“If it takes more than 3-5 seconds to go down your block it’s not hatzolah.”
This is probably true, however, I believe a contributing factor is that “our community”, for the most part, moves out of the way when hatzalah comes their way, sadly this is not true when it is “of of their” ambulances. Dont take my word for it. stick your fingers in your ears and open your eyes and watch what happens.
