Pre-Wake Boarding

The act of trailing an ambulance on the road so as to pass all the cars pulling off to allow the ambulance by.

I was about to be late for work until an ambulance pulled out in front of me in a hurry. I sped up and was Pre-Wake Boarding all the way to work and managed to get there on time.
