• Knee injuries
• Severed limbs

Of course, those being transported in the ambulance may already be injured or may be medically frail, so an ambulance incident is likely to be devastating and cause even more harm.

In the incident mentioned above, liability is unclear because no details have been released. Ultimately, the details surrounding each incident will determine liability and victims’ right to sue.
