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.

Not just Texas but yes. Impeding emergency vehicles from getting shit done is a big no no in every state.

Do big no nos come with mandatory minimums attached, or are we looking at something more like community service plus a letter promising to never, ever do it again?
