Could you ever imagine having a legitimate emergency in this city and then having to depend on an ambulance to save your life? I think if I was ever hit by a car, I'd fare better hailing a cab to the hospital. For whatever reason, no one moves for ambulances. It's like people see and hear the siren and are like "Now if I just stay put, then I have a better chance of making this light then the dying person inside". I honestly hope they have a secret subway system for real emergencies and emergency vehicles just make an appearance when someone is hungry or needs to use the bathroom.
This morning on my walk to the subway, there was an ambulance to my left trying to navigate through the cars. Everyone stayed put, and at one point an SUV passed it on the right! Like screw that guy, I'm using this opening to make MY getaway. I think I passed the ambulance at one point WALKING. All joking aside, I really hope there's another method of transportation during rush hour that I'm unaware, or else legit doctors and surgeons are the ones in charge of the emergency vehicles and the hospital is the destination for a post op recovery.
