This is the shocking moment an ambulance where the driver forgot to turn on the blue lights and siren overturns after being hit by a car at an intersection.

The crash, which injured five people, happened in Cherepovets, Russia, at around 11:05am on 11th August.

Video footage shows the ambulance entering the junction as a Citroen driven by a teenage driver goes through on a green light.

The front of the car slams into the side of the ambulance, which is then seen crashing into a traffic light before tipping over onto its side.

Police said the 63-year-old ambulance driver had been travelling through the red light without flashing lights or a siren and had not ensured the way was clear.

The ambulance driver, two medical staff aged 41 and 42, and a 20-year-old Citroen passenger were taken to hospital.

The 19-year-old Citroen driver was not hospitalised and remained at the scene.
