Yesterday there was an incident that received a great deal of resonance in c networks. In the Lefortovo tunnel, the driver of Mercedes-Benz specifically did not miss an ambulance. A video of the incident was uploaded by the driver of the ambulance.
The black car did not pay attention to either the siren or the sound signals. As the ambulance driver said, Mercedes-Benz did not allow himself to overtake on the right side either.
There have already been similar cases before, when drivers did not let the ambulance in the tunnels even with special signals turned on and explained this as follows:
On September 28 last year in Moscow, the driver did not miss the ambulance on the Third Transport Ring
“… The driver, who did not want to miss the ambulance, stopped in the tunnel and went out to talk with the driver of the special transport. On the record taken from the ambulance, you can see how the car that was driving in front stopped, the driver got out of it.
The man went to the driver of the reanimobile and said that he could not miss it, despite the special signal. He said that he would not break the continuum in order to skip the ambulance.
In response to this, the ambulance driver said that he was obliged to do this. According to media reports, doctors brought an elderly man with bleeding suddenly to the hospital. “
So should the driver give way to the ambulance in the tunnel ?! Or not?! Although they tightened their responsibility for not letting ambulances on the road to patients and obstructing the work of doctors. The relevant law entered into force on August 6. For refusing to give way to an ambulance, the driver can be fined five thousand rubles or deprived of their rights for up to a year.
