[Ride along] Ambulance 812 CPVFD/PGFD 

It's because insurance is a scam. Dishonest or scumbag work always gets more money. You just gotta get used to being a low down worthless piece of shit to do it.

They're volunteer

Fire and rescue salaries fluctuate a lot depending on where you work. I’m making $67,000 straight out of the fire academy (with EMT certified). EMT make little to nothing and it’s really sad. Police make all kinds of different wages just because there’s different things you can do as a police officer. But pay could definitely be higher

@@KandiKlover Yeah, you are right man!

Im Just Addicted to the sirens they dont annoy me at all lol

Sameeee!

Sooooo true XD

What was the code 3 emergency?

yeah old school lighting

We still have some Whelen strobes on some of our older vehicles and they pop like crazy. Our newer cars have the LEDS roof lights but still have strobes in the front corners and rear tail lights and you can hear them popping.

Incandescent are great. They got a real nice pop flash to em, same efficiency as LED too if you use the right chemistry.

@@KandiKlover I rode in Harford County in the late 80's/90's. Our Road Rescue (F350) boxes with the Whelen strobe packs sounded almost just like that. Just that sound brought back a ton of memories.

One of the best diesel engines ever made!

October 24th 2014, my first ride as a patient. Gun shot to the leg, heavy bleeding. Never been happier to see them.

Yes they were responding down Route 1 to 410 (East West Hwy) from station 812, they pass really close to 801 when they turn onto Queens Chapel road from 410 near the end of the video

I don't get the red lights on responding vehicles. Where's the blue?

Morten Vestergaard We use both and then some: -Red almost always denotes an emergency vehicle if the lights are facing forward. -Amber or Yellow lights are often used by utility vehicles such as construction vehicles, tow trucks, snow plows, funeral escorts and hearses, security patrol vehicles or other vehicles which may be stopped or moving slower than the flow of traffic. -White is often used as an optional color on lightbars -Green emergency lighting since 9/11 is now used by Homeland Security Agencies and Government/private security agencies protecting high risk government and Critical Infrastructure. -Blue is reserved for law enforcement, firefighters and EMTs. Fire and emergency medical services generally use red lights with amber and white as optionals. Vehicles operated by fire departments, such as fire engines and heavy rescue vehicles, prominently use red, a color with strong cultural associations with the fire service, along with some amber and white. Police agencies may use red, blue, or both, depending on the state, along with white and amber as optional colors; although amber is usually restricted to face behind the vehicle. Some police cars have an amber traffic-control stick, or "arrow stick", behind the lightbar to direct traffic left or right around the vehicle; these usually have 6 or 8 rear-facing lights that flash in sequence. ***Excerpts from the Wikipedia article "Emergency Vehicle Lighting"*** en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_vehicle_lighting#United_States

But red city lights, rear lights on cars, you name it. I mean.. Nothing in the traffic is blue except on emergency lights. It would be the obvious choice to make the car stand out among everything else. Like in Denmark! 100% blue and very effective!

I get that and I'm sure it's working fine, but you must admit that having a general understanding being blue lights = emergency would work better, as they stand out 100% from the traffic :)

***** Every state AND city is different. I lived in Illinois for 21 years and never saw a police car running red only. Was just recently back in Pekin visiting and the PD there and in Peoria still run red/blue/white. The Ambulance company that services almost all of central Illinois runs blue/green/white.

Right. It should be max 40mph, not to waste any fuel not needed and then I think we can cut out the lights and sirens as well. Probably also need some stronger laws to make sure they do not hurry to a person in need of help. Sounds good to me.. -- .. What the hell man? Considering fuel and speed for an ambulance?

in the new ford explorer interceptor you can control siren from steering wheel

by the siren is a horn which he clicks multiple times, just like a car horn but louder and specially made for ambulances. so he honks at people for them to move, something that just adds to the siren.

I know that but it should not require the driver to take their hands off the wheel. Hands should only be off the wheel to change gear and use the handbrake.

JW93Emergency Its USA. Everything is stupid, also the ambulance Driver.

Yup.

Yeah, you literally can just take a 9 month course at your local community college (if they offer it) to get your emt certification. Of course you still learn every necessity. It's not just 9 months of goofing off.

@@2112poopie wow, that is extremely short, here in the Netherlands you have to become a nurse first(4 years) than you have to work 3 ,years in the emergency section of a hospital( forgot the English word) than you can enter a, I believe, 1 year training to work as an ambulance nurse.

Ever heard of code 3 and a person in critical condition

Keep in mind this vehicle is most likely *from the 90s*

@@patrupumpkin wow, than it should be replaced
