He wanted a sandwich.

A Surrey driver sped through an emergency scene and clipped a firefighter who was on his way to try and save an elderly woman’s life.

Why?

Apparently he was really hungry.

You heard me right.

He was hankering for a hoagie.

Firefighters put themselves in harm’s way every time they put on their uniform. They’re the brave heroes who rush to our aid when we’ve been injured, the guys who walk into infernos to save our lives.

One thing they shouldn’t have to worry about is getting hit by negligent drivers.

Sadly, it’s not the first time a firefighter has been hit by an irresponsible driver. And it probably won’t be the last.

Here’s the thing. If guys and girls in uniform aren’t safe when they’re on the streets what hope is there for the rest of us?

Because if a driver isn’t going to slow down for a firefighter…. what are the odds they’ll give your average pedestrian a second thought.

It’s clear that a lot of drivers aren’t going to step up in order to keep our streets safe.

That’s why I’ve put together a FREE pedestrian safety manual.

Read it. What you learn could save you a lifetime of heartache.
