Wednesday Mar 30, 2022
Wednesday Mar 30, 2022
It is time again for our talking traffic segment where we hook up with a traffic anchor from somewhere in the USA and talk traffic. Today we are going west to California, to the small town of Bakersfield and talk to probably one of the most unique traffic anchors we have as part of EW Scripps. Officer Robert Rodriguez is one of the Public Information Officer’s for the California Highway Patrol but he is also the traffic anchor for KERO TV, our station in Bakersfield. I talk traffic and some rules of the road on this edition of the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

E237 - How much longer will gas prices stay this way?
Wednesday Mar 23, 2022
Wednesday Mar 23, 2022
I haven’t talked to my buddy Skyler McKinley from AAA Colorado in a while and I have a stack of interesting transportation news that is coming out of his office like gas prices, oil prices, summer travel, road trips and a very interesting story about the increase in fatal wrecks even though fewer people have been driving since the start of Covid. Also, how tone deaf is Moovit sending out the below press release about lower transit use in Ukraine since the war? See for yourself. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

Moovit Press Release:
Hi Jayson,
Public transit usage has decreased significantly in Ukrainian since Russia’s full scale invasion on February 24th. While public transit continues to run, there are no services available when curfews are in place, for example 8:00pm - 7:00am in Kyiv.
Moovit [t.nylas.com], an Intel company and creator of the popular urban mobility app, is sharing this visual to show the percentage of change in demand for public transit in several of Ukraine’s major cities — Chernivtsi, Kharkiv, Kyiv, Lviv, Mariupol. The data is based on the daily active use of Moovit users.
If you are interested in using this in an article, please provide credit to www.moovit.com [t.nylas.com].
Thank you,
Sharon

Monday Mar 07, 2022
Monday Mar 07, 2022
There is a study that finds that the water onboard most major airlines that is served to the passengers is so unsafe that you shouldn’t even wash your hands with it. The shocking discovery was made by hunter colleges food policy center and Diet detective.com who investigated the water quality of 23 different US airlines. Joining me today is Dr. Charles Platkin, the executive Director of hunter colleges New York City food policy center to talk more about this. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

E235 - How a transportation department has morphed into an urban planner
Wednesday Mar 02, 2022
Wednesday Mar 02, 2022
Colorado’s Department of Transportation has changed and morphed from an agency that took care of roads and bridges and safety campaigns into an agency that is about promoting certain kinds of movement and now even development. There is an article written for the website Complete Colorado by Joshua Sharf titled, Commission turns CDOT into Colorado’s urban planner. Today I welcome Joshua Sharf to talk about where we are and where we are going. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

E234 - Those hippos are pretty unpredictable so insurance might be a good option
Wednesday Feb 23, 2022
Wednesday Feb 23, 2022
Have you or do you usually buy travel insurance? I rarely do. Covid-19 travel insurance is now required if you want to visit many international countries including many in the caribbean. I speak with travel insurance expert Omar Kaywan, Head of Growth & Co-founder for Goose Insurance to be here on the show to talk about that and travel insurance in general. Also, Athens Greece is getting new sidewalks and stopping people from parking like a jerk. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

It has been called the most perilous road in America during the winter season. So who would be crazy enough to keep Colorado's infamous Highway 550 clear in winter? My guest Clint Rhoads, CDOT supervisor and plow driver in southwest Colorado is. Also, new federal commercial drivers license testing could make our highways and truck drivers safer and the unique driver who was pulled over without a license. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

E232 - What is traffic prediction and how does it work?
Tuesday Feb 08, 2022
Tuesday Feb 08, 2022
How congested will our roads and highways get in 2022? Will we see more people recalled to the office and see the roads filling up? Are people comfortable with sitting on a train or bus with others? I read an article on the Tom Tom blog called, “What is traffic prediction and how does it work?” The link is just below. I wanted to know what traffic will be like in 2022 and how the change in commuting over the past two years will change the way traffic prediction algorithms work so I invited Jeroen Brouwer Manager of Customer Program Management for TomTom to be here on the show.
