Some things bear repeating. And on this Public Safety Thursday edition of The Valley Today — the day before the 250th Independence Day weekend — Captain Warren Gosnell of the Frederick County Sheriff's Office does exactly that. Host Janet Michael welcomes him back to the studio with a folder of new laws, a warning about the heat, and a story about one of his deputies whose truck was totaled earlier this week by an impaired driver who didn't move over. The conversation opens with a genuine plea from Sheriff Milholland — via Captain Gosnell — to actually take the Move Over Law seriously (with language slightly stronger than his usual style, quoted with permission). It winds through Frederick County's cooling stations, Our Health Campus's downtown Winchester cooling tents, and why the combination of oppressive humidity, heavy fluid consumption, and celebratory alcohol creates a uniquely dangerous holiday-weekend cocktail. Then Niki Foster's Main Street U-turn question from yesterday's show gets a definitive answer (no, and also no), followed by a rundown of the new Virginia laws effective July 1: court-ordered speed monitoring devices for reckless-by-speed convictions and 100+ mph drivers, helmet requirements for kids on scooters and motorized skateboards, new autism-awareness driver interaction protocols, hands-free-law refinements (a driver improvement course option for first-time offenders), a new live-streaming-while-driving ban, and a new restriction on leaving unattended firearms in vehicles. Plus a firm quote from the Fire Marshal's office on what counts as an illegal firework in Virginia (spoiler: most of them), and Captain Gosnell's 10,500th day on the job. KNOW THE LAW — WHAT CHANGED ON JULY 1, 2026 Five new Virginia traffic-related laws worth knowing: • SPEED MONITORING DEVICES — Courts can now order a speed monitoring device (like an ignition interlock, but for speed) as an alternative to license suspension for reckless-by-speed convictions. Anyone convicted of driving 100+ mph SHALL be required to have one for a set period. DMV can also order one for habitual speeders under the "rapid points" scenario. Cost is paid by the driver. • HELMET REQUIREMENT — Anyone 14 or younger must wear a helmet on motorized skateboards or scooters (motorized or non-motorized). E-bikes are covered under separate existing legislation, and local ordinances are being developed county-by-county. • AUTISM AWARENESS INTERACTION PROTOCOLS — Law enforcement is being trained on interactions with drivers or passengers on the autism spectrum. Drivers can now present a packet during a stop to help mitigate a stressful interaction. Does NOT exempt drivers from any rules of the road. • HANDS-FREE LAW UPDATE — First-time offenders can now be offered a driver improvement course as an alternative resolution. Also: it is now illegal to initiate, participate in, or interact with a live stream while driving (whether the phone is in your hand or in a holder). • UNATTENDED FIREARMS IN VEHICLES — Firearms left in vehicles must be secured in a locked box or container. Applies whether the vehicle is parked or unattended. KNOW THE RULES — MAIN STREET U-TURNS AND PARKING A few clarifications for parking in downtown areas: • You cannot park facing against the direction of travel — parking must face the direction of the flow of traffic in the lane where you're parked. (Frederick County ordinance; Front Royal likely has a similar town ordinance.) • You cannot make a U-turn across a double solid yellow line. No sign is required saying "no U-turn" — the double solid line itself prohibits the crossing. • You CAN legally cross a double yellow line to enter a driveway or parking entryway. Look for the visible break in the double line. • A missing witness doesn't make an infraction legal. FIREWORKS — WHAT'S ILLEGAL IN VIRGINIA Direct from the Fire Marshal's office. In Virginia and Frederick County, any firework that: • Explodes • Propels itself into the air • Travels horizontally • Shoots flaming balls ...is illegal. That specifically includes mortars, rockets, Roman candles, artillery shells, and firecrackers (this list is not exhaustive). The community alternative: attend one of the many public fireworks displays across the Shenandoah Valley over the July 4th weekend.

People will shoot fireworks this weekend. Is there a safe way to do it? And what happens when they get hurt?

The Office of the Fire Marshal will be investigating a blaze at a Brampton home that left one man dead; a local pharmacist concerned over the amount of medicine on backorder is calling for action from the Ontario and federal governments; and, dozens of OPP officers who are injured and on leave are challenging a new way their benefits are being determined.

A commercial truck caught fire at 1200 W. 8th St. in Vancouver Thursday night, with flames visible from the engine and cab. An automatic sprinkler system held the fire in check until Vancouver Fire crews cut through a locked gate and extinguished the blaze. No injuries were reported and the Fire Marshal's Office is investigating the cause. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/commercial-vehicle-fire-contained-by-sprinkler-system-and-vancouver-fire-crews/ #VancouverFire #ClarkCounty #PublicSafety #FireInvestigation #Vancouver

Two Ontario residents who were on a cruise ship that’s been hit by a deadly hantavirus outbreak are currently in isolation back at home; Ontario’s Fire Marshal is investigating after a Wednesday night house fire left a Vaughan man critically injured; the Toronto Tempo hit the practice court for the final time today ahead of Friday’s season opener.

After 91 days, the burn ban has expired in Wilson County.  After hearing from Wilson County Fire Marshall Carl Fowner April 27 regarding the recent rain and current conditions, county commissioners confirmed the April 26 expiration of the ban, allowing residents to proceed with burning. The Fire Marshal's Office reminds residents: •No burning while it is dark •Wind speeds must be less than 23 miles per hour •No burning within 300 feet of any structure •Have some type of control method available •Stay with the fire at all times.

Bill McIntyre talks with Nassau County's Chief Fire Marshal and County Fire Coordinator, Michael F. Uttaro about fire safety, emergency response, fire hydrants in winter, and what reallygoes on behind the scenes when alarms go off and sirens are blaring. Plus, we find out if he's ever slid down a fire pole, just for fun.

Fire Chief Trisha L. Wolford of the Anne Arundel County Fire Department in Maryland leads one of the largest combination fire departments in the country, serving more than 600,000 residents—but her path to Fire Chief is anything but traditional. She began as a firefighter/paramedic and built a diverse career through the Fire Marshal's Office, sworn law enforcement, fire and explosives investigations, and service as a Tactical Medic on a SWAT team. She is a graduate of the Executive Fire Officer Program at the National Fire Academy and the IAFC's Fire Service Executive Development Institute (FSEDI), and currently serves as President and Board Chair of the International Association of Fire Chiefs, Vice President of the IAFC's Metropolitan Fire Chiefs Association Executive Board, and an Executive Board member for the FirstNet Authority. Grounded in perspective and gratitude, her story is a reminder that leadership has no rank—and that an untraditional path, driven by grit and purpose, can take you wherever you're willing to go.

You know those people who seem to have all the power and none of the sense? Today, we're diving into three stories of Malicious Compliance that hilariously turn the tables on authority figures. From a new manager who earns a fitting nickname to a webmaster who exposes a government's lack of foresight, we'll explore what happens when people in charge get exactly what they ask for. Get ready to laugh as we prove that sometimes, the best way to win is to just say, "Okay, you got it."

Episode 77 In this episode of Crime to Burn, we revisit the devastating fire at Greybeard's Tavern in Jacksonville, Florida, and the deeply flawed arson case that followed. Randal Wagoner, a local truck driver, was arrested and charged with both arson and murder after the fire claimed the life of Katherine Johnson. What first looked like an open-and-shut case unraveled. Investigators leaned on experts who couldn't back up their findings with scientific proof, relied on questionable witnesses, and overlooked other possible suspects. Was Katherine Johnson's death really a murder — or a tragic accident miscast as a crime? We're bringing you all the shocking details of a case that collapsed under scrutiny, but not before Wagoner spent three years behind bars awaiting trial.

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.The rules for law and order create the boundaries for civil co-existence and, ideally, the backdrops for individuals, families, and companies to grow and thrive. Breaking these rules puts civil order at risk. And while murder is the Big Daddy of crimes, codified ordinances across municipal divisions, counties, states, and countries show the nearly endless ways there are to create mayhem. This season, we put our detective skills to the test. This is Season 8, Anything but Murder. This is Episode 16, house arson is the featured crime. This is First Reports are Rarely Right by Larry M. KeetonDELIBERATIONDrake has a hot one on his hands and needs our help to put the pieces together on this arson case. (Then maybe Cassandra will keep hiring him.) Here are the people on his suspect list in the order we met them:Jack Phillips, owner of the house and disgruntled claimantCommissioner Donna Russell, the Hummer-driving road hogTeresa Kamps, HOA president who lives across from PhillipsRachel Quinn, the Fire Marshall recently promoted to Code ComplianceHere are the facts as Drake has unearthed them:Jack Phillips inherited his parents' home after their too early death. He blames HOA president Teresa Kamps for it. In retaliation, he's let the home run down, just to be an eye sore;On his visit to Phillips, who owns a 30-acre property, Drake was run off the road by a Hummer with a re-election sign on the door for Donna Russell;While interviewing Phillips, Drake sees a collection of pagers that Phillips says he uses to track delivery of restored cars to international buyers;The first report found cause of the house fire to be errant fireworks. Drake and Cassandra found inconsistencies between the original photos and what Drake finds on scene; Under protective sheets are untouched boxes and furniture Phillips is listing in his insurance claim;Phillips states recent maintenance was limited to spraying the roof to protect against moss. It was determined that zinc was used, which is highly flammable;HOA president Teresa Kamps had a 4th of July party that included Donna Russell. She denies setting fire to the house. She admits flying her drone but says she does not spy. There are opinions to the contrary.While Drake is inspecting, a second fire ignites from the baseboard heaters. Inspection after the fact uncovered batteries and melted plastic boxes and pager components in the heaters;Rachel Quinn was the original Fire Marshal on the case. She was also the woman on Phillips computer background. She was recently promoted to Code Compliance and her first action is to use a newly passed code to tear down the twice-burned house;Phillips and the county just negotiated the sale of the 30-acre property for $1.3 million dollars;Jack Phillips just wants what the insurance company owes him;Donna Russell is behind on her re-election bid and wants the HOA for their votes;Teresa Kamps wants the eye-sore gone from across the street;Rachel Quinn wants the promotion and to get Commissioner Russell off her back; andThe county Fire Marshal noted arson is the least prosecuted crimes and it was difficult to determine who had the most to gain.How should Drake re-write the report to get it right the second time?ABOUT True Crim House ArsonFrom my favorite source Wikipedia, comes the curated story of Thomas Sweatt.

Ken Johnson- 32 years of combination experience. Fire Chief of Lodi Fire Department in California. Before becoming Chief of Lodi Ken got his start with Stockton Fire Department where he served for 23 years. During that time Ken promoted through the ranks going all the way from Firefighter to Division Chief Of Training and finally Fire Marshal. The experiences Ken had coming up is second to none which truly in my opinion has shaped the way his mindset is when it comes to the job that can resonate with most Firefighters. Along the interview Ken dropped so many gems and nuggets that I truly hope the listeners can catch on to. One of my favorite quotes from Ken is this. “ I think when you look at making your career path, the path of the fireman you have to do a lot of self introflection and say do I have courage? Do I have courage to do things that are hard when they matter.”
