Emergency Respond Time: Orlando Metro? (Sanford: living, cars, station)

[IAm_FloridaBorn]

I have not lived all over CF but I can definitely speak for the city of Orlando.

As we know, I-4 is a road of traffic patterns. Well this morning between 8:10 and 8:15 a 3 car accident (Very Minor in Damages, One person and vehicle was Injured) occured right between church street and Jefferson or better yet right in Front of the Old Lynx Central Station (Where the new Fire Station is now) on I-4, and right in front of OPD headquarters.

So I sat there and watched from the Amway Center as traffic really got bad, no one stopped to help, but again it was very minor , only required an ambulance, and one MAYBE two patrol cars maybe.

Anyway at approx 8:23 an ambulance was heading to the scene on hughey. Well it turned east on South Street, made an illegal uturn and got on I-4 eastbound passing the accident. Yes seriously passing the accident.

Then at 8:30 -8:35 ish a fire truck arrived to the scene from entrance prior to the south street entrance, although that fire truck left the Fire Station five to 7 minutes before along with the ambulance.
Eventually around 8:37-8:40 ish the Ambulance finally arrived there. A full 25 mInutes or so later. Then 3 minutes later the first police unit arrived after watching 5 or 6 patrol cars leave OPD headquarters on Hughey not even heading to the accident along with watching 3 OCSO patrol cars drive by on I-4.

It made me sick to the stomach to see such a delayed response because as I said one person did have to g to the hospitals.
I'm just wondering, in Central Florida as a whole how have you all experienced emergency response times?
I know the whole Trayvon Martin thing in Sanford was a good example of delayed response but it wasn't an emergency at the time so I don't consider that a delayed EMERGENCY response. But Is it like that just in Orlando? Was it just today that I noticed this ? It really creeped me out. I know living where I live now no matter what OCSO will be here no later than 8 minutes FLAT. Just wondering how it is across the Orlando Metro.

I'm just guessing that the 911 call said that everything was fine and the cars were just banged up. Maybe someone bonked their head but was conscious or similar. That one wreck was not the only thing going on at the time. The ambulance was going where they were told to go by the dispatcher. Sending them where they were needed most.

A sample size of one.

Or maybe you're right! Trayvon! Trayvon!
