I recently had to take my dad to hospital and when we go there there was no one at the ER! Had anyone had a heart attack they would have surely died... when someone did finally appear they looked irritated that we disturbed them! Hamdillah everything was ok with my dad, but just asking what if something was terribly wrong or what if someone got into a really bad accident in the middle of the night.. it just gets my blood boiling.. i have no faith in any of the emergency services..

It is always frustrating and a test of patience to be engaged in an accident. However I think one thing was "lucky" for you which is the fact that the man who was hit is an Egyptian. If he was a Jordanian..oh my God you will have to pay for every health problem he has or fabricates in the next 10 years and be subject to the blackmail of his family. The worst ever thing in Jordan is to hit a person. It is a real disaster. The most important thing is that everyone is safe and not hurt.

So why don't the people who stopped to gawk at the accident take off after the galab? At least get his license? God certainly protected you all, thankfully no one was hurt.

I really feel your pain man and these situations do get frustrating and infuriating too. We had our car get hit while parked outside our house twice and the second time we asked the police officer if they would install a bump in the road because cars always go fast there when it's such a small road and that was like the 5th accidant overall that happens there in just two years. You know what the guy said? He said "I've been in charge of this area for 5 years, and this is the first accidant that happens on this road".

I know what you mean, these guys always think they are right, and even if proven wrong, they are not.. grow up for gods sake, and like you said their friends always back them up I dont get it, will you lose any part of your pride if you admit your wrong, actually, it would break the ice between two people and a smile will crack on both of their faces... A hit and run happened a couple of months ago with my sisters car at night... my brother and I go out to check it out in the moment and they have already escaped.. a cop car drives by and they tell us to go to the makfar, which is at the corner... we go to report it and the traffic cop tells us to come back in the morning, so we go back home, to find the police car driving by once more, they tell us that the guy in the makfar is wrong and that we should go back and get a kroka... we go back but he would change his mind... the next day we phone for one to come and then he said that you cant open a kroka for one car only... I feel like each person has his on rules... But alas, it is a hopeless case.. you just cant argue with them hope every thing works with you Il 7amdelah 3ala slamithoum…
