Non professional blue light ambulance driving
Posted: Tue Feb 06, 2007 3:11 pm
My friend's in the St John's ambulance voluteer type people, and they've told me they're going to be trained to drive an ambulance and do blue light runs?!
Sounds rather shocking to me, can't imagine they'd let non professional ambulance drivers undertake advanced and potentially very dangerous driving... would they?!
So, is this rubbish, and if it isn't, anyone know what level of training they're given? I'm assuming (hoping?) it's rather advanced, and I might be up for a bit of free/cheap advanced instruction
Cheers,
Tom.
