I don't think doctors would slave for 12-14 years, just so they can get the privilege of being exempted from color coding. having said that, one has to exercise responsibility, and not abuse this so-called "privilege". Besides, there are other ways to break traffic rules, i.e. not stopping at stop signs, not stopping at pedestrian crossings, breaking red lights etc. I'm sure, many of us are guilty of this. I've had trauma cases that were a result of traffic violations, and I had to attend to them during my coding days.
my thoughts exactly! am not against on this privelege given to doctors and besides how many cases we sighted daily? IMHO, hindi ko na iisipin pa na naisahan ako kung sakali man may ma-encounter ako. tanong ko lang po, kahit sinong doctor po ba pwedeng mag-avail sa privelege na ito or just those specialists?
