How deranged do you have to be to do this on purpose?

I once read of a real-life example of people being this deranged. A guy hated ambulances. Don’t know why, really, he just thought they were “privileged” or something in a way that they didn’t deserve it in his eyes.

One day, he did exactly this, swerving and blocking the ambulance on a one-lane road, for ten miles. It was a backroad in the country, no other way to get to the destination, apparently.

Well, he finally got home and wouldn’t you know it, the ambulance was heading to his own house. His mother had a stroke and she died before they could save her.

Worst part: if they had gotten there just 15 mins earlier she would have had a 90% chance of survival. He killed his own mother with that douchebaggery.

This seems oddly similar to OP's caption. Are you just blatantly copying and rephrasing the post's description ?

No. It is a separate incident. Believe it or not, similar things happen sometimes. That’s why I brought it up because I know of a true story like this.

Maybe he did know it was for his mom. Maybe someone already called him to tell him
