I can say that its a very high probability that you need a drivers licence, I just finished my EMT-B certification in Utah and they require a drivers licence. Typically how it works is you would have a 2 man ambulance crew for each rig and the more experienced EMT or paramedic will be working with the patient and the less experienced one is going to be driving.

But, Its possible that you won't need one. If you decide to work in the hosptial or in a medical supply store (both of which I have seen require or prefer EMT-B/CNA certification or higher) But, I can at least tell you I suspect that you will need one. When I started my certification this fall there was a kid that asked that on the first day of class, and the instructor told me what I just told you and he dropped the class before the next day. So, don't be discouraged, it all depends on what your local and state protocols dictate. It would be best to contact your local EMS or Fire Department to know more. Best of luck!
