| Article: | Pull over or smile for camera During the last couple of years, a dear friend of my family has had to be transported to the hospital via ambulance several times. Two of these incidents were Code Red, emergency, life-threatening situations with sirens screaming and lights flashing. On one occasion, the ambulance was almost involved in a crash because a car refused to pull over to the side of the road, out of the path of the ambulance. On another occasion, the ambulance followed a car for a mile and a half before it could pass, and then not safely. Perhaps if it had been their mother, or their brother or their child in the ambulance, the drivers might have pulled over. I doubt it; some people are just like that. |
