The Fire Service should handle extrication; thats their job, its what they have done for donkeys years and they are very good at it.
New South Wales in AU has Ambulance Rescue in some areas which provides extrication at road traffic accidents otherwise (like generally anywhere else in the world) its done by NSW Fire Brigades.
Locally speaking Ambulance Rescue (SERT) provides support to the Police Armed Offenders Sqaud, CBRN and medical support for USAR/high angle/cliff/cave rescue.
If somebody here needs to be cut out of a car, the Fire Service is very aware they need to work with/wait for Ambulance to take care of the patient.
Most road traffic accidents you can get an ambo in the back, through the windscreen, under the bus etc to get some initial assessment and stabilisation, collar, bleeding control/torniquet as appropriate, intravenous fluids or pain relief.
