Park Scene Ambulance Feet Past Side Road Location

Front Where and how should you park the ambulance?
Back You should park this about 100 feet past the scene on the same side of the road, in a location that will not hamper leaving the scene. Parking before the scene creates a barrier between you and oncoming traffic, and may also be a good idea. It is best to park uphill and upwind of the scene if smoke or hazardous materials are present. Always leave your warning lights or devices on.
