Why do you keep trying to justify bad driving?

I'm not. You don't know that there was. Let's say that you're
driving along past parked cars and you come to a zebra crossing and an
uncontrolled dog runs out at the last minute - literally as you get to
the crossing - 1m in front of you. There is no way to avoid an
accident resulting from that.

So you have a comprehension problem then?

No, but clearly you do.


Read the post again and then stop making excuses for bad driving.



Even an emergency vehicle is required to be able to stop before they
hit something.
The fact that the dog was there and the driver didn't allow enough room
to stop shows that the driver is not very good.

That would depend on how far away the dog was when it ran into the road

It didn't!


Were you there?

Read the post and stop looking a fool.

Do you want ambulance drivers running people down to get there
faster?

No, but I do want them to get there quickly. It would appear that
people are generally supportive of emergency vehicles going faster
than the normal speed limit and for other vehicles and pedestrians to
make way for them.


They should have avoided the dog, they didn't so it shows a problem
that needs rectifying, either by training or by replacement.

The dog can be replaced, that's true. It could be trained, as could
the owner.

You are still trying to blame the drivers error on someone else! Why?

Because it may well not be the driver's error.

Yes it was!



Were you there?

Read the post and stop looking a fool.

A hint: he said the person stepped back but the dog didn't!
It didn't run out despite your claims.
