Ada hal yg mengenaskan disini yg saya rasakan. Profesi emergency team kurang mendapat respect disemua golongan. Kesadaran masyarakat ttg penghargaan profesi masih dalam batas " mengetahui". Lihatlah pejabat & rombongan Harley dgn enaknya melenggang menerobos lampu merah & polisi dgn sigap mengatur kelancarannya. Sedangkan bila Ambulance & Fire Truck over speed, menerobos lampu merah & melanggar rambu2 lalin pada saat emergency akan menjadi polemik bila terjadi accident. Apakah yg harus kita lakukan? sedangkan tidak adanya kejelasan hukum yg kuat di belakang kita sebagai back up. Apakah ada peraturan yg baku mengatur ttg hal itu? apakah ada sosialisasi ttg peraturan itu? Kita cuman me raba2 pembenaran dari kesalahan yg terjadi. Saya yakin kasus ini akan hilang seiring waktu tanpa adanya solusi dari regulator. Tapi hal ini bakal terjadi lagi, entah kapan & dgn kasus yg lebih kompleks bila tentang ini dibiarkan begitu saja. Kita bekerja berpacu dgn waktu utk menyelamatkan. Tapi Nyawa dan keselamatan kita dibatas tipis kesadaran kita utk menjaga keselamatan diri kita sendiri.
Selamatkan diri anda. Bekerja dgn aman & tetap optimis, Joko Wardoyo TJBPS Fire Commander --- Pada Sel, 24/6/08, wocco_ksr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> menulis: Dari: wocco_ksr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Topik: [indofirstaid.com]: Re: Artikel mengenai kecelakaan Ambulance Kepada: [email protected] Tanggal: Selasa, 24 Juni, 2008, 11:33 PM saya setuju dan membenarkan bahwa sebenarnya ambulance dan PMK juga harus memperhatikan rambu-rambu lalu lintas KECUALI JIKA DIDAMPINGI PIHAK KEPOLISIAN OR DLLAJR. karena bagaimana seorang penolong bisa menolong atau mencapai tujuannya jika kegiatannya merugikan orang lain (baik pengguna jalan raya maupun pasien). untuk faktor emergensi saya rasa bukan sesuatu hal yang bisa membuat hak orang lain terlanggar (menggunakan Jalan Umum), tetapi dalam kebiasaanya kita hanya memberi toleransi yang besar kepada orang yang mengalami emergensi, tetapi dalam pikiran kita tercetak sebuah keharusan bahwa AMBULANCE or DAMKAR melanggar rambu lalu lintas. jadi kesimpulannya mungkin kita hanya perlu meningkatkan KOORDINASI dengan pihak kepolisian dan DLLAJR. dan setau saya berdasarkan referensi yang pernah saya dapat, seorang sopir ambulance hanya diperbolehkan membawa ambulance dg kecepatan 60Km/Jam (Jika ada Pasien) Dalam Kota. Tetapi untuk luar kota (Jarak Jauh Max 80 Km/Jam. itu pun tergantung bagus tidaknya jalan. Kesimpulannya, Saya Rasa Jika Sopir Ambulance Melanggar Lampu Merah, Maka otomatis sopirlah yang salah...
