Videos What happens in a situation like this?

Entitled prick blocks a bus because she supposedly wasn't let on. A fire truck is behind - full lights blaring but refuses to move. No space for the truck to pass due to the congestion.

Would anything at all be able to be done? It's times like this that really piss and stress out firefighters, and I'm sorry people like this exist. Hopefully a big charge came her way, but nothing new as of yet as this happened yesterday I believe.

In a city? Just radio dispatch and tell them to let another company handle the call from the other direction. This is an LE matter, not a whole lot we can do.

Yup! Not worth my job being loss because she is having a bad day.
