In many of the nations biggest cities, there are no laws requiring Taxi Companies to fix cabs after safety recalls. Now the center for auto safety is calling for change. First on cbs this morning, we can tell you the organization has sent letters demanding taxicab fleets be required to address all open safety recalls before they carry passengers. Kris van cleave went to one of the cities affected. Reporter good morning. The Baltimore Area has nearly 1,000 cabs picking up passengers. Now theyre required to get an annual inspection by the state of maryland. But the only way a rider would know if any of these cabs have an open safety recall for a defect would be to pull the vin number before they got in. And baltimore is not alone. A review by the center for auto safety found the more than 35,000 cabs licensed in nine of the ten u. S. Cities with the most taxis are not required by their regulators to get safety recalls fixed before picking up passengers. Theres no way for a customer to know. Reporter center for auto safety director jason levine found only San Francisco requires tabs to be screened for recalls. There are no cosmetic recalls. Recalls are only done for safety reasons. Defects are a violation of standards. Reporter in your mind, this something that should get addressed . Yes, there are potential safety concerns here. Reporter the Maryland Public Service commission regulates tabs in baltimore. Transportation director Christopher Koermer says the centers letter has prompted a review of the states regulations. Safety is paramount. As far as looking at the recalls, its complicated. Thats why we want to take a deeper dive. Reporter is it complicated . Cant the state of maryland say you, as a licensed taxicab operator, have to do this . We certainly can. And again, thats why were very much interested in looking at this. Reporter last year, affiliate wusa found as many as one in six washington, d. C. , cabs had open safety recalls. Including for defective takata airbags which have killed at least 24 worldwide. Its not fair for the unsuspecting reporter both of kellys daughters died in a violent crash after a hose broke starting a fire in their rental car. You dont get over it. What you do is you get through it. And it remains with you until you die. It never goes away. Reporter accidents caused by an unrepaired safety defect are not directly tracked. Its impossible to know how many injuries or even deaths are related to them. The center for auto safety has called on Companies Like uber and lyft to require their drivers to also fix open safety recalls before taking passengers. The center says so far that hasnt happened. For cbs this morning, kris van cleave, baltimore. Such a frightening story. I mean, you use really want to know that if youre getting into one of these vehicles that its checked out. And the fact that its not in some cases pretty scary. What he said at the end also about the uber and the lyft. The same thing. You ever get in one of those and then theres an issue .

Some threw objects at officers. Police used pepper spray. At one point, an officer who came under attack drew his gun but did not fire.

Boeings first spacecraft designed for passengers returned from orbit after a Software Glitch forced it to band its mission. The starliner landed safely yesterday in the new mexico desert.

Despite that nasa it was an overall success includeation very rare ground landing. The ultimate goal is to ferry astronauts into space. Before that can happen, theyll need to review data from the flight to see if boeing needs to launch another unmanned flight. When i heard were there issues, i thought, oh, no of what might it be. Exactly. If i think if you are the three astronauts that are going to go up, i would like one more. No matter what it costs, one more. It is cool this marked the first time a u. S.

Part of a fiveyear labor contract that umpires announced saturday with the mlb. Under the agreement, they are on board with the development and testing of an automated ball strike system. It can be a subjective call to say the least which does not always sit well with players and coaches. What do you think is there an element of human error that people expect youve covered baseball i do. But you hear from players and they dont want the human error. Thats why you bring in instant replay. It makes it each more specific. Even more specific, and you can find as far as accuracy. If what i read is correct, in the Atlantic League they had a plate umpire there, and he would get the call from the computer in an earpiece. Maybe i could see it if you have the umpire call it and you use this as a i think im the old person like get off my lawn. I dont know if i can allow that technology to truly take over.

And jeff bridges takes photos while he makes movies and shows anthony some of the favorite behind the scenes images. But first here is todays eye opener at 8 00.

Storms in the southeast have delayed hundreds of flights and slowed down traffic and parts of the carolinas and georgia could see up to ten inches of rain by Christmas Eve. Severe rain shut down Fort Lauderdale airport overnight and delayed 150 flights and in the west storms are expected to last through the week causing flooding and one to two feet of snow in mountainous areas. One of the longest serving members of trumps cab nat is revealing to cbs the advice he gave on impeachment. Dr. Ben carson said he spoke with the president about not giving up. Calling the impeachment very immature. He also weighed in on some of the key testimonies during the impeachment hearings. Throughout the impeachment process we saw and heard from career Civil Servants and i work with a lot of career Civil Servants here. Do you have any reason to doubt that Foreign Service officers who testified in the impeachment readings werent telling the truth . Well, i mean, theyre people. Do people have various reasons for doing things that are not fair . Of course they do. What we really need to be thinking about is the whole concept of fairness. And a wideranging interview secretary carson also explained why he has concerns about possible reparations for descendants of slavery. When you think about the conversations that have happened regarding reparations, do you think that is something worth considering when you look at the inequity with africanamerican wealth versus white americans . What i would say about reparations is show me a mechanism that works. I did my dna analysis, okay, im 77 sub sahara african and 20 european, 3 asian. So how do you proportion that out to everybody. And you can prove youre a descendant a slave though do you but what percentage of money do you get. What percentage of reparation but nobody considered percentage of what black people look like in the civil rights era. They didnt say were not going to discriminate against you because you might be partially this or that. Proportionately, youre not going to be able to figure it out and where do you stop it . It is unworkable. So i would much rather concentrate on how do we provide the opportunities for people to get into a better economic situation. Than they are now. Yes. And one of the reasons we asked him about that is just how you look at disproportionately africanamericans are in Public Housing and talked about that not necessarily been a destination. And then with the program that youll be hearing more about a story fyi which is people who foster out of the foster care system, age out, rather, of the foster care system. 20 of them end up homeless immediately. So theyve started a program at hud to allow people in those situations to have a voucher and have subsidized housing for up to three years but again giving them something based on the life theyve had and the statics so in seeing what weve seen with africanamericans, the wealth gap, is that something that he saw as something worth having a conversation about ands as you heard there, he just said it is too complicated. I find it remarkable that he called the impeachment hearings immature because i think both republicans and democrats would think inconsequential. It is nice for him to talk to us because he is someone that doesnt necessarily give a lot of interviews but well have more on the program hud is doing in reference to the foster care system and people who age out. And the idea when you talk about the foster care system youre starting from a step behind in what you have and we talk about that with economics as well. Good stuff. Thank you. Ahead, what happened when we had three meals in virginia to see what is on voters minds. Ahead, the state turned from red to blue. And one issue nationwide is Climate Change. Well look at the how a california town is using drones to take the the famous christmas celebrations to new heights and actor jeff bridges shows us how he captured what happens on his film sets including the time he accidentally hit actress elizabeth banks.

Kerrygold has a taste so rich it can take you to irelands lush, green pastures. Where grassfed cows produce rich, creamy milk for a truly delicious taste. Kerrygold. The taste that takes you there. In our series the 2020s, can you believe that, were exploring the big topics that will dominate the conversation in the next decade. Today our focus is on Climate Change. Over the last so years sea levels have risen at an alarming rate and biodiversity is declining faster than any time in Human History and millions of people have been affected by extreme weather like hurricanes and floods. As 2019 ends this year is likely to be one of the hottest on record so what with can he expect over the next decade. Meteorologist and climate specialist Jeff Berardelli is here to explain. I know we hear Climate Change and think doom and gloom and the world is coming to an end quickly but what are the Technology Advancements in innovation should we look at to help improve the issue of Climate Change. So this is the best part. Sometimes you go to the doctor and they said there is not much i can do for you. We know the answer. And the answer is to move away from fossil fuels and leaning on Sustainable Energy. And here is the best part. The more we use Sustainable Energy which is energy given to us by the sub the sun and the wind, it is free and the more the prices go down the more we have to create vast industries and vast employment and opportunities for ourselves. So the bottom line is that we could create a better life for ourselves. So we dont have to look at this as a death sentence or doom and gloom, we could look at this as a time to create a brandnew and Better Future with better jobs, higher paying jobs. Just to give you an idea, for every one job in fosle fuels to create one unit of energy you need two or three jobs in the solar power and the Fastest Growing opportunities in the next decade, number one, is wind technician, and number two solar technician. Think about that. Benefit the economy, benefit the environment. And make it clean. Weve talked before on the saturday show about this but the arctic and the amazon seem to bep the two areas with the biggest change that were seeing ahead. So these are tipping points. We need to watch them closely. The amazon, it is being slashed and burned very quickly. Climate change is drying it out and if we dont if were not careful, it could turn into a savannah. So from a rainer forest with all of that life into a savannah. Right now it is acting as a carb carbon sink and pulling carbon and slowing down consequences of Climate Change and pretty soon it may not be able to do that. And same thing with the permafrost in the arctic tundra and that is changed from a net absorber of Carbon Dioxide to being a net emitter which means it it causes Climate Change to spiral and go faster. And we have to watch out for destabilization of ice shelves in the arctic and antarctic, something we hope doesnt happen but if it does sea level creeps up even faster. Jeff, thank you so much. Youre welcome. Next week in our 2020s series we talk about the Health Advancements we could see. And in the podcasts, were looking at the 2020s in foreign policy. Michelle flournoy and Michael Morell talk about how to protect our elections from foreign interference. And coming up, we go on a road trip to see how the president s impeachment is affecting voters in virginia. Youre watching cbs this morning. You know when you go to ross for a few gifts and realize. Oh yeah you shouldve gotten a cart . Thats yes for less. Get gifts for everyone on your list and save 20 to 60 percent off Department Store prices. At ross. Yes for less. And youre not sure wholl be more excited. You. Oh, yeah. Or them . Ahhhhhh thats yes for less. Be a rock star this season and save big on gifts theyre gonna love. At ross. Yes for less. This morning our series three meals reveals what is on voters minds in virginia. We went to hamilton, fredericksburg and alexander for breakfast, lunch and dinner. A state once red turned blue. The npr morning edition drove toward washington, d. C. Where the president was impeached last week. Was that the big subject, the impeachment . It was only big for some people, dana. Much more was on their minds as we heard starting at tommys restaurant in hamilton, virginia, near the ocean. Tommys serves troops from nearby was bases. And five workers at a Navy Shipyard who had breakfast after the night shift. A Nuclear Aircraft carrier. These men see a strong economy, scott see better supports President Trump. He has a different anxiety. Second amendment rights in virginia. What do you mean . Trying to take guns. I think Second Amendment covers it. I dont see where legally he can do it. We must do more than give our thoughts and prayers. Reporter Governor Ralph Northam wants a new Democratic Legislature to strengthen gun laws after a massive shooting in nearby virginia beach. A few feet from the Shipyard Workers sandy and leroy shiflet are following the impeachment. It is not going to go anywhere. But he definitely be impeached. You dont think hes going to be removed from office. No, hes not going to be removed from office. But you still think it is worth impeaching him . Yes. Because he earned it . He definitely earned it and it needs to be taken down a peg or two. Were heading to a location that will help remind us that the debate we heard at tommys just now is part of a longrunning debate over this country that has gone on for centuries. Reporter the battle over impeachment that weve been discussing as we travel has some of the roots here in colonial williamsburg. The legislators once included James Madison and advocate of the separation of powers, including the separation between congress and the president. Today that divided government reflects a divided nation. Including voters torn within themselves. As we learned at lunch in fredericksburg, virginia, at the masondixon cafe. People know fredericksburg from the battlefield. In this cafe which serves breakfast all day, tracy and dan fisher recall voting in 2016. At the voting station, in person looks at me and said im rather largely pregnant and said do you want one ballot or two and quicker than i could stop it coming out of my mouth i said well i guess it depends on who im voting for on whether or not this person deserves a ballot. Reporter that remark focused her mind and what she calls her passion for the unborn. Tracy and dan both voted for donald trump. Somebody watching this is going to understand what youre saying about standing up for people who dont have a voice but then what about immigrant children and children separated from our parents. That is one of the greatet disappointment to watch people taken at the border and split up. Im proud to be an american but america is not the only country and our job should be to be a beacon of hope and light to the people around us. Reporter the fishers say they still cannot vote for a democrat who favors abortion rights. But they see another moral choice. With holding a vote from the president. Im not voting. Im happy not to vote. In this heavy traffic were now traveling into the heavily populated Northern Counties of virgin, the suburbs of washington, d. C. Which have made virginia far more diverse and more democratic. Our destination for dinner is an Indian Restaurant called namaste. The owner is a grant from nepal. Are you a citizen now . Yes im a citizen since 2016. Reporter he now owns two restaurants and employed more than 20 people. He got here through a visa program, the diversity lottery which the president has wanted to end. I dont like it. A lot of people work here also. Reporter this regions diversity makes it vibrant but makes some diners anxiety. It is become like sin to say anything that, like, is not seen as politically correct in that, like, what is defined as politically correct keeps changing. Reporter while mark loftous sounds conservative, sally at the next table has volunteered for Democratic Candidates and favored impeaching a polarizing president. Were thought together as a country. I dont ever remember a time in my life where i doesnt think that we were all one. Even if we didnt agree. The voters we met were sometimes sitting inches from each other are not likely to agree in 2020 but it will matter which of them feels committed enough to show up, vlad. Really such great reporting, steve. Thank you very much. Really fascinating. I love doing those three meals. I love being able to talk to regular people and you find out you can have conversations with folks about how they feel and still be respectful it is sad when it comes down to it and you look at washington, it doesnt feel that way. They should have three meals together. When you see stories like that and people are talking respectful as you say, it does move away from what we sometimes think which is that everybody is yelling and screaming, and it is not like that when you talk to people. It helps over food. Academy award winner jeff bridges uses his love of photography to capture what happ s on film good morning. It is 8 25. If youre heading out the door, so far so good on bay area ridges. Notable spots the bay bridge or the Golden Gate Bridge. We have reports of a Traffic Alert fixing the mainlines of the freeway.

The High Pressure builds in thursday, friday, and saturday was our chances to end the weekend on a sunday. Oh, yeah. Welcome back to cbs this morning, it is time to bring you some of the stories that are the talk of the table this morning. This is where we each pick a story wed like to share with each other and all of you. Dana . Im going to start off with the salvation army. They struck gold thanks to the goodwill of an anonymous stranger. The organization revealed a woman slipped a 6,000 tiffany bracelet and other jewelry into one of those donation kettles. It was in annapolis, maryland, last week. After doing so, she simply said Merry Christmas and kept walking. A commander for the charity said they sold the bracelet after having it appraised for 1,500. Enough to buy six months of meals for the children of the local organization that they feed every tuesday afternoon. That second bracelet has diamonds and rubies. They have it with the gemologist, theyre checking it out. One of the stories i read said that could feed those kids for another year. Wow. They normally hang to jewelry for 30 days unless like in this case she deliberately puts it in there and acknowledges it. What a wonderful story. Love stuff like that. Amazing, amazing gift from one woman. Yeah. Very cool. Vlad . You guys, snl, who wasnt watching eddie murphy . He helped deliver the best ratings for saturday night live in more than 2. 5 years.

Watching the legendary comedian return to host the show after a 35year absence and a range of stars appeared with him including tracy morgan, chris rock, dave chappelle, Keenan Thompson on stage, and of course lizzo, who was here a couple of weeks ago. And our own gayle king was on hand to watch the show theres a picture. A great picture. Yeah. With dave chappelle. My favorite is eddie doing all the classic characters. What was cool is he updated them for the 2020. Mr. Robinsons neighborhood updated was phenomenal. Squatters rights and gentrification. And Holiday Family time. Check it out. It was really, really wonderful. The last time he hosted, guys, was in 1984. He had a picture of himself when he was just a 19yearold, freshfaced comedian that killed. Basically helped keep the show afloat during the period when Lorne Michaels wasnt there. And everybody was supposed to be the next eddie murphy. Exactly. Welcome back, good to see you. Like a 68 comeback like elvis. A great show. Jericka in . Most journalists never want to be the story, right, guys . In this case, you might want to be part of the story. That changed for one spanish tv reporter covering the worlds richest lottery. Take a look at the moment she discovered she was among the winners. [ cheers ] Natalia Escudero was live on air when she learned she had won the christmas lottery. She shouted to the workers in the studio, im not coming to work tomorrow, not speaking spanish. Shes not sure how many she won but clarified it wasnt the big job. The top winners each get more than 430,000. In all more than 3 billion will be given out. So maybe she is going in to work if he didnt get the top prize i think she could afford to take a few days off. If you won the lottery, would i see you back here . I always said id want to start my own network. Wow. Id have to win a lot of money to do that. Work on your own terms. Yes. The days youd like to be there. That id do. Like dave clap yehappelle, c smoke in the studio . Nope light up. Vlads going to be trying that later in the week from what i understand. You dont smoke. I dont even smoke. Its true. Dont put that out there. I do not smoke, people. I dont smoke. Over the past 60 years, oscar winner jeff bridges has gone from child actor to leading heartthrob to laidback counterculture icon. Hes also a bit of a renaissance man adding painting and music to his repetoire. His photography is the subject of a book that features behindthescenes images from some of his most memorable films. Anthony mason recently spent time with bridges in los angeles, both in front of the lens and behind it. 28 millimeter panning lens reporter jeff bridges has always been passionate about taking pictures. Where did your love come from . Borrowing rather than stealing. My philadelphia marathfathers tintoil on the windows in the bathroom and being in with the red light and my tunes going on. The whole concept of time goes out the window. Just the idea capturing time like that. Reporter when he started acting, he left the darkroom behind until 1976 when he starred in king kong. My character, jack prescott, had a camera. I said, im going to load that thing and take pictures, you know. Reporter that started a tradition of taking pictures on his film sets. Photographs from king kong, the fabulous baker boys, and the big lebowski, were included in a first volume of his pictures. Now bridges has released pictures volume two including phobeows from the sets of photos from the sets of true grit, crazy heart, and seabiscuit where he starred with elizabeth banks. I gave her a bloody nose. Seabiscuit, youre winning i cracked her in the face. Oh, god. I said, oh, im sorry, im sorry. Can i take your picture . Reporter he also turned his camera on the inflatable crowd in the racing scene. Gosh, got all those extras up there and youre all dressed in i got closer and i saw it was these guys. See, here it is, theres the baby right there. Reporter bridges, who we met at the annenberg space for photography in los angeles, says the tool of his trade now is a 35millimeter wide luxe panning camera which allows him to shoot the dual image comedy tragedy shoths of his acting friends. Not me reporter he gave me a demonstration. Yeah. Sad. Look right over here. There you go. Shoot. Nice. Reporter bridges was encouraged to go into acting by his father, lloyd bridges, who starred in the 50s and 60s show sea hunt in which young jeff made several appearances. Ive never been here before. It looks the same. Reporter you were on the fence at one point. Oh, yeah. I sure was. For quite a while. I had maybe ten movies under ply belt. Reporter yeah. Before i said, you know what, this is for me. Im the product of nepotism. I dont think i would have gotten into the movies without my dad saying, come on, come on reporter you have to be good to stay in the movies. Thats also true. But in the beginning, i said i dont want to get the part just because of who my dad is. Reporter that changed, bridges says, after he initially passed on a part in the 1973 film the iceman cometh. And a director he just worked with called him. Hello, larry very little boy, saying youve turned down John Frankenheimer . Yeah, im bushed. I just bushed . Youre an ass. Hung up on me. You think i made up a funny reporter bridges took the part and eventually found ways to include his love of music and photography in his acting career. But his favorite photograph is not his own. Oh, yeah. My prize possession youre talking about. Reporter yeah. In his wallet he keeps a snapshot of the moment he and his wife susan met in 1975. So i have a photograph of the first words that my wife and i shared, me asking her out and her saying no. And heres that moment. You know, look at that. Isnt that wild . He was smitten, he says, by her beauty and her pair of black eyes from a recent car accident. Heres a closeup of her. Her black reporter with the black eye. Isnt she something . Reporter susan appears in the book visiting set of true grit. So does bridges standin who hes been working with even longer. Theres my old buddy lloyd catlett, done nearly 70 films together. We met on the last picture show. Reporter how unusual is it to have a standin for your whole career . Absolutely unusual. Got to hold the record i would think. Reporter what satisfaction do you get out of taking pictures . Opening that proof sheet and seeing what you took. You know, i just love that surprise. You always have High Expectations when youre making a movie. Yeah. And every once in a while, it exceeds those expectations. And you go, oh, yeah, man. And that happens in the photographs, too, every once in a while. Youve gotten out of the way appropriately, and the thing is captured. It feels great. Reporter yeah. Bridges did not even know that the photo of him meeting his future wife susan existed until about decade after he married her in 1977. The Makeup Artist who took the picture on a film set in montana found it in some old files and mailed it to bridges out of the blue. The actor says he keeps it with him everywhere he goes. Interesting. Like the laws of attraction. He loves photography and then he gets the picture. And he kept on such a beautiful sentiment. Guys, is there any film that jeff bridges is in that you havent like loved absolutely . Or at least loved him so great. There was that one im kidding. What you talking about . I didnt know about the first book. So i love seeing this now, his photography. Like he is just so beautifully expressive in those pictures. I love when anthony can do stories like this where he takes us into the life of somebody who you think you know because youve seen them on the screen for so many years, but you discover something completely different about them.
