Two paramedics and one civilian were hospitalised after a car collided with an ambulance at the intersection of Albany Creek Rd and Beckett Rd in Bridgeman Downs on Tuesday morning, causing the emergency vehicle to flip onto its side.
The crash occurred at 7:36 AM when a Queensland Ambulance Service vehicle, responding to a code one emergency, was struck by a car.
Two paramedics sustained shoulder injuries in the rollover. They were transported to St Andrew’s War Memorial Hospital in stable condition.
The occupant of the other vehicle involved suffered shoulder and knee pain and was also taken to St Andrew’s War Memorial Hospital in stable condition.
The collision temporarily blocked a lane at the intersection of Bridgeman and Graham Roads.
Emergency crews have since removed the overturned ambulance from the scene, and all lanes are now open to traffic.
