When arriving as the first unit at the location of a motor vehicle collision on an interstate highway, you should position the ambulance so that there is a safe area beyond the damaged vehicles.
Units must be positioned to provide the most protection for the staff and patients when operating at a crash site. In order to safeguard the scene, the first unit to arrive should position itself upstream and off-center of the impact. If it's an ambulance, it needs to be transported downstream before people are loaded.
All vehicles must be parked with the front wheels facing outward and the parking brake engaged at a 45-degree angle. Your car will take the brunt of the force in a collision and be propelled away from the scene.
Minimal emergency lights should be used. The first car to approach upstream often leaves its lights on since an excessive amount of brightness might be confusing for drivers.
