  1. were you following someone in an ambulance?

    if you were it would be hard to keep up!

    they have to go as fast as they can to get the injured person to hospital in time.seconds count.


  2. Uh... because of 2 reasons. 1, they may have a person IN the ambulance that is very sick or near to death or 2, they need to rush TO someone that is very sick or near to death. Sorry but thats a silly question as well.

  3. becouse i'm in side

  4. to get away from you, you weirdo

  5. Keep trying.Then you won't have to.

  6. If Tinkerbell was following me, I'd drive faster too. Don't want to get hit with the wand.

  7. R u serious? All the ambulances I see really struggle to get any pace because they are so heavy, even with th Blues & two's I still cruise past them

  8. Because you drive so slow.

  9. Because they can!!

  10. Run faster then!

  11. I'd give up ambulance chasing then and do criminal law instead!

  12. Question 1.

    With the high number of serious traffic accidents and emergencies it would seem that the reason that they drive fast is to get the injured people to the hospital.

    Question 2.

    Following an ambulance too close carries a fine of a minimum of $500.00.

  13. run away from you

  14. I agree with smileygi. And if they are going slow with their blue lights on, the patient is so ill they dare not throw the vehicle around...........

  15. im not sure you are meant to be keeping up with them, maybe thats why they drive so fast, they think you are following them.

  16. Ambulance drivers only drive fast in an emergency.

  17. You are not suppose to try and keep up with ambulances. For 1 that is very dangerous. and for 2 if a cop sees you doing that you will get a nice ticket. Ambulances driver faster when they have more critical patients in the back. They are trained drivers for emergency driving.

  18. because they escape prosecution even if they kill someone

  19. im guesing your a lawyer
