It depends on how recently an episode of MASH was run.
Sometimes if a war movie is on and a lead character screams "MEDIC" that can have an effect too, but it really comes down to the movie.

Is this guy the worst cop ever? If he wanted to arrest the driver so bad, why didn't he take him down at the hospital? Its not like the guy went missing. Nothing about this story makes sense.

A few months ago when a similar situation took place with an NFL player, the player was cuffed at the entrance to the hospital. I don't get it.

Not that I condone the cops actions, but as far as the husband showing up at the jail, while it sounds good, it doesnt really work that way. All the crap they filed on him would take at least a day to get into the system to even show a warrant for him whenhe showed up, IF thats how they handled matters there. Arresting him at the hospital was in rather poor taste tho, since they could have called him and told him to present himself at the station for arrest.

Typical for cops.........Get all mad when a citizen tries to break traffic laws as much as they themselves do.

"Only officers know how to drive fast".......yeah right.

Breaking the law is breaking the law. he knew what he was doing. Had he ran one of those two lights and hit a van full of kids this would be a different story. The EMS could have just as easily treated her at his house as they could have in the ER, if not sooner when triage and assessment is factored in.

She wasnt bleeding or in immediate danger of loosing her life. She could have been given a blood thinner and anti-coagulant even easier via the paramedics. Not to mention that the symptoms of stroke can easily be confused with heat stroke or fatigue, two things a chemo patient would be easily susceptible too.

Somebody get Tommy in here for his 2c though, im just going off what i know from my facility and its red tape bullshit with the ER.
