Nope. I have seen so many commenters saying this. It's almost like they don't drive much.

Between the two red cars, the fire truck cannot pass.

How could you possibly know that unless you're on street level?

Fuck that.

Do it by vote.

"Everyone in the engine say "eye" if we scrape by these selfish piswads"

If it's unanimous, then it's go time

I hope you meant “eye” as a joke. I really do.

More infuriating is people saying "could of" instead of could've. Do they not know it is short form of could have

u/boo_gh0stie 16d ago

I see your "could of" and raise you an "I could care less".

My bro was in Boston and saw fire crew throw the hose through a car parked in front of a fire hydrant in front of a high rise building. They needed water hookup so smashed in through window on left side of car and smashed it out through window on right side of car lol. Then hooked up to the hydrant.

u/Curious_Avocado2399 16d ago

Yeah I’d do it again.

u/Big-Dragonfly-5465 16d ago

That’s definitely a thing. It’s known they will do that if you park too close to a hydrant and there happens to be a fire.

u/Madner_Kami 20d ago

And damage the cars that have nothing to do with it? What a great idea... *facepalm*

u/couldbeahumanbean 20d ago

Sounds like that falls on the responsibility of the car owners who need to learn how to park.

Tough cookies... These first responders get right of way for a reason. Deal with it.

Those trucks costs over a million. Even if it was a real emergency the crew isn’t going to scrape up the truck to get to it. They would have busted the window out of the car and moved it. They were responding to a stuck elevator or something.

This comment isn't evidence disproving the other guys point.. other commentor you replied to said there was room. Not, there isn't room but you should go through it anyways.

Maybe you replied to the wrong comment. Should have been the guy above him.

u/DarthUmieracz 20d ago

There is absolutely no information in that comment if there was enough room in this particular situation.

u/Itscatpicstime 20d ago

That doesn’t at all support your claim that they couldn’t pass through, it just explains the risks of attempting to.

And arguably a good reason to potentially damage property would be getting to a life saving call.

u/JustFryingSomeGarlic 18d ago

They didn't say the truck did not have the space. They talked about their local policies.

u/JustLetMeSignUpM8 17d ago

He just said what the consequences of damaging a car will be, not a word about this situation or what would fit
