  • Wait for the fire truck to pass first!

    As I was crossing the intersection near the apartment complex we live at I heard a siren, & so I looked to my right & saw a fire truck approaching the intersection on the same side of the street our apartment complex is located. So I stood on the concrete island & waited for it to pass before finally crossing the intersection.

    Some drivers were impatient. The light was green for them, but instead of waiting for the fire truck to go through the intersection or turn to get to wherever the emergency was, they went through the intersection. Then some drivers honked at the cars in front of them to move.

    A fire truck is approaching the intersection. Can't you wait for it to pass first?!!

    Luckily there was not a single accident at the intersection.

    I've been honked at before for letting a fire truck go before making an otherwise legal left turn on the green arrow, as it had the sirens and lights on.

        I've seen idiots that take advantage of people making space to let emergency vehicles pass....

          Me too. Also, when you're first in a line of pulled-over vehicles, then once the flashy lights pass, they all gun back into the lane and won't let you merge back in.
