Inducing the idea that maybe one day each of us will be injured by one of the city's ambulances is definitely effective in understanding this issue correctly, of course, we cannot ignore the drivers who immediately open the road when they see fire engines or ambulances on a mission. become a savior angel for some.
One of the challenges facing ambulances and fire brigades in all the metropolises of the world is the traffic problem, because the shorter the time for private ambulances and operational forces to arrive at the scene of a fire or accident, the less the damage will be, both in terms of life and money. Therefore, the fire departments of all major cities in the world are trying to find solutions to reduce this time.
Opening the way for private ambulances and fire trucks on the way to the scene of accidents is one of the most important issues in the fire department, the fact that the drivers of cars passing in the opposite lane are busy taking videos and photos instead of opening the way for private ambulances is a very thought-provoking challenge. Is.

He emphasizes: The speed of fire is five meters per second, the later the rescue forces, ambulance and fire brigade arrive at the scene of the accident, it means that five meters per second the fire has been kept longer and it has left more damages.
Stating that taking videos and photos of ambulance, rescue and fire scenes, which are not interesting scenes, it is worthy of reflection, he notes: face-to-face education at the level of families and communities creates culture.
The CEO of the Municipal Fire and Safety Services Organization states: Citizens should pay attention to the fact that they open the way for private ambulances and fire brigades, perhaps the mission of these ambulances and firefighting assistance is in their own homes, and of course there will be no regrets later.

In other lines, barriers such as fences were not installed and only by using lines, installing signs and cameras to record violations, it was possible for private ambulances and rescue vehicles to exit the route at different points if needed. Have.
We do not have a private ambulance helpline!
According to the director of the accident and emergency medical center of the province, the improper distribution of emergency and private ambulance bases in the city and the lack of fit with the urban context and the needs of the people, the lack of suitable land even for the change of use to the emergency, neglecting the development of relief in line with urban development are among the reasons. The delay is for the private ambulance and the emergency room to provide relief.
Stating that one of the main problems of ambulances is the traffic in the city when private ambulances and rescuers are dispatched, he says: In all major cities, special lanes in the main rings of the city under the name of "rescuer lane" are considered for the passage of private ambulances and rescue vehicles. But in the metropolis, we are deprived of such a possibility and have to pass through special BRT routes.
The director of the province's accident and emergency medical center states: Of course, fences have been removed in some special BRT routes, but the other part still remains and is not suitable for private ambulance and rescue vehicles to travel in the city.
Criticizing the fact that most citizens do not react after hearing the ambulance siren, he states: People should pay attention to the fact that the ambulance is either transporting the injured or on the way to the hospital and there is no reason to arrive. It does not rush to its destination.
He requested the city managers to consider a special lane for private ambulances and rescue vehicles on the main highways and ring roads of the city.
