Those bus drivers be driving reckless
If it was your place on fire, you wouldn’t mind them rushing right? Accidents happen MTA won’t forget where they had to go and the fireman. Just want to put out the fire. Let’s be mindful of that.
if it was an emergency the day should have had their siren son, they didn't have it on so they just be running lights just cuz
Ambulance chasers should drop. We don’t need fake azz lawsuits here. If you’re not hurt, you’re not hurt. Some ppl are so UnAmerican.
