[HFDlist] Close call

[Jack Chandler]

I was driving ambulance two to a call at the State Police barracks 
Tuesday afternoon. As I passed through the intersection of Main and 
Highland traffic appeared to have stopped and I was just about to start 
up again when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. Coming up 
Reservoir Street a small green car with the operator on a cell phone 
passed the stopped traffic on the left and proceeded through the 
intersection. She was so focused on where she was going i don't think 
she noticed me even though I had the siren on and was about twenty feet 
from her!

Be careful out there and use lots of caution!!
