If they're not dispatched on an emergency call, they have to follow the same laws any other vehicle does. It's pretty common now for ambulances to be equipped with a system which alerts sensors on traffic lights they're approaching, and it gets the signal to change for them. In places where such systems aren't in place, they might have to slow down, ensure that traffic stops for them, then go through.
