NEW YORK — Four vehicles — including an FDNY ambulance and a city bus — collided on a busy Harlem street yesterday morning, sending 19 people to area hospitals, officials said.

Witnesses said a woman behind the wheel of an Acura sedan didn’t appear to see or hear an ambulance that was speeding down W. 125th St. at 11:45 a.m. — and drove directly into the emergency vehicle’s path.

“Because she had the music loud and she was on the phone, she didn’t hear the ambulance,” said Moise Cone, 37, of the Bronx.
