So....I live on the edge of a large town, on the edge of London which has a large hospital. Hence we have a lot of ambulances tearing along with sirens going. I admit to being a bit jittery as far as getting out of their way. Yesterday I was coming back from babysitting the other side of town descending a hill when one came up right behind me, so I mounted the pavement, as others in front of me did, I didn't do it very well steep kirb and scraped my tyers a little bit. I was relating this to husband, he said "well mounting the kirb is illegal", "yes I know" says I "but needs must and anyway there weren't any pedestrians on the pavement so I didn't kill anyone" he's always telling me not to panic as ambulance drivers are experienced and used to sorting out a clear passage, in my mind I'm thinking, "this could be life and death, every second counts". What is the correct protocol in these situations, for example one woman I read about entered the "forbidden bus lane" and subsequently got a ticket, surely doing that would have been excusable in such circumstance. What do you do or what would you do?
They're Back! Swifts zinging around!
