Never rush & always use your own people

[Ga-Lin 86]

The vid (from a phone) is of a motorcycle race fatality. While being carried off the track was dropped by racing staff. If you look carefully (in full screen) you can see the Pt's. leg hanging off the scoop, its hard to tell if the fall was caused by a slip on the grass while running or tripping over the dangling leg.(also from a still that I saw it appears that the scoop might have split.) Only one of those caring the scoop is Amb crew, others are track officials. But the crew (rightfully so) gets the bad press. Motto: never rush & always use your own people (or other emergency responders) who will listen to directions. (There is alwasy someone with a camara phone) This did not occur in the good old U.S. of A.
