CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. — Dash-cam video from an ambulance shows a car skidding out of control, narrowly missing the vehicle and then crashing into a police car, pushing it toward medics.
The close call happened when an ambulance was dispatched to a medical emergency on the Southbound shoulder of the I-87 Interstate, according to FirefighterCloseCalls.com.
A police patrol arrived several minutes later, parking adjacent to ambulance in the slow lane to block traffic, the report said.
While the medics were assessing the patient and the officer was approaching, the video shows a car losing control and then striking the police squad.
