I'm not afraid of the schooling, the ride alongs, or the emergency scenarios that run through my head... the long hours dont bother me at all... The only thing that makes me nervous is the thought of speeding down the road in a box truck. What do they tell you as far as how to drive? I'm not asking about the training, but what is the expectation? Like, how fast do you go when you are in a hurry, and do you find yourself weaving through traffic a lot? I've seen ambulance drivers drive all sorts of ways, and wasnt sure what the norm is, or if there are rules you follow.. or if its sirens blaring and anything goes lol
And is it true that the newbs drive the most?
(And i'm not calling anyone's profession an 'ambulance driver', i am referring simply to the part of the job where you are driving an ambulance)
Thanks
