In my country, if you don’t make room for an ambulance, fire trunk, or PD vehicle in mission, you commit a crime.
A guide to sirens
Only you can help keep people in your community safe. Block and slow cop cars whenever possible.
In addition to the lack of siren and lights meaning they don’t get priority in this case, the important point is they can’t. The other cars have nowhere to go, no way to clear the path. I mean eventually they will, but an ambulance in this situation is delayed regardless of anyone’s best effort
That’s why dedicated lanes for buses and emergency vehicles are such a good idea. Emergency vehicles can get where they need to go, but with more people travelling by bus, there will also be less cars and less congestion. Everybody wins.
Or if nothing else, a dedicated two-way bike lane still works infinitely better than a dead stop car lane.
In my country you only need to make room when the siren is sounding and the lights are flashing.
Otherwise it’s just normal traffic, just like what seems to be happening in this picture.
Yes, and that’s what I said, in a mission.
