Oram Po

Not the movie..

I wanted to yell 'Oram Po' to the MTC bus driver today. Why the heck can't people give way to ambulance. Do we need law even for this?

In the ambulance I could see a guy(about my age) sitting next to the driver's seat. He was panicking.. the patient must be someone very close to him. Even after hearing the siren of the ambulance, the bus driver din't care to give way.

CURSES!

Have you seen the movie Ch-28? :P
Anyway, they have started snubbing ambulances too? Too bad... And in the process of overtaking and overspeeding the ambulance itself meets with an accident. Ah what an irony!!

Its just that the bus driver is deaf.:) or the ambulance driver is very slow... Who cares about life of a patient? Its just the patient's relatives and friends...

I see this so many times on Mount road.. sometimes its not just the driver of the car in front at fault..! He wants to move.. but to where..?? its a jam packed road..! If he really wants to move, he would have to mow down a few vehicles on the side...

or sometimes the driver is just plainly indifferent towards the plight..

Well.. one thing that could be done is not to have so many hospitals on buys roads like Mount roads.. maybe should relocate them to some place else... or maybe have flying ambulances soon..!

@Priya

Lane discipline?? ROFL big time.
We already have one and NO one follows it !!! NO ONE !!

I think we should soon invent the Teleporter Ray as seen in "Star Trek"... It will surely ease a lot of pressure off traveling..

Step 1: Stand in the port at Point A
Step 2: Press Big Green Button
Step 3: Appear at Point B within 3.25 seconds, along with a colorful display of swirling lights.

Warning: Do not teleport immediately after eating..!!

:P

Dude, how could you forget the 'Flu' powder?
But yeah, you might end up in someother place just because of the wrong pronunciation. Ah well.

Aslam said...

@visu

Yep.. that risk is always there with flu powder.. someone wud want to go to Koyambedu Market.. but will then reach Coimbatore market due to incorrect pronunciation... why take the risk..??
Instead u are much better off with a Nimbus 2000, which may be a bit slower... ;)

750 bertie bott beans or a place in the slytherin team for a Nimbus 2000!! Dammit... Ah well, forget it... :P
