Some in my outer Thai family do this.

 

There reason: "i don't believe there's any sick people involved, just the ambulance driver playing a game, trying to get people to move their cars for no real reason.

 

My Thai sons several attempts to get them to change their attitude a total flop. 

😂😂And do tell what his attempts were?

Taveeporn likely knows very well why this happens, most Expats do!

Humvee ambulances with Roo bars is the only solution!

said a year ago on here. in canada the cars move like moses was parting the red sea. it's quite beautiful. 

 

Same in Australia, instant movement by all drivers to very quickly coordinate making a space big enough for ambulance to get through.

The National motto of Thailand - 'Me First'.  Check out the log-jams  of traffic at EVERY Railway Road junction as braindead Thais move into a yard of free space without considering the consequences.  During rush-hour (four till seven pm) every junction needs a traffic cop to help with the flow; YET they don't work after 3.30.

Looks to be plenty of room for the whambulance to go round the outside.... or is the complaint to pickup did not crash through the concrete barrier and light pole to make even more room for it to pass ?
