And in other news...

He said buses from Clark County, Nev. and Army Blackhawk helicopters from Fort Irwin, Calif., arrived to help ambulances and medical helicopters transport the injured. About 44 passengers were taken to seven nearby hospitals including in Las Vegas, Cortinas said late Sunday.

One tour bus hit another one on the I15 outside of Baker, California - that's the main artery in and out of Las Vegas.

I seem to recall posting something here sometime ago about the state of emergency services on that road - i.e., the total LACK of them. Which trauma center did they evacuate to? Eight to Loma Linda, six to Las Vegas. At least five other hospitals took patients.

Take a good look at the map next time you think you want to drive the road to Las Vegas from Los Angeles. Note the entire LACK of anything between here and there, except for enlarged exits containing a gas station or two.

Nice the Army had helicopters. Sheesh.

You want me to go to Las Vegas? No.

EDIT: I'm sorry, I misread the article. ALL the patients went to Loma Linda's trauma center - eight of them, six of them critical.


Baker to Loma Linda


Baker to Las Vegas

CHEAP ASS BASTARDS!!!

EDIT PART DEUX: I'm sure I can see these images because I cached them when I generated them using Mapquest. If you can't see them, just go to Mapquest and check the driving directions in both examples. It'll make your blood boil. Honest.
