2615 - Get out of the way!

If you have time the video is 8 minutes and shows what some of the police departments are deteriorating to in the US. This from 2009. Watch in the beginning where the ambulance apparently doesn't pull over fast enough.



The following are links and comments from Youtube. I personally think the cop went nuts for no reason.

UNDATED - There are more details about a confrontation earlier this week between an Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper and a paramedic in Okfuskee County. The incident was caught on tape as the trooper accuses the ambulance driver of not pulling over when the patrol car was trying pass him. What does the law say about who has the right of way?

It was Sunday along Highway 62 in Paden. Kenyada Davis is behind the cell phone camera. His mother was being transported by Muscogee Creek Nation EMS to a hospital in Prague.

I knew this might be too much for a post but there are getting to be more and more of these types of incidences getting put up on the internet.

I watched it. He was driving at a dangerous speed and it was risky for the people on the ambulance.

He needs to lose his badge. He's a menace.

The OHP really needs a replacement. That guy shouldn't be riding for them.
