AMBULANCE paramedics who rushed to give a patient emergency treatment found a note on their vehicle’s windscreen calling them “dumbass” for blocking the driveway of a house.

The crew from South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS), which covers Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Hampshire, attended a medical emergency at a property in Lymington in Hampshire when the note was left on their vehicle.

It read: “Dumbass! You are fully blocking my driveway!” It was found by the crew, whose names were given as Zoe and Chris.
