James May was working nearby when he heard the crash. When he spotted fluid leaking, he and others rushed to help the crew. 

“We hurried on in as carefully as we can bring these men out of this ambulance here behind us here...We wanted to make sure that we got them out of there as quick as we could into safety so that nothing would happen to them...Something came over me, and we just ran to them and did our very best to to make sure that they were safe.”

Everyone involved in the collision are expected to be OK.
