Some people always give way for ambulances and fire engines, good on them. Some people never give way (for example if they are at red lights) for unmarked police cars until the lights turn green.
Ambulance drivers can be prats as well.
Does anyone, other than myself, have difficulty determining the direction from which sirens (attached to emergency vehicles) are coming, in a situation where you can hear them, but, not see them?
Personally, I would always attempt to get out of the way, if walking, cycling, driving, but, sometimes, it is difficult to determine what "out of the way" is!
Generally or when driving/cycling?Makes you wonder how blind people manage.
What absolute twaddle. Look up the Doppler Effect for a start.
It is in my case I only have 1 working ear which is devoid of hearing in certain ranges, I cannot determine from which direction a sound comes from without turning my head & then it's still not 100% successful.Hearing sound direction is all but impossible.
But they can appear out of side roads.Do ambulances jump out of the bushes?
