Somebody told me that a police car or firetruck or ambulance is only classed as an emergency vehicle if it has its lights and sirens going. So legally the driver of the vehicle can only break the speed limit or run a red light when the lights and sirens are on. If they are not on then the driver must obey all the road rules the same as me.

Can somebody please tell me if this is true becuase i see plenty of police cars in this area exceeding the speed limit without their lights and sirens on?

I'm in Australia by the way, the rules may differ around the world, but i'm interested to hear how it is where you are.

Thanks heaps wise Y!A people..

Once a child molester is out of prison, he must stay a certain distance from children. A pregnant woman is carrying a CHILD, so is he in violation if he goes near her?

That a perspective renter has a right to be in this country? Like a temporary work visa or some other paperwork that demonstrates a persons right to be in the country? I think this may work and cut down on the number of illegals in this country, what say you?

My friend and I were having a debate about this. He thinks even though O.J. was aquitted he could be tried for the same crime in a federal court. But I think you can only be tried in a federal court if the crime is against the government. I don't really care if I'm wrong, I'd just like to know if he can or can't be. I'm guessing if he could be it would have been done by now!

Libs ostensibly find fault with every aspect of life in America, yet they do not leave. Unlike many of the nations libs do not criticize (Cuba, North Korea, Iran) the United States does not prevent our citizens from leaving for any reason. Yet liberals refuse to leave, preferring instead to remain and find fault with nearly every aspect of life in America. Why do libs stay, if life here is so horrible for them?

Don't give an answer like "deport them" because obviously that's not going to happen. There's no way this government is going to pay for there deportation. There needs to be a reasonable solution because no matter how much you say to deport them it's not going to happen.

Alot of us can talk "tough" when it comes to war. But when your in the military; its a whole different ball game! I was in the military under Clinton. Though I seen no combat, I got a pretty good idea of what it might be like. Some of you may be in the military now. If you are; do you support the president's policies? We can sit back here and shoot the **** while are brothers and sister die! Pretty sad huh? I could not imagine the suffering that alot of these service men and women have endured. My family has chosen to write the soldiers, send them gifts, and ect. and they really appreciate it! We send them all kinds of stuff.

Is the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) available to only authorized law enforcers, or is it available to the general public. I'm guessing just authorized persons, but I can see no reason why it would not be available to everyone.

Since some Americans think that Thanksgiving is a racial or patriotic day, should it be canceled since someone might get killed if they are celebrating Thanksgiving to. Shouldn't Thanksgiving be for everyone, invite everyone to enjoy the holiday. Even the illegals.

How many think that instead of the draft, all males and females, when completed high school, went to Basic and Advanced training, and after that, had 4 years of service sorta like the guard or reserves (2 weekends a month), In return, the 1st two years of college is free. Think about it, we have a ready avaible defense force, and no more defaulted student loans. Plus, there would be no reason that a associate degree could not be the average level of schooling. Raising our educational level in the process.?

Why do people keep argueing if its a human life?

I don’t care if your for or against abortion but if you passed any health or biology classes you know that when the sperm and egg get together, there are now 46 chromosomes... the same exact 46 chromosomes that make us human and nothing else.

I know you can make the argument of how developed it is every couple of weeks but the whole is it human, a parasite, or same as cancer cells thing is getting annoying bc it is a obviously a human, its just at a young stage.

by cities hassling hard working immigrants dont they realize that in the long run it would actually help them, immigrants would centralize in cities that offer santuary and take those jobs with them, it would also lead to them building stronger latin communities, with politicians that cater to theyr communities, one way or the other theyr here to stay, so dont be surprised when your son or daughter bring one home hahahahaha

We should find a way to just live with them. We should stop sending our jobs to China. We should make more corporations to give more job places to our people and the illegals. It is better to make peace with them instead of getting a bullet blasted into our heads.
