Biden is still living rent-free inside Trump's head as Trump panics about recession
Naa the bipartisan border bill would be law (or close to it)the economy would be in better shape Ukraine would be supported and the money spent would benefit us here in America we would be congratulating ourselves on dodging the coming recession (hopefully not a depression) we would be strengthening our alliances in the face of Russian aggression we would be governed by rule of law within our constitution…….and the felon would be trying to dodge the penitentiary. -

Report Failing to Yield to Emergency Vehicles Could Lead to Severe Penalties
File picture courtesy of Amarin, for reference only. Motorists in Thailand are being warned that failing to give way to emergency vehicles could result in serious legal consequences, including the possibility of being charged with manslaughter or intentional homicide. Under the Land Traffic Act B.E. 2522 (1979), Sections 76 and 148, drivers are legally obligated to move aside for emergency vehicles that are using flashing lights or sounding sirens. These include ambulances, rescue vehicles, fire engines, police vehicles, military convoys, and any other officially authorised vehicles fitted with emergency lighting. Failure to comply with this law carries an initial penalty of a fine not exceeding 500 baht. However, if a driver’s obstruction directly results in the death of a patient or individual being transported by the emergency vehicle, more serious charges may follow. According to legal experts, if such negligence is deemed the direct cause of a fatality, the driver could be prosecuted for causing death through recklessness or even with intent, depending on the circumstances of the incident. Such charges can result in lengthy prison sentences. This issue has become increasingly topical following a number of high-profile cases, including a recent incident in which a taxi driver deliberately blocked an ambulance, leading to the death of a patient on board. The deceased’s daughter later expressed her heartbreak, stating that her father “might still be alive if the driver had moved.” Emergency responders have also reported growing frustration at aggressive or uncooperative drivers during rescue operations. Authorities are now reminding the public that in any situation involving an approaching emergency vehicle, motorists must pull over to the side of the road to allow safe passage. Pedestrians must move away from the edge of the road, while those handling animals must also steer them away from the roadway. Crucially, all road users are instructed not to block intersections or junctions when an emergency vehicle is attempting to pass. Officials stress that every second counts in an emergency and that failing to cooperate could cost lives and lead to serious legal consequences. A delayed ambulance offers lower care than a hospital because ambulances are designed primarily for emergency stabilisation and rapid transport, not for extended or definitive treatment. While advanced ambulances can provide life-saving interventions such as CPR, defibrillation, oxygen, and basic medications, they lack the full diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities of a hospital. Hospitals have access to specialised equipment, labs, imaging tools and a full teams of specialists. Therefore, when an ambulance is delayed, a cardiac patient is deprived of the comprehensive care available at the hospital, increasing the risk of complications or death.
