I hate Rubber-Necks what are Rubber-Necks Rubber-Necks are On-Lookers who want to see whats going on
the ones who drive by a Car Wreck or a Major fire and pull over on the side of the road Blocking the Fire Departments from getting By and getting in the damn way in the long run when they Know that the Fires moving right for them the ones who show up at a call just to see whats going on looking at the scene and not whats in front of them
there head turned as they go by in a 360 degree angle
like a Owl.
see in New York they put up road block Beams to mark off the area to keep By-standers form getting in the way You know that Shit wouldn't work here in North Texas People here would just Go around it like one time are Department was call out for a Wreck 5 miles west of town it was a bad wreck are Police officers had Blocked off the Crash site and we had to call in the Air Chopper EVAC well are Chopper EVAC had just landed and there Medical team were helping Package patients
traffic is backed up almost one mile in a hafe when we look up and here comes a Pickup and drives right threw the scene around the Air EVAC Chopper and right under the Choppers Blades
all most running over the Sheriff himself
the sheriff walks over to him stops him and ask him What in the hell are you doing driving threw here you don't see the red White lights flashing on the all of these Fire Trucks and makes him get out of the Truck and then slaps the Hand Cuffs on him a search of his truck leads police to find a 22 cal.
Hand Gun that they found that was stuck under the front seat.

We had a delivery truck run over two cones taking pictures with his cell phone. Trooper stopped him and advised him that those cones could have been firefighters. He took the drivers phone, erased the pictures and sent him on.

Also have proberms with them stopping to look and almost get rear ended, and the idiots who speed through. We stopped one and six of us went off on him, including the chief.

I am almost rear ended a person trying to take pictures of a MVI. So, I laid on the horn and they made gestures and waved their phone at me, as if I should have known they were allowed to take pictures.

Directing traffic slowly around an accident scene (cars off the side of the road obviously smashed and crashed) and you will get a couple of people ask what happened. My standard reply is there was a submarine crash and before they say anything else I ask them to please keep moving
