Things You Pondered Today

if an ambulance driver is en route to the hospital for a very time-sensitive medical emergency and gets in an accident with a pedestrian or another car what do they do? I feel like there must have been times when an ambulance has gotten in accidents that involve other people and injured them as a result of their fast driving/people not complying with siren traffic protocol. i'm not saying that ambulance drivers suck but as elvis costello once crooned 'accidents will happen'. i was just wondering because it seems like if they stopped to help or call for help. they would be defeating the purpose of rushing to get help to the person they already had in the back of the ambulance. there would also be a slight tinge of irony if they called in another ambulance to take care of the new victim.

i brought this up to my friend and she essentially said "its their own damn fault, you're supposed to pull over when you hear the sirens". which is true but seemed potentially irrelevant because people are given emergency medical treatment for injuries that were "their own fault". i tried to google but the only accident i saw was a crash where the ambulance driver was checking the gps and drove it into a ditch. which is also pretty fucked up but it wasnt really the problem i had thought of. I feel pretty dumb for not knowing this kind of shit butt fuck it.

It would probably depend on the severity of the accident more than likely. They would definitely call in another incident to dispatch and get an additional response unit. More than likely they would continue with patient care of the initial patient, while making a primary assessment of any new patients until the next responders arrived on scene. At that point they would continue to the hospital with their initial patient. In response to your friend's statement, the emergency responders are always held liable in an MVC regardless of whose fault it was. This is because they're held to a higher standard. They will never deny patient care regardless of the situation though.

i've got hep C. i seen that some euro kids did an experiment w/ cell phones and seeds. basically the low radiation emitted from the cell phone inhibited cellular growth in the seeds and nothing came of them [while in another room the seeds judy bloomed]. i'm applying this science to my liver and keeping my obama phone in my right jacket pocket, a little modern homeopathic cure.
i'll letchaz know how it works out and hopefully it's not enough radiation that i trade hep C for the 'big C'. wouldn't that be kafka-esque?

Not trying to bum you out, but in many cases hep c does turn into the big c, (hepatocellular carcinoma to be specific). On the bright side, what have you got to lose?

not bummed kolostrum. i think heppa to the hoppa is only fatal like 1 in 20 and though i did a number on myself drinking i've got 4 yrs offa that so i'd like to think i'm fixing myself. wouldn't that be the ultimate irony, quit drinking [currently] quitting smoking and get cancer regardless. realistically i'll overdose before i rot away from some disease but i wanna skate and have my dick work until such a time so i'm half nihilistic and half trying to live forever. and 3/4 shtooops.

Even if you didn't take a shit, your toilet paper plies can still smell. So it's not really an effective way of knowing

but tasting your butthole works like a charm? this is highly confusing.

[L33Tg33k]

I can imagine a blind guy trying to do a smell test and bringing the tp a little too close to his face. Might even give himself an accidental Shitler.
