yesterday i saw, an ambulance waiting behind a line of cars for traffic signal clearance. Here in chennai in rush hours we have to wait around 3 minutes for signal to come. What to do.., it had to wait.
I remember in US I saw a similar situation.. an ambulance came, but it did not have signal and it was waiting behind a line of cars. But there I saw a nice protocol, followed by all. Once the horn from ambulance was heard vehicles from all directions waited in the signal... and the vehicle just in front of the ambulance alerted the vehicle in front by horning.. all the vehicles in that lane did that and that lane alone moved...
Traffic signals were secondary during that time,, ambulance was the highest priority.. Soon after the ambulance went, traffic lights became the master again..
Hope we show the same sense here also..

Nice one.
We must realize the good aspects and try to own up those good practices followed elsewhere - sooner or later. Let the minset change and society grow up for the betterment of its people.
