The driver, Mr. White, 　39　 his siren (警报器) and flashing light, and started speeding toward the 　40　 hospital, fighting against 　41　. The cars ahead of him pulled out of way 　42　 he drove through the busy traffic. From the back of the ambulance the parents were shouting at him to 　43　, since Ally almost stopped breathing. In front of him he saw some traffic 　44　, with the red “stop” light shining. Mr. White knew he had no time to lose, so he drove straight past the traffic lights, looking 　45　 his left and right as he did so.
Coming towards him from his right was a 　46　. The driver had the windows 　47　, since the car was air-conditioned, and he was playing his radio. He did not hear the ambulance.
The lights were 　48　, so he drove straight 　49　 into the path of the ambulance. Mr. White tried to stop his ambulance, but it was too late. It hit the taxi. Everyone was shaken but no one was hurt.
