  • This wasn’t a typical driver in an urban environment, again thus was the middle of nowhere with low traffic. They also, again, weren’t trying to reach the hospital, they were being instructed to meet medical staff halfway as the dispatcher and emts determined that was the best course of action.

    But it’s obviously that you’d rather feel morally superior than compassionate for someone trying to save a life; and you clearly have experience making these kinds of judgement calls, right? What a sad, sad person you must be.


  • That’s not an ‘emergency flasher’ button, it’s the hazards, and it’s for when you’re broken down or crashed, or (illegally) stack your home depot run 17 pallets high.

    I’m a first responder (at least, used to be) and that button is known in the states as the ‘park wherever you want’ button and nothing else.

    Fun fact, using the hazard indicators while moving on a public road can be a cited offense. But you have fun going wee-woo and playing pretend emergency man. Maybe lose the snappy attitude though, it’s indicative of your age and knowledge.

    Though I read a story (I think on lemmy, though it’s been a while) of someone trying to meet an ambulance in the middle of nowhere (Texas, I want to say?) as their friend was bleeding out, basically.

    A lady did what you describe and it took critical time away. The friend ended up dying just before they met the emts.

    Not everyone who looks like they are a dick, are one.
