This morning at work, the chap I was supporting was looking out of the windown at the buses and cars, and we had a few police cars come through with sirens going. He was “telling” cars off for not “stopping”, so I pointed out, that cars need to MOVE, not STOP, otherwise they block the road. I tried to explain how some times it’s not easy to just pull over.
As I drove home from his place, I was driving down the main road, I hear a siren, and spot a good space, where there was space to pull over and allow the ambulance through, I also pulled forward enough to let the vehicle behind me into the space as well. I ended up pulled up behind a bus, but the van in front of me decided to overtake the bus, but instead of moving around the bus, they just stopped next to the bus – in the middle of the road! Perfect example of the conversation I’d had at work!
