Important mention

Roadways are an essential part of our urban infrastructure, acting as the veins and arteries that transport people, goods, and services from one place to another. Obstructing these pathways, intentionally or not, can lead to dire consequences. This is particularly true for emergency vehicles, such as ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars, that rely on clear and accessible roads to swiftly reach those in need. Any delay, no matter how minor it might seem, can make the difference between life and death.
