Rant:
There's somat which really really really bugs me when I'm responding to a call 'on red' (yes it's called 'on red' even though the lights are blue, no idea why). In 90 per cent of trips 'on red', at some point, you'll be comming up behind a row of cars, the front cars will see you and pull in, many even indicating, but the car between them and you OVERTAKES! Overtakes the cars that have just pulled in! What's the FIRST thing you do before maneuvering? CHECK YOUR MIRRORS!!! I know it isn't always easy to tell where emergency vehicles are comming from, but that's not the point. Whenever you go to overtake a stationary/slowing/whatever vehicle you should check your driver's side mirror. If these drivers did, they'd see a git-fook off Ambo behind them! Wouldn't mind but is all the freakin' time! Seesh.
Rant over. Thankyou for listening.
