While sitting in a parking lot, I just watched a fire truck scream by on the road in front of me. I heared it comming from way up the street. The distracted drivers in the busy traffic did not hear and respond immediately, but eventually they parted a bit disjointedly as the fire truck weaved its way through them. It passed by and then, even before the siren scream had hardly begun to fade, the cars moved back into their lane and continued their busy pace. Within 30 seconds, traffic was moving at business-as-usual speed.
Still, the fire truck was going somewhere in a hurry. Somewhere down the road is a person in trouble. I wonder who it is?
