You fucking idiot. You're saying you are going to refuse to move for an ambulance or fire engine incase you get a ticket? Well, I hope it's your family burning to death in a house fire that fire engine is on route to, and not someone elses, cos then you'd only have youself to blame
I drive for a living, all day everyday. Towns, motorways, rural, you name it, I drive on it. I will mount curbs, pull onto hardshoulders, drive in bus lanes, stop on padestrian crossings if need be, so I can make room for emergency services to get through if they need to. And I've NEVER got a ticket for doing that. I've got one for driving in a bus lane so I could avoid a queue, but never for diving into a bus lane to let a cop/ambulance/fire engine get through.
