The footage shows an ambulance speeding through a red light, hitting a car as it crossed the junction.
The car then sped forward, throwing two pedestrians a number of metres across the road.
Despite the force of the hit, the victims survived. They both suffered extreme fractures, and the car was also severely damaged.
An investigation by the local transportation authority said that the patient on board the ambulance was not in a life-threatening condition, so the ambulance should not have jumped the traffic light.
The ambulance driver has taken full responsibility for the accident, and has paid a fine.
