Episode Transcript

(00:00):
You listening Morning Drive with Christie Liveon demand. I'm Christy. Producer Karina
is here and it's finally Friday.Yeah, I wanted to ask you a
question this good Friday morning. Isit ever okay to speed? I think
so if it's an emergency. Ifit's an emergency, does that give you

(00:22):
an excuse to speed? You know, I'm a fast driver regardless. Yeah,
Christy, we drive a little bitpast the limits. I think most
people in the Bay Area do.But I was wondering, is it legal
to speed if you have an emergency? I don't think it would be,
but I don't have I don't havea clue. I was reading online,

(00:44):
and you know everything you read onlineis true. Yes, And they said
there's like a special code. Someonegot pulled over and the officer asked them
why are you speeding? Are youin a rush? Is there an emergency?
And the person said no, Andhe asked like, why would it
matter? And the officer he said, yes, there's a code, and

(01:04):
I would actually escort you to whateverdestination you know you're going to if there
is an actual emergency. So isthat what you're going to do now?
No, I'm just wondering if that'sreally true or don't. I don't know.
I would think, you know,because in the movies, the wife
is pregnant and they're rushing, youknow, through the streets of the town

(01:25):
to try and get her to thehospital, and they're running lights and stuff
like that. And does being liketo work constitute an emergency? I mean
technically no, not really, becausethat'd be your own fault. I guess
that's true. But if you knowif that's true or not, or you
have a theory about it, pleasecall one eight sixty six nine hundred and

(01:46):
one three seven tap the red microphoneon our iHeartRadio app. If you ever
got pulled over because you were speedingdue to an emergency, what happened?
Or if you were in law enforcementor you know why uch enough cop dramas
to know the answer, call thismorning because I'm dying to know the actual
facts. It's eighties plus at oneO three point seven Christy Live. It's

(02:10):
eighties plus and one of three pointseven six forty one. Thank you so
much for being here. So wewere asking the question earlier, is it
ever okay to speed? If thereis an emergency? Will you be able
to get out of a ticket oneeight sixty six, nine hundred and one
oh three seven. If it's everhappened to you, people get away with

(02:30):
it in the movies, or ifyou're in law enforcement and you know the
correct answer, got a talk back, you can always join in. Just
tap the red microphone on our iHeartRadioapp. Hey, Christy, it's Ted.
Uh. You were talking about speeding. An emergency doesn't give you a
right to speed. I was speedingto get to the hospital once and a
cop escorted me, but I stillgot a ticket. Day. That's janky,

(02:53):
that's mess, that's super shaky.Yeah. Ah man, oh,
Ted, I want to know thewhole story. Call back if you can,
because I would like to know whatthe emergency and the circumstances were.
Maybe it's happened to you. I'mjust wondering because I read online that there's
a special code that officers use andif you say you're in an emergency situation

(03:15):
and in a rush, they'll likecall that code, they'll escort you and
then you don't get a ticket becauseit's an emergency. Plus, Christy,
I think that you kind of wantto use this all the time. No,
you might be a little bit ofa speeder, but I'm just saying
that's not for me asking for afriend. Yeah, got some Madonna and
the Cars on the way. Thanksfor listening to eighties plus and one O

(03:36):
three point seven point. It's timefor the Crazy Trainer Onlolding Drives with Christieve.
How far would you go to savean animal? Today the Crazy Train

(04:00):
is headed out to a backyard bonfirein Michigan. Not all heroes wear capes.
Some of them just drink beer intheir backyards with their bros. And
that's exactly what happened when a groupof dudes were hanging out in their backyard
when a raccoon made his way intothe party and was choking on a piece

(04:20):
of food. They saw the raccoonchoking, and that's when one guy named
Bill jumped into action and started tryingto do the Heimlich maneuver on a raccoon.
I think that's pretty cool. Ithink it's crazy a little bit lower,
Bill upward vuls God way, dude, he ended up actually saving the

(04:57):
raccoon with his little Minie high I'mLick maneuver. The best part is his
boys just like egging him on,because you know they're faded in the backyard,
like, yeah, Bro's okay.No, it's cool, it's cool.
Are we really saving a raccoon?That's crazy. I don't know if
i'd be able to do that.Hey, hell no, I'll tell you
one hundred percent. I'm sorry,mister raccoon. Not today. They are

(05:23):
not cuddly or fuzzy. I'm notgoing near a raccoon. I'm sorry,
but he was asking for help,the poor raccoon. I'm glad. I'm
glad he's alive. I'm glad he'salive. I'm just saying I wouldn't be
the one to try and save him. They did get it on video,
