Shocking footage filmed on Wednesday (June 3) at 3:30 pm shows drivers queuing at a McDonalds drive-thru in Wolverhampton, UK blocking an ambulance on call.

A steward is seen forcing the drivers out of the way so the ambulance could get passed the gridlocked road and cars mounted on the pavement.

The filmer, Tia-anne Sterling told Newsflare: "The selfish drivers refused to help and move out of the way of a flashing ambulance as they didn't want to lose their spot in the McDonald’s queue. I’m appalled to see how selfish people can be."

Today (June 4) the food giant reopened another 261 drive-thrus after closing all UK restaurants on March 23 due to the coronavirus outbreak
