And should anybody be in a critical state that needs an ambulance, they are going to be looked after.

You know, today is a day that the public, if they can make it to a hospital and that it's something that they can address by driving there, let them do that.

Because, you know, in recent years, the ambulance service has been used as a taxi service too to get an easy way into A&E.

And it has been used nilly-willy.

This is one day out of the year where they would ask the public also to help them

And to understand it.

And I can understand that for a paramedic or an advanced paramedic or like the gentleman that you're talking to online, that he sees an opposite side to it.

I also see another side to it.

I'm seeing it from my perspective.

But I do know that if there is a crash that happens, the calls are graded.

And I would hope that dispatch would...

you know, send what is needed or whatever units are needed.

But these people work in, you know, patient care is their priority.

You know, this kind of a job is not for the faint-hearted.

It's for a certain individual to do a job like this.

It's not an easy job.

So I don't believe they're going to leave anybody.

Well, look, like I said, look, I'm just seeing it from a public... I know this man has seen it from a different side than I am.

I don't believe that anybody will be left behind today that's in critical need, whether it be a motorbike crash, car crash, heart attack.

I don't believe any of these people will be left behind today.
