Speaker 4: So you just said something that I would have follow upon.
Speaker 2: Okay, the report's not clear. Correct, that's correct. So that's
Speaker 2: an inaccurate report. I wouldn't call it inaccurate at all.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying you're misinterpreting the wording I see, and
Speaker 2: I'm misinterpreting it even though I just read it directly
Speaker 2: from the report.

Speaker 4: Until a preliminary investigation is complete, the Army says it
Speaker 4: will not conduct training missions around the airport or the Pentagon.
Speaker 4: The FAA changed helicopter routes near Reagan National after January's

Speaker 1: So keeping an eye on this rain. And yes, there
Speaker 1: is still rain around, not in Boston, though we do
Speaker 1: have a lot of fog. The city's pretty much socked
Speaker 1: in here with that fog around, and we are dealing
Speaker 1: with rain and showers, especially outside of the city down
Speaker 1: to the south coast. There's been some rain around parts
Speaker 1: of Rhode Island, Connecticut, and then back out into parts
Speaker 1: of central Massachusetts, especially north central Mass and western Mass
Speaker 1: where we're seeing most of the rain. The precipitation pushing
Speaker 1: off generally to the north, and there's this long trail
Speaker 1: of precipitation going all the way down the coast out
Speaker 1: over the ocean. So we've got these waves of precipitation
Speaker 1: coming in and they will continue to do so and
Speaker 1: continue to make us wet. And later on tonight, even
Speaker 1: closer to the city, we'll see some rain falling forty
Speaker 1: eight for the low tomorrow periods of rain, some of
Speaker 1: it will be heavy with a thunderstorm, could be some
Speaker 1: flooding rains in poor drainage area. Temperatures about sixty or so.
Speaker 1: Some more showers tomorrow night, some more showers on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: and a thunderstorm possible with temperatures close to seventy. It
Speaker 1: gets a little better Thursday and as we get a
Speaker 1: little bit of sunshine around, but we also still stand
Speaker 1: the risk of shower. Temperatures right around seventy. Right now,
Speaker 1: it's fifty one degrees in Boston. A local animal control
Speaker 1: officer dismayed to see dogs behind the wheel, well not
Speaker 1: really driving, but nonetheless there behind the wheel.
Speaker 7: When police pull people over for distracted driving, it's usually texting, eating,
Speaker 7: or maybe even doing your makeup. But now there's a
Speaker 7: new contender.
Speaker 4: It was just shocking because every time I turned around,
Speaker 4: there was a dog hanging out of a window on
Speaker 4: a driver's lap.
Speaker 7: Denim Animal control officer Denny Goldman says she's seeing more
Speaker 7: and more people driving around with their dogs sitting right
Speaker 7: there in the driver's seat. She spotted seven people doing
Speaker 7: this on one day last month. I saw a labrador,
Speaker 7: like a full grown yellow lab on somebody's lab draped
Speaker 7: across them with their chin on the open window. The
Speaker 7: problem being of course that you're supposed to be paying
Speaker 7: attention to the road, not your furry friend behind the wheel.
Speaker 7: Gouldman says this is as bad as any other form
Speaker 7: of distracted driving, and the police have wide discretion to
Speaker 7: give you a ticket.
Speaker 1: A dog, obviously being a distraction, would fall under that category.
Speaker 7: Kyle schaffeld to be Busy Boston's snows Radio.
Speaker 1: And then there's another problem with dogs. Fakes, well, not
Speaker 1: fake dogs, that'd be silly service dogs.
Speaker 3: They can be life savers for so many, but fake
Speaker 3: service animals are becoming way too common nationwide. People bring
Speaker 3: in there not a service dog dog into the coffee
Speaker 3: shop or wherever. With that, we have an increase in
Speaker 3: biting incidents and other stuff. And what are we doing here?
Speaker 6: People?
Speaker 3: Michelle Williams is with Canine Companions, which provides service dogs
Speaker 3: to adults. She has heard from the business owners much
Speaker 3: on a daily basis, and they have their hands full.
Speaker 5: They're questioning legitimate service dog users more skeptically because they've
Speaker 5: had these poorly trained pets in their businesses causing problems.
Speaker 3: And we know that poorly trained is not something associated
Speaker 3: with actual service dogs. So this really hurts the actual
Speaker 3: service dog owners, the people that rely on these dogs
Speaker 3: to get by in day to day life. A recent
Speaker 3: survey of those people reveals that forty one percent of
Speaker 3: them say they've been questioned about the legitimacy of their
Speaker 3: companion when they walk into a place, which makes it
Speaker 3: tough on them. Drew Mohall and WBZ Boston's News Radio.
Speaker 1: When you got to Go, you got to go, and
Speaker 1: when you got to Go. A Massachusetts rest stop is
Speaker 1: one of the best in the country to go at.
Speaker 1: That's according to a survey from the American River Wellness Recovery.
Speaker 1: It ranked the Charlton Service Plaza thirteenth on its list
Speaker 1: of best public restrooms in America. Stop on the mass
Speaker 1: Turnpike is joined on that list by the Kittery Welcome
Speaker 1: Center in Maine and the Salem Welcome Center in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1: More than three thousand drivers voted for the best place
Speaker 1: to stop and go. You are now in the loop.
