“Do police officers have jurisdiction in the freeways?”

Depends, the judge has ruled the fire dept can determine what space they need to make an accident scene safe.

Pretty stupid to pull a guy away from the accident victim because he wasn’t moving the firetruck.

Maybe so in this case, but I can’t tell you how many times I come across an accident scene, after 1+ hour in traffic only to see extra lanes blocked off for no reason. I understand the desire to make the scene safe, but there are times I can’t help but wonder if there is ego involved.
