When following an ambulance, it's generally advised to stay at least 500 feet behind it to allow for proper clearance and to not obstruct its path. However, if the ambulance is responding with lights and sirens, it's best to give it as much space as possible and pull over to the side of the road. Always abide by local traffic laws and regulations regarding emergency vehicles.

How many feet behind an emergency vehicle can you drive?

Normally about 100 feet depending upon speed. I once passed an ambulance with full lights going. It was only going 45 mph on a 55 mph road. I wanted to do 55mph so I passed it. It was hard to see ahead of the ambulance to pass because of the blinding flashers, but I made it ok. Left the ambulance in the DUST.

If first on scene, 50 feet behind the accident, unless you see flames, leaking fluid, or fumes. then 100 feet away. If another unit is on scene and behind the accident, then park the ambulance 100 feet ahead of the crash. The goal is to surround the accident to create a safe work environment After that, the goal is to enable to leave the scene easily if you need to rapidly transport a patient.
