Hold that emergency
Here’s something not often seen—an ambulance, lights and siren on, stopped cold by the crush of traffic. There are two vehicles immediately in front of the ambulance blocking its way. Those vehicles could not go left because Maple Street is one-way. They could not go straight both because of a red light and because of oncoming traffic (that school bus, for instance). They could not go right because it’s an illegal turn and because the cars to their right might start moving at any time. Fortunately, the hold-up was short—the light changed as this shot was snapped.
