This ambulance driver must have regretted his speeding

An ambulance driver was caught speeding while not transporting any patients. We tell you everything.

Speeding can happen to anyone, but remember that it is obviously strictly prohibited by law. However, there are some small exceptions, only for certain vehicles that are called “priority”. These include fire trucks, police and some ambulances. But be careful, because these professionals are not above the law and must still respect certain basic rules. Because to have the right to drive faster than the limit, there must be a real emergency. And that must be seen, thanks to the use of the siren and the flashing light.

The reflection continues on the project of no longer deducting points from the driving license of motorists guilty of minor speeding! https://t.co/w2bQX7OYx4

A great excess

But this is not enough. Because for transport to be urgent, there must still be a patient on board the vehicle, at least as far as ambulances are concerned. This may seem obvious but it is obviously not for everyone! This is proven by the story we are telling you today. This takes place in Indre, last weekend. The gendarmes are in the process of carrying out speed checks, when they see an ambulance tumbling down, driving too fast, but with its flashing lights. This one is flashed at 170 km/h instead of 130 km/h.

Oops…

But the police are seized with a doubt and intercept it. And the latter is quickly confirmed. Indeed, the emergency vehicle does not in fact transport the slightest patient! The driver apparently wanted to deceive the police to drive fast without being worried, but was finally fined for his speeding, but not only. Indeed, he also received a fine for having used his warning lights without justification. The soldiers also recall that ambulances are required to strictly respect the highway code“, except in certain exceptions.
