off the wagon this week?
Speaker 1: Well, my goal is to get back on the wagon after work today. Okay. I'm good here someday. I was doing really good. And then you know, you go, oh, I could just go ahead and have a few.
Speaker 2: One. I'll just start with one.
Speaker 1: And then it's back to uh all right, I gotta get it together. So that's my goal for the weekend. Just lay low, hide at my house, not be bothered by anybody and just try to get my act together. All right, boy. So I'll I'll let you know next week how how well it works out.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'll ask just to keep you honest.
Speaker 1: It's the plan. It's the plan. Speaking of booze, um Peaches asked online is it illegal for your friend to be drunk in the back of a Waymo car, is that considered open container? What's a Waymo? Okay, we don't have them around here. They're um like self-driving taxis.
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
Speaker 1: So um if we had them here, okay. One, I would assume just being drunk with no can. No problem.
Speaker 2: I would assume just obnoxious at that point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yelling at a computer. But if you had an open container, an actual you know, can or bottle in the back of an automated taxi.
Speaker 2: By law, it would be illegal. Unfortunately, there's nobody that can drink it that's in the driver's seat, right? Yeah. And so that would be a good argument to hear in the courts is okay, the law's there so that the uh the driver can't just kind of pass it back and say, hey, that wasn't mine.
Speaker 1: All right, because yeah, I mean, anybody in a
Speaker 2: vehicle right now, open container, you get a citation.
Speaker 1: Unless you're like in the back of an RV. Yeah. Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, where it's really safe.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Lots of seat belts, uh, you know, two by two construction.
Speaker 2: Perfect place to be.
Speaker 2: Hey, can you imagine if people really knew how and then how safe they'd feel traveling at 80 miles an hour in that uh cracker jack box?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you ever seen one of those that's uh wrecked?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they fall, they blast apart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they look like a bombs hit them. So I don't think I'd want to be in one of those that gets in an accident. Uh K-Bear, you were live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this? Tyler. Tyler, what up, dude?
Speaker 3: Hey, I was just one curious about your two cents on a situation I was a part of a few years back. Uh to make a long story brief. I was I was with uh kind of came to a complete stop in front of my house. Parked on the side of the road. No stop sign there.
Speaker 2: I would just stop.
Speaker 3: I was I I was I was parked legally on on the road in front of my house. Yes, sir. Uh uh keep cars off, keys out of the ignition, I'm outside the vehicle and on my property, and only at that point an officer pulls up behind my car, hollers out the window to tell me to stop because I'm being pulled over.
Speaker 2: So what happened is you outrun him to the house.
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, full disclosure, I guess I I uh my house is on a one-way. I kind of meandered over the line, like made a right-hand turn on a one-way. I live on the left hand side of the road, so I just kind of meandered over the line, and I guess to him it looked like I was riding the line. That was his reason to pull me over. But at that point, like, did he get there too late? Could I have just walked in my house? No.
Speaker 2: Or did I have to actually I love that you asked this question because now I get to tell a war story. All right. I guess to kick back. But with that being said, no, if he's seen and observed stuff, and then you pull up, uh, just because you arrive at your home doesn't mean that's home plate and you're safe, right? So if he still has probable costs prior to that, he has a right to investigate and further his investigation, even though you've appeared in your home or at your home, parked and you've got out and you've stood on your property. And uh, I will share this with you.
Kind of the same thing. I was out one night, uh DUI driver, he drives right to his house, bells out, takes off running into the house. I take off running, I run in through the front door right with him. And uh when I tackle him, we go over top of the lazy boy chair, and why he's screaming, I look up and there and he was like 45, 50 at the time. And uh, as I look up, there's his like 70-year-old mother standing in her bathrobe in the kitchen. Yeah, so no, it uh just because you make a home that don't mean you're safe. Dang it.
Speaker 3: Okay, I was just wondering if it was like uh like did he have the authority to like pull me off my property and back over to the curb. Yep. Initiate a stop.
Speaker 2: Yep, he did at that point if he had problem cause prior to you arriving there. Uh all right.
Speaker 3: Well, thanks for clearing that up for me.
Speaker 2: That would be fun though, if you could just get home to a safe place and say, Nanny nanny.
Speaker 1: That'd be awesome.
Speaker 3: You'll never get me. I didn't get gyped. All right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just stand right on the uh the uh grass side of the the uh sidewalk and put your thumbs in your ears and move your hands back and forth.
Speaker 1: He's cell phone. Cell phone. your tongue out. Better luck next time. sucker.
Speaker 3: Uh well, appreciate you guys, thank you. Hey, thanks, man. You have a good one. Bye.
Speaker 1: 208-535-1015 is the number to call for traffic school powered by the advocates.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't that be kind of fun if the uh violator could say, hey, officer, I'm kind of good at something, whether that be like uh jumping jacks or uh vertical leap. If you can't out vertical leap me, I win, I go home.
Speaker 1: It would be fun if we could have some kind of a challenge to get out of tickets and buddy.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna challenge you.
Speaker 1: How about a game of basketball?
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've heard how good that's going for peaches. Uh we're we're working on it, working on it a little bit. I'm not scared of that.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be either 208-535-1015. It's traffic school, powered by the advocates call us up, people.
Speaker 2: I don't want Peaches to hear this, but I actually went back to the office, and the gentleman that I have kind of a prize package in my office. I said, hey, that game might happen still. And he's like, oh, good. And the secretary said, you played lately? And he was like, oh, I put 40 down the other night.
Speaker 1: Okay. You live on Traffic School, powered by the Advocates. Who's this?

Speaker 4: Oh, wow. I actually beat him to the punch today.
Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll hear from him.

Speaker 4: So I acquired a little trailer for the tractor. I still have the slow-moving triangle on the back of the tractor. Do I need to move the triangle to the trailer now? No.
Speaker 2: But you do have to have taillights on the trailer. Well, you're pulling here. You're pulling the trailer.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just a little teeny tiny trailer. It's like a little teeny John Deere style trailer. No, you would put that
Speaker 2: that stays on the rear of the tractor. Okay. All right, man.
Speaker 4: I got through just we pulled it two weeks ago and brought it into town and finally started on it. Somebody dumped it on our property in Lava four years ago, so it was freebie. Nice.
Speaker 1: There you go. Can't beat that price.
Speaker 4: And I uh I spent all of this week painting it to match the tractor, and it's my little my dog rides in the back of it.

Speaker 1: K-bear, you were live on traffic school powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 4: Oh, Steve O The Mud Vane guy.
Speaker 1: Steve O The Mud Bang Guy. What's up, dude?
Speaker 4: Oh, I just had a hypothetical scenario question that I would like to ask. Just silly kind of question, I guess.
Speaker 2: Um Victor was told by a school teachers there were no dumb questions, but he proved them wrong.
Speaker 4: Well, so be it. But uh So be it. I can't see you're driving down the road. You have that moment where you have the passenger grab the steering wheel. Happen to be driving by a cop. Is that illegal to do? And if so, who would get the ticket? The driver or the passenger bowl? And what would the ticket even be?
Speaker 2: Uh so that it'd have to be in a manner which it was unsafe. We wouldn't be able to stop just because we thought, oh, hey, the passengers got their hand on the wheel. And so there'd be have to be some kind of incident or situation that occurred that we found out that there was a hand on the wheel, and then what would happen is if that caused a crash or uh something of that nature, then it'd be inattened by the driver because the driver's uh ultimately responsible for the movement of that vehicle.
Speaker 4: Okay. Okay, yeah, I was just wondering because maybe my result and a swerve, and then they're like, hey, you cross the line or something like that.
Speaker 2: But uh wouldn't that be something to if you had that happen and you cited the passenger who had just one hand on the wheel at the time if they'd been consuming alcohol site then for DUI.
Speaker 1: I guess it could have seen how that goes in for it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. That's why we got smart judges. Figure that kind of stuff out. Right. Well, right.
Speaker 4: I was curious. I appreciate you guys' time and you guys all have a good day. You as well, man. Good to hear from you. Yeah, go Mud Vane.
Speaker 1: Go, Mud Burn. K mayor, you're live on traffic school, powered by the advocates. Who's this? I don't feel 30. Let's go by that.

Speaker 1: Was it as of as of the first that now parents have to uh teach the kids to drive?
Speaker 2: Because the parents have been doing such a great job with their children up to this point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Yeah, and based on some of the information I see on social media with people's knowledge of the laws of the road. Uh yeah, I I think you know, driver's head. It wasn't a bad thing.

Speaker 2: Well, my son catches them by hand, so just need a friend. Look at this puppy that wants me to pet it.
Speaker 1: All right, uh people, it's uh getting to be about last call for them traffic school questions 208-535-1015. All right, let's go to the phones. K-Bear, you are live on traffic school. Who's this? Jace. Jason, what's up? So I was wondering.
Speaker 4: Just how drunk do you have to be to allow your wife to drive the car for you?
Speaker 1: Ooh. Uh legal limit in a commercial vehicle is 0.02. Legal limit uh as in normal operator is 0.08. Um excessive is 0.20. And so at about a 2-8, I think that's All right.
Speaker 1: all right, man. Appreciate the call.
Speaker 2: No, let's clarify.
Speaker 1: You're drinking it all. Let your wife drive. It might be dangerous. Might be dangerous, but just do it. All right, fine. All right. Thanks, man. Thank you. What is going on? I oh, that's an old message. I was gonna say Carl sent me a really long message at some point that I did not see. And he says, absolutely put a coyote in it. That's what he messaged me. Yeah. So K Bear, you are live on Traffic School, powered by the advocates. Who's this?
Speaker 3: Dave, what's up, dude? Not much, man.
Speaker 2: What Good to hear from you, dude. got What you got for us?
Speaker 3: So my question is uh pedestrian crossings. The you know the lights where the pedestrians push on the sidewalks and they have to stop to let them by. So you know, they push the button, everybody stops, they go by, but the traffic lights haven't finished running their cycle yet. Do you have to stay there?
Speaker 2: So when you push that button, you're not supposed to go until it gives you the uh white person uh the white light, and it looks like a person, and then you can cross. But then when it starts going, okay, stop ten, nine, eight, you're supposed to have the intersection cleared.
Speaker 3: No, I'm talking about the lights that come on red.
Speaker 2: Oh yes. Okay, so in the middle of a block and they have a crosswalk, you push the button, it starts caution lights with flashing. That's to tell the traffic that hey, this is gonna go red. Once it goes solid red, you have to be stopped. Once a solid red uh goes off, now it goes to a blinking red. What it's saying is you have to stop, make sure the intersection did get cleared, and then proceed with caution.
Speaker 3: Okay. Yeah, that's that's what my wife kept saying, but I'm like, they already walked by. Why do I need to stop?
Speaker 2: In case there's somebody behind them. Yep. Just out of caution, like a flashing red.
Speaker 3: You know, gotcha anyway. All right, I guess I gotta go home and tell her she's right.
Speaker 2: Uh sorry, this is gonna be the greatest day of her life.
Speaker 2: If you do it with a handful of do
Speaker 2: it with a handful of roses and a chocolate bar, and you'll be in good shape for the next week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. It happens more than I want to admit. All right, thank you guys. Hey, thanks, man. Have a good one.
Speaker 2: Wonder if his wife would like to start a driver's ed course where kids can't learn how to drive.
Speaker 1: Sounds like she should. She knows her stuff. She makes money.
Speaker 1: K-Bear, you're live on traffic school. Who's this? Casey. Casey, what up, dude?
Speaker 3: Hey, uh, question. In my neighborhood, what is the extent of things that kids can throw at vehicles? For example, my kids want to throw water balloons at cars.
Speaker 2: So by the letter of the law, you can't throw anything and hit anybody else's vehicle. Okay.
Speaker 3: And unfortunately, people don't have a sense of humor anymore. Say that again.
Speaker 3: Even if they're doing 50 in a 25.
Speaker 2: Even no matter what they're doing. Yeah, no matter what they're doing. Now I'll tell you the problem with throwing water balloons when I was in the academy today. I thought we're gonna add more stress to these guys. So they got a bunch of water balloons, and then you come around this corner, they were smacking you in the windshield with these water balloons. And there was 18 of us in the academy at the time, and I think they broke like six windshield. Jeez!
Speaker 1: Okay. So that's why you don't throw water balloons.
Speaker 2: And the uh captain at the time over the training section said that will be the last time we do that.
Speaker 3: So what would the fine or punishment be for that if they got caught?
Speaker 2: Um, it's a misdemeanor. So they'd have to go in front of the judge.
Speaker 3: Okay, so not just an infraction. Nope. Not worth the risk.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, that wouldn't be fun. Believe me.
Speaker 3: All right, that that answers it.
Speaker 1: All right, man. Sorry to ruin your kids' good time.
Speaker 2: And typically that would join them, but
Speaker 2: typically that would turn into an altercation.
Speaker 1: Fair enough. Well, hey, man, you have an awesome weekend. You too. Love you guys. Love the show. Thanks, man. There you go. Peace. I think that went pretty well today. Not too shabby.
Speaker 2: Man, I loved how you hung in there right till the end.
