     A NSW Ambulance paramedic has shared important advice for drivers on how to respond when an ambulance approaches with its lights flashing and siren blaring. 

    Paul Michael posted the helpful tips in a video posted to social media. 

    ‘Now I think it’s really important to teach you guys what to do and what not to do when one of these babies (pointing to to the ambulance) approach you with the lights and sirens flashing.’

    Paul said he has seen a lot of people panic and his simple advice is: ‘Chill. There’s absolutely no need to panic.’

    He advised three things drivers shouldn’t do when an ambulance approaches.

    ‘Number one, do not, and I repeat, do not slam on the brakes and just stop the car. That’s possibly one of the worst things you could do,’ he said.

    ‘Two, do not block all the lanes at the intersection. Okay, if you see us coming and there’s a lane free, don’t go into it, because we’re going to use it to go through the intersection’.

    Paul then revealed his most important tip.

    ‘Number three is, do not go out into the intersection. Okay, we might be behind you. Our lights are on and the intersection is blocked because you’re like in the front lane or whatever.’

    Paul advised drivers not to sneak out into the intersection and said if there’s a red light camera they will get booked.

    ‘You’re putting yourselves in danger,’ he added.

    Paul ended his video with some very helpful tips. 

    ‘So simply relax, calm down and move to the left.

    ‘Simply move to the left. That’s all we want. A cute little left merge. Don’t panic.’

    Aussies praised Paul for sharing his tips. 

    ‘A much needed video, very clear and sweet,’ wrote one.

    ‘Thankyou. This actually helps. I was always told, you have to run a red light if there is an ambulance behind you,’ another wrote.

    ‘Hahah driving an ambulance is so frustrating! People do some dumb things when they see you, or there’s the people that don’t see or hear you,’ a third wrote.  

    Paramedic’s advice when an ambulance approaches 

    • Don’t panic… just chill
    • Don’t slam on the brakes and stop the car 
    • Do not block all the lanes at the intersection.
    • Don’t sneak out into the intersection
    • Relax, calm down and simply move to the left
