i say up the charge even more than 200.. 200 is just for the ambulance.. but if the fire truck and police come, they should get charged more.

They do.
Ambulance is $240 if deemed not required.
Fire truck is another like $500 per truck I think.
I don't think there's additional fees for cops though.

So I was going lights and sirens across Eglinton and came up on Yonge. It's rush hour with lots of cars and pedestrians.
Everyone (cars and people alike) in all directions stop and I start to proceed through... sirens still going.

A person starts walking across and keeps going as I'm blaring on the air horn and switching the the phaser.
Upon closer look, it appears she might very well have Downs Syndrome.

Was I an ass to be so aggressive?

Nope, I don't know if you have a speaker, but I'd tell them to "GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY" and do a burn out.

There's three different siren sounds we can make. Yelp, which is a slower siren.
Wail is about double the rate of "yelp" and phaser runs at the highest cycle of them all... about 5 times a second. It sounds really urgent. I only use when it's super urgent or if someone is an idiot in front of me.
I'm sure I have the sound recorded somewhere.

Yes, the high cycling one (at 5 seconds in.)
You can hear all three siren tones in that clip.



I miss RainX when storms like this happen and I don't put it on the ambulance! Wipers going full tilt too.


This is one of the funniest store names I've seen in TO...

That is 41 Station. It used to be a gas station and was converted to an EMS station back in the day. But in the end, it was a shit hole and the city gave us budget to tear it down and build a proper station there... under construction now.

Road trip. The weather is still good, pack up and head south, or west, or southwest.

You can see a lot of North America in a month.

Interesting little article/video.

Broken elbow lady didn't need an ambulance, and rightfully should have been driven; but it does show the political and medical climate of EMS (in Detroit...) However, it's still quite reflective of EMS systems everywhere, including Toronto and other regions.

Speaking of hospitals, I was at the ER at East York general today at 2 am, I had to register the person that I drove and they asked me what religion they were?

I was like WTF??????????

The fvcking up healtcare system is enough motivation for me to try and be as healthy as possible, those places make me cringe.

^we gotta ask because of care, say for example if someone is jewish and they don't want a blood transfusion and they get one or if some other religion says that you can't get cirtin care, the hospital can be in deep legal shit.

I got a friend who works at the emergency in a hospital in montréal. It's also an english hospital therefor they get more foreigners (compared to other hospital). They can't refuse care to people who don't have provincial health card (regardless of province) and they probably get scammed by 1/2 patient who don't have a card/insurance/will to pay. They have the choice of either paying right away or sending the bill to collection (ie: false address). Shit tons of americans go there as well. They ask for ID but still provide care if no ID is shown.

I would like to know... why is it I'm going in the opposite lanes of traffic (due to jammed up traffic and an island between the two directions... so opposing traffic is the best option) and I'm running lights and sirens; and I come up to an intersection where cars are turning into me (and majority of the cars finally see me and pull over)... but when I get to the pedestrian crossing, a guy in a van makes the turn, sees me and then proceeds to give me the "what the fuck are you doing" gesture and flips me off as though I was doing something wrong?

for people like that, I will agree with calling a nearby cop car to pull him over for a talking.

Shit like that pisses me off when I see it, I would have some serious road rage issues if ever I drove an ambulance.

I would love to see dash cams installed. Then send tickets to drivers who don't pull over or just come to a dead stop in the left lane with a firetruck behind them.
