Emergency Lights & Sirens on POV?

[SandpitMedic]

Using.... no more.... than your hazards....to help .....at MVAs.....

 

[adamNYC]

I wouldn't want to be mistaken for a Hatzalah now

 

[SandpitMedic]

You intend.... on getting..... a tech bag.... so you can volley.... and work paid....

 

[SandpitMedic]

Literally... I can't even....

 

[adamNYC]

I already volly and I already work paid

The tech bag would be for pov and street emergencies as I see them. Nothing to do with volly or paid EMS

Since were apparently on the meme wagon...

 

[SandpitMedic]

Is this real? Am I in real life right now? Is anyone else seeing this? Is this Adam dude for real though?....


@CALEMT hahhahahaahha. That's a good one.

 

[SandpitMedic]

I swear I wasn't initially trying to antagonize this thread...And then I was..... But now I am really perplexed....

[CALEMT]

In all seriousness though. Why do people feel the need to go full wacker and have the Christmas tree POV and the tacticool high speed full blown MCI bag in their vehicle? I don't know about y'all but I get enough code 3 driving and "beating the reaper" at work. I like my days off and thats what they're for. Days off from work, ever hear the saying keep the work life at work and the home life at home? I understand this career you work all sorts of hours and days but give it a rest people. Do you necessarily need to stop at EVERY T/C you come across? No you do not. Dialing 911 and keep on keeping on is perfectly fine and theres no shame in doing that. Why some people feel the need to get the "I do everything a doctor does at 80MPH" feeling 24/7 is beyond me and to be blunt and honest it makes the rest of the EMS community look like a bunch of freaking ricky rescues. Theres a reason why people don't make fun of and respect the fire depts. and police depts. is because you don't see them responding to freaking calls of duty. Rant done.

I beg to differ about PD. once a off duty PD with a shield around his neck told our ambulance who stopped to help two vehicles in an mva to move to be side and he called in for a PD unit to write the report

I think this will sum it all up......

and this one time at band camp......(fill in the blank with well I saw something one time, so obviously it happens all the time in all situations)

I'm just curious, before getting involved in EMS, how many times have you ever, in your life, actually encountered a situation where you're getting flagged down in your POV? Why would you get flagged down in a POV? If you were out on the street with a buddy and they suffered an acute medical condition causing you to call 911, would you flag down random POVs on the off chance there's a medic with a full ALS kit bag willing to risk his license to illegally practice medicine off duty?

 

[adamNYC]

I don't wait to get flagged I stop and help PRN

 

[SandpitMedic]

Well... then the begging question is... What if you aren't "PRN" at all?

Because I would rather die.... than ever any sort of "PRN" you.
Although, I do literally laugh at your posts. It is bewildering and comical at the same time.

 

[Jim37F]

Wait what? If you don't get flagged down, how do you know when/where to stop?

 

[adamNYC]

I'm glad to provide some entertainment at least
