This really has me PO'd!!! Why don't people MOVE OVER on the roads to let emergency vehicles pass!?

Early one morning last week my new born daughter quit breathing and turned blue, I called 911 and EMS came to rush us off to the hospital. Today my daughter is fine, no thanks to all you butt holes on the roads who refuse to MOVE OVER to let an ambulance pass. I don't give a frogs fat butt if you are trying to get to work on time or to the golf course or to the stinking theme parks! YOU NEED TO MOVE OVER!!!! Seriously people, how would you feel if it were your child, sibling, parent or friend in that ambulance and no one moved out of the way to let the ambulance pass? I can tell you how I felt, angry at the idiots on the road and worried about the life of my new born daughter, seconds DO count. I am absolutely amazed at how many people have their heads so far up their own butts and are concerned solely with them selves that the lights and sirens of an emergency vehicle mean nothing because "they" have somewhere to be.

The next time you are driving down the road and you hear an emergency vehicle imagine that it's one of your loved ones in need of help and MOVE OVER.

Happy to hear baby girl is better. This is caused so many times, for the simple fact most people have the music up so loud with bass, they can't even here themselves think, they are on the phone, they can't hear to begin with, and they forget the three second rule, which is every three seconds you are to look in all your mirrors to see what's behind you. Just ignorance on the highways.

YEAH!!! Move Over!

Everyone I see on the roads will get out of the way, bbut I have seen footage in New York where ambulances are behind people, sirens and lights going, horn honking, and these exhaust nozzles just sit there, uncaring that someone may die because of them.

Sorry to hear about her being so ill. You must have been scared out of your mind!

CatsPJs, glad to here the little one is okay!

Many people don't move over because they don't realize that an emergency vehicl is behind them. Most drivers never look in their rearview mirror unless they are checking out their hair or make-up, and the combination of new cars being so quiet inside and the stereo blasting the drivers don;t hear the siren.

Then, when they do finally realize that an ambulance or cop is behind them, what do they do???? Do the pull into the other lane......NOPE, they slam on their breaks right in front of the rapidly approaching emergency vehicle. Smart,......really smart!

This is ONE LAW I WOULD LOVE TO SEE PASSED:

Require ALL CAR STEREOS and CELL PNONES to be INTERUPTED with a voice projected by the oncoming emergency vehicle that ALERTS YOU it is coming and get your BUTT OUT OF THE WAY! Don't move over, do like the cop cars, install video recorders on the emergency vehicles and then send the DOOFUS that was so damn brain-dead they couldn't move over a citaton for NOT doing so. And if it were possible, give them a second one for being STUPID and SELF-CENTERED.

Nothing aggravates me more than people that WILL NOT MOVE out of an Emergency Vehicles path!

p.s. Glad you're baby made it!

I think if someone IMPEDES an emergency vehicle and the patient they are transport dies BECAUSE they were blocked by some IDIOTIC MORONIC BOOB, then that MORON DRIVER should be up on MURDER CHARGES! After all, seconds count and I think if drivers got life in prison because someone dies because they were too brain dead to move over, this would (I hope) make over drivers think twice before NOT moving out of the way!

Here'a another thing that really p.o.'es me about this too (and I'll bet most folks here will agree):

Emergency Vehicle is coming and you do your part and pull over, several of the vehcles behind you pull over to allow it to pass, but then when they pull back out on the road, they WILL NOT let you back onto the road and you have to sit and wait and wait until all the people that were behind you pass you by and then some before you can get back out on the road. NO COMMON COURTESY AT ALL! When I pull off BEHIND someone and get back on the road BEFORE them, I ALLOW them back out, why are so many drivers so damn braindead they do not understand they should PERMIT these people back on the road instead of PUSHING BY THEM like their *ss is on fire?

Just something that really burns me up no end, DISRESPECTFUL DRIVERS!

You would be so proud of me....I was the only car on the road last night while driving home from Renville, but I still pulled over and stopped for the oncoming Ambulance.
I don't know about Florida, but in Minnesota the laws require us to pull over for all emergency vehicles and the police if they have lights on. We also have to slow down and use the other lane if an officer is pulled over on the side of the road. If you get caught disobeying the fines are astronomical.

Right on Native...I hate those JA's on the freeway too that think they are so more important than everyone else and they use the shoulder as a lane so they can get ahead of everyone. They often cause accidents and screw up the merging of on/off traffic. I also hate the dumb people who instead of paying attention to the 50 signs 5 miles before that a lane is closed and they have to merge. Stupid @sses just keep moving up to the cut off point and then expect to be let back into traffic. MORONS
