Don't Put That There!

A few weeks ago I was in the car with dad, waiting patiently for red to go green at some random signal in Madurai. That's when I heard the wailing siren of an ambulance somewhere behind us.

After offering a silent prayer, I listened as it came closer. It stopped right next to us, behind a truck that definitely wasn't going to move until the signal changed. I took a glance at the ambulance out my window...

That's when I noticed the writing on its side.

So and so Hospital,
Blah blah blah,
Madurai -###
Call 044XXXXXXXX for Ambulance.

FREEZER BOX AND MORGUE FACILITIES AVAILABLE.
DIAL 044XXXXXXXX.

The person who put that there needs to go find a heart, and get a life. Seriously.
