Let me set the record straight

1. the car was not a marked diplomate vehicle

2. st the time we didn't stop for traffic due increased likely hood of being a target

3.the us vehicle had a siren THAT IT USED to signal it was coming

4. the only weapons pointed at the car belonged to gunners who must aim at their sector of fire

5. the convoy was only wrong for not providing an accident assistance card to the personnel as long as TIME and SURCUMSTANCES PERMIT

I did hear some ware that military vehicles can’t stop in busy places or something because of the threat of getting blocked in and ambushed. I did see some footage of American soldiers going down a busy road in Iraq getting quite creative trying to avoid stopping its pretty funny tbh, but one of the cars in the video could easily have been the Russians car. /watch?v=Yco1deXOzN8
