A few days ago on Mumford Rd I heard ambulance and police sirens while driving, and pulled over to let them go avert tragedy/save lives/whatever the order of the day. Four cars passed me, speeding by to make a light, with the police/ambulance right on their heels, honking and blaring. They had to pull into the oncoming lane to get by, and were very nearly clipped by bisecting traffic at the intersection. WTF Halifax? It takes a lot to get me in defense of police, but jesus christ, pull over. Advancing 20 ft, making the light- you’re slowing down a fucking ambulance. —Road Warrior

i really like the term ‘dumbass’
Isn’t there a fine for failing to yield to an emergency vehicle?
Hopefully the cops got some plates and mailed them a ticket.
