Drivers who block in emergency vehicles should get an automatic prosecution on the spot for failing to give way to emergency vehicles in the course of their duty.
I 100% agree with you!
@@jeanlongpre_911Action Agree
get their vehicle impounded indefinitely
Agree
There was a red light wasn't there? You can be prosecuted for jumping a red light to give way to emergency vehicles. You can be prosecuted for breaking any traffic laws to give way to emergency vehicles. I know it seems daft but what if they had caused an accident by jumping the red?
Shoulda used that big bumper in front - shove that car out of the way. Then followed with a hefty fine.
Yeah, I agree with you ;-)
And a bill to repolish the bumper.
@@ericwinn6987 that’s why you lightly tap the car then put your foot down
Yep. Damn right he should have. That person could have caused someone to die without the first responders getting there on time. I hate selfish people like that.
Good plan!
This stuff is easy; $1,000 fine, loss of driving privileges for one year, 40 hours of driver training and re-take test for license. Publicly display all drivers that do this and follow up with court pics and drivers test pics. I'm telling you, this stuff is easy to take care of.
agree with you :-)
I'm not going to break one law to follow another. Emergency vehicles/authorities are no better than the average citizen.
You would sing a different tune when they are needing to respond to an emergency that involves you or a family member, and they were delayed because of a idiot driver got in their way.
Robert Merkle - emergency vehicles have the right of way when responding to an emergency. The law requires that other vehicles on the road give them the right of way. Why do you have contempt for the people that might save your life some day.?
R P ok but it’s not that simple
The fire trucks should be able to ram the cars out of the way, and the offender should have to be able to pay for the repairs to the trucks. Also pay a hefty fine. No excuse for blocking emergency vehicles.👍😁😎
Best part is, if a fire apparatus is in an accident with a car, they only pay the deductible, the car's insurance or owner pays the rest 😂 including damage to their apparatus
@@radciff2281 If they ram them on purpose, it's not an accident, and the reason they can't do it is that they might cause greater problems by ramming them. Hit an older person, cause a heart attack. Hit a pregnant woman and make her lose her baby. Hit the car and damage it, causing it to become immobile. A lot of things which could end up costing them more time. Best to take down her license number for the fine, and direct her to move.
@@EClark-nu5nrYou're right bro. 😂 I'm just egging it on for the fun of it. 8 years wasted on youtube, I think I had a serious tone 3 times total 😂
There should be a three honk rule. First: move! Second: Warning! Third: Ramming! Simultaneously with the third honk the firetruck should start pushing the car away (preferably causing as much damage as possible to the car).
I definitely vote for this idea!
Problem with that is that they need to use their horns constantly so if it was any specific amount of honks then they wouldn't be able to use their horn when they needed to. In reality, it just makes more sense for them just to do it if it takes too long but honks is not the way to go.
@@preston5164 yes you are right but they should push cars more often to teach people a lesson
I agree 👍🏽
I agree
They should have pushed the damn car, they done it once in the Old Montreal, it's on UA-cam.
@NickyNick yeah.
That EOne airhorn sounds AMAZING!!!
Yeah, at least it is :-)
E ones all have that same awesome horn
why didnt they just push the car out of the way?? The jackass even stood there after a firefighter jumped out and told it to move
I always thought the same thing, why not pushing that car out of the way???
Anyway, I am pretty sure the driver is just an asshole ;-)
Because we live in a world that condones suing the likes of the fire service and I expect there would have been disciplinary action for the driver and his chief!
I can understand that some people are afraid of running a red light and breaking the law, but at the same time, if you see you are clear to enter the intersection to make way for the emergency vehicles, then by all means, it's going to be the only time exceptional. Cops are more likely to give you a ticket for NOT moving out of the way rather than moving out of the way at a red light.
I agree with this. This is the only time you can go on a red without being worried ;-)
People are worried about getting a red light camera ticket.
No excuse for that black car tho. Just make a right turn if you’re afraid to do what the silver minivan did.
@@checkandrade Exactly I spotted that too!
In my city if you run a red light even if it's to let an emergency vehicle through you will get a red light camera ticket and you will lose if you try to fight it in court. State law says you cannot break a traffic law to give way to an emergency vehicle. Now I assume if right on red is allowed in Montreal, he should've just turned right and lived with a slight detour. But yeah in my state, if you run that light to let the truck through, you're getting points on your license and your insurance is going up.
It’s best to use a horn to deaf him!
Yeah, you are right!!! The fire truck driver should also have the rights to push the cars blocking them ;-)
Yes, push that car to the another vehicle line.
Those guy are good drivers and I am pretty sure they can push the cat at the right place ;-)
@@jeanlongpre_911Actionno they shouldn’t. Not sure why you think creating another emergency is the best way to respond to one based on how many comments you’ve said this. By the way he was simply sitting at a red light, so he was not doing anything.
Give the paramedics and firemen the benefit of the doubt they are responding their service and time and efforts are deeply appreciated they are taking care of business and doing there jobs love and appreciate you guys great job great catches as usual way to go you guys rock thanks ! Joe
Those few seconds wasted could mean a lot for someone for whom they are responding to.
I agree!
I was in my apartment and heard a fire truck with the siren and ran to my window it makes me smile.Great video jean always the best:)
Thank you no map :-)
If I hadn't seen the "Montreal" decal, I could've sworn that was a New Jersey driver!!
ah ah ah ;-)
hey
Glad to see you used the correct description of the driver in the title---IDIOT!!!! Some people have no common sense....others have no sense art all. I wonder how some actually function from day to day?! My oldest son has been a volunteer firefighter for twenty years & loves it, but the stories he has about the IDIOTS they encounter when responding to a call.....oh my!!
Thank you. I hope one day this driver will need the firemen and at this time he will remember the day where he blocked them. He will then realize that he has been a real idiot ;-)
Typical BMW driver
Yes you are right ;-)
bullshit
@@dxb8086 Crap comment BMW own the road
I think the truck was using the English sirens and not the French ones was the reason why the driver refused to listen/understand them.
HUm hum hum, not sure about that. I think the driver refused to move because he was affraid.
*facepalm*
It is a possibility
the driver flipped off the firetrucks after...
I mean I think the whole big red fire trucks with flashing noises and lights on behind you honking, then knocking on the car window was plenty of notice. I think if I went and drove in Papua New Guinea I’d understand that
Can you imagine the conversation from the Captain that got out to speak to the driver of the BMW. "AYY BRUH...MOVE YOUR SHIT OR THIS LADDER TRUCK WILL MOVE IT FOR YA!!!!" 🤣🤣🤣
I would have like to see this. It would have done a great movie ;-)
I think the Fire Chief should be able to write fixed penalty sitations when this happens, especially with the dash cam footage from the fire truck to prove it. Perhaps then people would think a little more.
Yes, I agree with this idea!
Would not work in the US. Only police here can write traffic summons and you need to prove the registered owner was the one driving. That's why hit and runs almost never get prosecuted because the owner of the car will go to court and say the prosecutor can't prove beyond a reasonable doubt that they were in control of the car when the collision happened. Also in my state, you cannot run a red light to allow an emergency vehicle through because you could cause an accident. If this black car ran that light to let that truck through, he'd get a fat camera ticket, some license points, and his insurance is going up.
this is why fire departments should be allowed to push cars out of the way for cars who refuse to move out of the way, with all liability being on the driver they had to push out of the way
What a great idea! I would like to film this if ever it become permitted ;-)
That driver had some patience, I would have winded that Q to max and been laying on that horn.
Emergency vehicles cannot force someone to drive against the laws, like through a red light. The car driver could have turned right, as long as it was not prohibited by signs, one way, etc.
Great Catch! And Great camera work too!
Thank you very much!
My anger issues the whole time: 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈
My brother has been a firefighter here in the UK for decades.This has happened when he's been driving in London on many occasions.He's often had to nudge the car out of the way(none to gently!)-the offending driver has,as stated in the law,been fined £1000 and given three penalty points on their licence.it's amazing how many drivers defend themselves by stating they hadn't realised there was an engine trying to get past,you know,that massive red vehicle,driver leaning on the horn,sirens blaring and lights flashing.
The truth is that it is still illegal to run a red light, even though it's for giving way to an emergency vehicle.
I agree it is illegal to run a red light but in this case it is not to run a red light but to move right a couple of feet.
He was probably texting with airpods in his ears. There is never a police officer when you need one.
I would have like to see Police officers there and arresting him :-)
@@jeanlongpre_911Action That would have been amazing!
:-)
Just another bm driver. What would you expect?
just an innocent person, bad for him.
If the idiot in the BMW had been watching his mirrors, he could've just pulled further over to the right. The white car could make more of a sharp left turn in front of the car with it's headlights on. That would've given the fire trucks room to get through without any cars running red lights.
I totally agree with you :-)
But the laws said you can cross a red light if this for let pass emergency cars or truck no ?
@@jonathancameron3416 Different countries have different rules. In my country (Australia) it's "make all reasonable and safe efforts to make way for emergency vehicles". Driving across an intersection with a red light is dangerous. I've seen dozens of people do this and nearly get T-boned (two actually did). It's bad enough when you're driving a vehicle with bright livery, lights and sirens across an intersection. Stay safe out there.
Drive through the SOB
you are right. He is a SOB 😉
A buddy of mine who was a driver, shoved a car out the way. He told me "That stupid fucker shouldn't have blocked my path".
he did what he had to do ;-)
Look at how every car except that one a-hole moved to the opposite lane like a decent moral driver.
It would have been so easy to this BMW to just move out the path!
We should be to respect the paramedics and firemen who proudly serve us your service and time and efforts are deeply appreciated thanks they are busy responding give them the benefit of the doubt it amazes me how rude they can be without thinking about it use some common sense people !❤❤😂😅 ! Joe
I don’t think anybody in a BMW knows how to drive lmao
I agree with you. He got his license driver in a box of Craker Jacks!
moi je l'aurais poussé avec la barre en avant peu importe quelle marque de char que c'est il a les sirènes et le klaxon au fond vient pas me dire qui l'a pas entendu c'est impossible
Bien d'accord. Pas de niaisage, c'est un urgence et le monde doivent s'enlever lorsqu'ils arrivent.
I believe in the US, they are allowed to ram blocked vehicles and then file any damage to the fire truck against the blocking vehicles insurance.
USA know how to deal with these morons!
Imagine being rammed because you chose not to run a red light
Always give way, and get out of the way, for emergency vehicles. One day the call they are going on could be to you.
well said!
Money can buy a BMW, but it can’t buy brains or common sense.
Very good point!
I have seen Fire Apparatus push cars out of the way in Seattle WA. This silly driver was lucky.
I would have like a lot to see it!
Bro. Those fire truck have Mad Max like chrome pushbar... USE THEM
J'en reviens pas qu'il l'avait bloqué comme ça. La vie des gens est en risque.
Met`s en, irrespectueux :-)
Typical BMW Driver ... smh
they think they are alone in the world ;-)
jean longpre - terribly frustrating
Imagine that- driving a BMW & thinking he is more important than the First responders.
Here in the UK the rule is do not break the law to allow an emergency vehicle through so, the car that refused to run the red light did it correctly.
he could have turned right legally
he could have just move a little bit without going through the red light.
Did the driver give them the middle finger when they finally pulled up?
Nope, they have more class than this idiot driver ;-)
That POS in the car should have been arrested for obstructing an emergency vehicle. There was plenty of room to pull over.
I agree with you at 100%
We needed all that noise because the driver didn't respond accordingly. Now we don't know why?
Is it legal to go through a red light in these circumstances in Canada?
(It is not everywhere, e.g. £100 and three points on your licence in England.)
well im not sure if its legal per se but the intersection was probably cleared anyway from the siren so it would be smart for the car to get tf out of the way. cops would rather write tickets for blocking the fire trucks instead of a red light ticket. over here, red light tickets are also pretty minor i think
I don't know as far as Canada goes, but I believe it's the same as here in the U.S. Here You must give way to emergency vehicles including at intersections. While technically it is illegal to run red lights, it is typically overlooked if you are clearing a path for an emergency vehicle and as long as it is clear to do so.
This happens a lot more than one would think, there are also the donkeys that when the emergency vehicle is behind them, they slam on their brakes. The sneaky one pull in behind the engine that is running code so they can follow the engine and run the red light. Yes there are people out there that are not very smart.
and that's why the world is like that!
My interaction with the driver would have been:
Sir move your car right now or we’re driving right through you!
in the US, technical civilians aren't supposed to go through red lights even to make way..but that car could have pulled to the right....is going through the red (for a fire truck) legal in Canada?
Technically a lot of times we still do because emergencies someone’s life is more important than the law. You can also just pull a little forward you don’t have to go all the way through the intersection, but once you are already in the intersection just complete the maneuver.
THE BMW driver was DEAF the trucks horn was loud
I feel so bad for the firefighters who have to wait for disrespectful idiots
Did anyone else notice that the trucks light bar wasn’t on
No but the horn was ON ;-)
People who do that need to lose their license and they can learn how to take public transportation.
agree ;-)
Don't know about other parts of the world, but here in Australia, you cannot force a vehicle to break the law (such as run a red light) to get out of your way when responding. You're to stop and switch your sirens, etc off till it is clear and safe to proceed.
You never know what is the emergency is. You need to go there rapidly because there is maybe kids, old persons in distress then you have to move.
@@jeanlongpre_911Action but causes people to panic and maybe create another accident
It's not left as a judgement call. In Australia, NZ and the UK it is specifically spelled out in law that you cannot go through a red stop light to allow emergency vehicles to pass, no matter how much you want to. They even state that aside from pulling as far to the side as possible without entering the intersection "The onus is on the emergency vehicle to find a way through". It also specifically mentions you cannot drive onto the footpath to create space.
This way the Govt gets their cake and eats it too, no responsibility and no liability. You don't let the Emergency Services through, you're a heartless villain, you do let them through and you're a law breaking scum bag with voided insurance, some fines and all the liability for whatever happens. After all the bit lutan1 mentioned about turning off the sirens and waiting is so that they can't be accused of pressuring you.
@@jeanlongpre_911Action You still have to consider liability. Even in an emergency, you have to get there safely. You can't just drive 100 mph without stopping to a call. The answer to safe faster response times is traffic light preemption, better positioning of stations and units, traffic control on high congestion intersections like NYPD Traffic and Chicago OEMC-TMA perform, and policies/urban design that get more cars off the road by encouraging use of transit, carpooling, walking, and bicycles. In my state you cannot run a red light or break a traffic law to let an emergency vehicle through unless a police officer directing traffic tells you to. A firefighter, EMT, or cop not controlling that intersection can't t make you. Emergency vehicles can't make a vehicle break the law to let them through. Reason being that if you force that civilian, who themselves does not have warning lights, sirens, or EVOC training through the red and they get T-boned or hit a pedestrian, not only do you now have an emergency to attend to and will have to send another unit to the original call, but all injuries, damages, and wrongful deaths caused will be legally the fault of the responding department, and the settlements that will have to be paid out will likely result in a massive downsizing of the department to stay within the budget. Lawsuits are very expensive and one of the biggest money holes for cities and states. A firefighter that forces a driver into a dangerous situation that kills them CAN go to jail for it. Emergency drivers have priority, but they are not above the law or totally immune from consequences. Even in this video, you see the dump truck that could not see the firetruck trying to force the car to run the light going through the intersection anyway. If that car would've gone like the lieutenant told him to, he would've been turned to paste.
@@futuredoc2014I'm speechless! This happened at the corner of Jeanne-Mance and Président-Kennedy in Montreal and not on the metropolitain highway 40 exit highway 15 montreal. the car should have moved faster.
Anyone who sleeps like a kumbha karna will wake up. Awesome siren sound
Driver should be fined 500$ for not pulling over to the right
I agree with you at 100%
Fire Engine Siren International means move over, Stupid people should not drive in City. You know? Can We make the Trucks any more Crimson Red for you?
You are right at 100% Richard. Blocking Fire trucks is not the right thing to do as life of peoples depends of the response time. This idiot driver should receive a nice ticket.
He probably didn't want to go through the red light. I don't know the law in this part of the world but if the emergency service person give you a clear instruction (they got out of the vehicle) you are permitted to commit a violation to allow the emergency vehicle passage
I agree with you. The firefighter went out of the fire truck it should be enough!
If you're directed to do it by authorities it ceases to be a violation! It's following official instructions!
This was in Montreal, they don’t know how to drive on a good day. You are permitted to run the red in the event you need to move out of the way for emergency vehicles if it is safe to do so
In my state that would not be allowed. A firefighter cannot tell you to break a law to let them through. If you run the light to let the firetruck through and get into an accident you are at fault, you're getting a massive ticket, and if a firefighter told you to do it, they're legally liable for a lawsuit too. A very expensive one if someone dies or is severely injured as a result. The only person who can direct you to break a traffic law is a police officer in control of the intersection directing traffic. If the cop is behind you and is not in control of that intersection, they can't tell you to run the red either. It's just too much of a safety risk and liability to make drivers run red lights into busy intersections when they don't have the lights, sirens, and training that makes it safer for emergency vehicle drivers to do it. Ambulances and police cars lit up like Christmas trees get t-boned running red lights what makes you think it's any safer for a regular car to do it? What departments should be doing is installing traffic light preemption so the light changes with enough buffer time for everyone to sort themselves out as the emergency vehicle approaches. It's safer for everyone.
@@futuredoc2014if you get into an accident yes but if you don’t and traffic stops for you then you should be okay.
Super super super!!
Thanks!
You have to be really stupid to block the way of a fire truck. That driver was extremely patient. He should have pushed and pushed.
I agree with you!
I already knew it is a BMW before the video started.
ha ha ha!
some people don't need to drive
They should take the bus! That's it.
in the uk it is the fire truck who would get fined for making the car break the law by going over the red light. the car has to move if it can without breaking the law. in the uk we have bus lanes and if you move into a bus lane to give way to an emergency vehicle you will be fined. emergency vehicles have to turn off their lights to stop you breaking the law
How much xtra damage, or how many d e a t hs happened while that selfish driver blocked life saving equipment and men!?
an unconscious person!
What happens is….the light is red….and the person doesnt want to “run a red”. I must say, in los angeles there are cameras and i am not positive i would enter the intersection on a red…..knowing i will get a ticket and then have to spend days trying to get it dismissed.
I realize this is Canada and I'm an American, but you're in for a big fine if you do that where I live. When the sirens start we get out of the way fast.
Unbelievable! Where do these people live? Red, green, yellow or stop sign get out of the way period.
That's it!
The situation in the UK is that it is illegal to pass a red traffic signal, even if an emergency vehicle is held up. This is enforced and drivers of emergency vehicles are instructed to turn off their sirens if cars are held up at red lights. Giving way to an emergency vehicle is not accepted as a defence for running a red light in any circumstances. Common sense is frowned upon here!
Common sense is actually wrong here. The problem is that only in a limited number of emergencies arriving half a minute earlier will really make a difference for saving lives. However, if all motorists respond to emergency vehicles by doing everything they can to allow emergency vehicles to pass as quickly as possible, even when that means running red lights, ignoring stop signs, and speeding, this would also result in many additional traffic accidents. Some of these accidents will actually block the road for the emergency vehicle, or will require help from the emergency workers, thereby further delaying the response to the initial incident. What you would ideally want is that cars remain fairly careful, and only break the law when it is relatively safe to do and really helpful for the emergency vehicles. However, you can't really make a law that way as laws are always to some extent one size fits all.
Where are the police to give him a ticket?
At the Donut's shop ;-)
Its actually illegall to drive past red light even with emergency vehicles behind you
Most insurance companies will not cover you for running a red signal
The possibility for this car to get an accident was very low ;-)
ln many cities it is legal for fire rescue to push blocking vehicles out of the way.
I agree with this method :-)

CE N'EST PAS UN IDIOT! Je me souviens très bien de mes cours de conduite. J'ai eu l'instruction très claire de NE PAS PASSER SUR UN FEU ROUGE pour laisser passer un véhicule d'urgence. On m'a dit, je cite: "il va faire son chemin ailleurs".
Oh! À cet intersection, il ne pouvait définitivement faire son chemin ailleurs.
@@jeanlongpre_911Action Et c'est pourquoi je me permet de passer sur un feu rouge dans cette situation, tout en étant conscient d'être en infraction. Mais traiter cette personne d'idiot parce qu'il respecte simplement la loi, ça ne se fait pas.
@@guylebordelais2387 Tu raconte une belle histoire, mais ta défense, c'était basé sur quel article du CSR? Et je le répète, mon instructeur de conduite a dit clairement à toute la classe qu'on ne commet pas une infraction pour laisser passer un véhicule d'urgence. Et il a dit mot pour mot: "Il va faire son chemin ailleurs". Bref, j'ai compris que les conducteurs de véhicules d'urgence sont supposés être formés à conduire en conséquence. Puis quand j'en ai un qui me pousse dans le cul, je ne manque pas de le traiter de cabochon si il avait une autre option. Il a le droit de passer sur un feu rouge, moi pas.
Le virage à droite permis au feu rouge était récent à l'époque. Mon instructeur en a parlé comme d'une option. Mais il a été très clair sur le fait que laisser passer un véhicule d'urgence n'est pas une raison pour commettre une infraction.
Petite précision: C'était en 2003. Mais depuis, le code a peu changé. J'ai eu à le consulter plusieurs fois pour différentes raisons et jamais je n'ai lu quoique ce soit qui permettre de passer sur un feu rouge, mis à part pour les véhicules d'urgence et seulement dans certaines conditions (gyrophares allumés AVEC NÉCESSITÉ).
Si dans ta cause, le juge a jugé, même sans le dire, et sans que tu le dise non plus, qu'il y avait une défense de nécessité, tu as eu de la chance. Tu as bien fait de noter le numéro de l'ambulance car il y avait renversement du fardeau de la preuve pour cette défense.
Et en passant, la défense de nécessité, c'est pas de ne pas avoir été en infraction. C'est d'être acquitté pour une infraction commise. Donc OUI, légalement tu étais en infraction.
Pour ma part, avec ces nouveaux radars de feux rouges, je ne suis pas certain que je prendrais un risque avec mon permis de conduire parce qu'il ne suffirait pas de lever un doute raisonnable mais il faut PROUVER la nécessité, à moins de tomber sur un juge un peu élastique sur l'application de la loi. Un policier ne m'arrêterait pas en voyant un véhicule d'urgence derrière moi mais un radar photo n'a pas ce jugement et ce serait à moi d'apporter une preuve de nécessité.
Finalement, pense-y un peu... Logiquement... Si il y avait des radars à tous les feux rouges, passer sur un feu rouge pour laisser passer un véhicule d'urgence ce serait un passage automatique devant un juge un peu plus tard. Tu imagine l'attente au tribunal? Tu vois une ambulance derrière toi: "Tabarnak! Je vais encore devoir aller devant le juge!".
Alors pense avec ta tête, innocent! La loi c'est: tu attend le feu vert! Tu passe sur le feu rouge? C'est ton choix, ton risque. En cas d'accident, pas de défense possible parce que tu avais aussi le droit de respecter la loi et on ne pouvait pas légalement te forcer à commettre une infraction. Seul un agent de la paix peut donner un ordre qui outrepasse la signalisation.
@@sg39g Est-ce que cela fonctionne vraiment si différemment chez vous au Canada que dans le reste du monde ?
Ici, en Allemagne, il faut laisser la voie libre, ce qui signifie aussi que tu dois griller un feu rouge si c'est le seul moyen de laisser la voie libre.
Soit ton moniteur d'auto-école était un idiot, soit vos lois sont stupides.
Tu nous diras comment tu vois les choses après trois ans.
@Ponyreiter Il n'y a rien de stupide. Au contraire. Il y a deux principes derrière ça. Premièrement, Le conducteur d'un véhicule d'urgence ne doit pas être la cause d'une autre urgence, soit d'un accident. Deuxièmement, ils ont le droit de dépasser par la droite, circuler dans une voie en sens contraire, etc... Ils sont formés pour trouver un chemin sans mettre en danger la vie des autres conducteurs. Pour eux, forcer un autre conducteurs à commettre une infraction n'est pas une option.
Et je t'invite à lire mon message plus haut. J'ai l'impression que tu ne l'as pas fait.
this is why where i live any time theres a fire theres at least one cop following them nearby
You Shall Not Pass! -_-

When that drivers house is burning down hope someone blocks the truck the same way
But are you allowed to go through a red light when there are emergency services behind you that need to go?
(I'm only 15 so please don't judge me with this question. I don't drive yet and I don't know all of the rules yet.)
In the United Kingdom, the car would be correct. Firemen and medics can't order you though, only a cop can do it. But in Germany, it's an absolute must for the car to violate the red traffic signal, even without an official order from the cops. If this happened in Germany, OMG he is so done. I researched the laws of both countries a little bit.
Ok so what happens in Germany if you run the red light to let the fire truck through and t-bone someone (or are t-boned) because other drivers couldn't see what was going on, maybe a blind intersection or corner? Who's at fault? In my state the reason this isn't allowed is because the increased risk of a collision. I used to direct traffic. If I directed a car to run a red to let an emergency vehicle through and they get hit or hit someone doing it, I'm getting fired, my city is getting sued, and depending on how bad the result is--for example if someone dies--I'm getting personally sued into the ground and may even do jail time for involuntary manslaughter. Ten additional seconds is not worth risking many more lives.
@futuredoc2014 Mostly, the person giving way would be at fault because they can break the law to give way to an emergency vehicle, but they have to do it safely. But at the same time, the other person would also be at fault.
Who is that stupid to get in front of one of those and believe that they are only out for a Sunday morning drive?
A BMW driver ;-)
@@jeanlongpre_911Action LMAO! Good come back
Nice Like 👍
Thank you very much :-)
To idiots saying "I won't break a law to follow another" you CAN go in a red light if theres an emergency vehicle that needs it but carefully plus if you don't wanna go you can pull to the side provided there are no pedestrians
Firefighters WILL break car windows to run hoses. Just push them out of the way. Enact a first responder immunity law to protect them.
I agree!

Those trucks look like the Stillwater trucks from emgergnyc
That is north america...

As soon as the fireman jumps off the truck start smashing windows with the axe then ram that car out of the way.

au bon moment au bon endroit
Oui monsieur! Durant mon heure de lunch ;-)
Please take the license of these people for at least a year. If you don't know this rule there is no place for you on the road.
Probably listening to blaring music or had their bluetooth earphones in!!
not impossible!
Dashcam with pictures and tickets.
Good idea!
Thank you for at least being more sensible than those sick people who want the truck to ram him.
No one walked up and busted all the windows?
Nope! no one.
You aren’t allowed to do that. That’s a criminal offense.
thats why green Day sing that Famous song lyrics.. 😂🤣🤣
Can’t they legally push the car out of the way?
But what does the law say? If we drive through red light here in Sweden we get fined and could lose the license. So here we have to stay, but that is Sweden, life isn't so important here these days as you probably have heard. ;)
When an emergency vehicle is approaching and its light or sound signals are on, the driver of a road vehicle
or the cyclist must:
- give way to him;
-reduce its speed;
- drive as far to the right as possible;
-stop, when required, to ensure the safe passage of the emergency vehicle.
For me, give way to him means that if you are on a red lights you have to move ahead toward the right.
@@jeanlongpre_911Action Yes that would be the correct thing. But in Sweden you are not allowed to do that. There have been a couple of prejudicial court rulings about this. Here you stand still at the red light and when it's green you move forward and out of the way. But Sweden is a sick country so, what can I say...
Blast those cars out of the way with the big truck bumper!!!
That driver getting ticket and court. Date
That's it!!
Must be a New Yorker.
ha ha ha, possible!
