OK, I feel compelled to comment here (after reading many of the comments) 1.) Yes, a lot of people are stupid and never yield to emergency vehicles. Anyone in public safety can tell you that. Despite what DeutscherGam3R stated, drivers all over the world can be stupid. 2.) If it doesn't seem that the ambulance is going that fast for "Code 3", its because they probably weren't. Your chances of being involved in an accident go up as much as 60% when you are running "hot". Some of the worst trauma patients I have ever had were driven to a trauma center with me going no faster than 30-40 MPH. It is safer for everyone, and plus you have to remember you have people in the back that you are bouncing around. Their life is in your hands - not just the patients. 3.) It is hard to judge distance, space and speed when watching something recorded on a camera. 4.) I would have NEVER driven over the grassy area by the school buses. Yes I understand they weren't moving right away, but you have to remember the people in back (See #3)
Sometimes you have to "wake up" the other drivers. I have noticed that a large number of drivers that don't move over is because they are in another world, usually on a cell phone. The air horn tells them something is there.....hang up and drive....Thanks for the stars.
That's the thing these days, people won't move over for an emergency vehicle. They don't care until it is them or a family member in one or in need of one.
I hear you, people just don't care. Is it so hard to move over and let them pass, I mean seriously you turn the wheel and get over, not that hard. People are always in a hurry now and think that moving over is going to make them even later. OMG I need to get to McDonald's, wait is that a firetruck? Oh well I will just keep driving. People kill me with the laziness of not moving over.
As a father of the children ages 10,9 and 4. If one ever has to go to the hospital via ambulance, I hope that driver will what ever it takes to get them there as fast as possible. Man that was some good driving.
Very professional driving. I could never stay that calm -- my adrenaline was pumping just watching this video. Why are there speed bumps in a medical complex? That's gotta be annoying to ambulance drivers 50 times a day and slows down arrival time.
Iv been a volunteer for 5 years in nepa an people stuck to there phones iv learned st160 street thunder with 2 100wat speakers and a rumbler work fantastic to get the hell out the way
I think ambulances and other responding vehicles should be equipped with push bars. JUST for moving twats out of the way. And let a PSA out so everyone KNOWS to move over and that they can do that. Just my thoughts
in downtown NY, I have heard first responders with very loud horns and "megaphones" telling drivers to get out of the way, NOW. I like the idea of push bars and also code readers for licenses, too.
Use your turn signal that you are moving to the right. That will let the driver of the emergency vehicle know you see it. then when safe to, more to the right and slow down, not suddenly. It all depends if on a 4 lane, 2 lane, etc. If 4 lane or more, just move over to a right lane. But, the emergency vehicle may move to a right lane to exit, like on a freeway. On a 2 lane, usually signal, slow, and move to the right is best. Check the laws in your state.
Depends on the state. Generally it's seatbelts always on unless you're working with a patient in the ambulance and the seatbelt would obstruct you from safely doing whatever you need to do.
thanks for the comments. I have a great mount that suction cup mounts to the windshield. It has worked out great, does not get in the way, and has never fallen. I did have to add a piece to it so it would hold the camera upright. nothing major.
kos, im a paramedic who halves my time driving and the other in als patient care. in my service we have 2 seperate wheelen sirens (t3, fed, rad, wail, etc.) and have an air horn. we spend that extra money because it has been shown in tests that some sirens are more effective when cars are far away and others are better when nearby. p.s . the t3 doesnt "lose volume" it is a loud, haunting sound and drivers hear it before the all of sirens used in this video.
no, im in louisiana.. they say that when driving faster than 45 mph, the flow of air going into the siren will overpower the siren itself, so using sirens on the interstate is not neeeded, but still should be used for nearby vehicles to hear.
#1 some states require electronic siren always on.and a lot of people have it in yelp especially if it's a pa300 #2 you always drive code 3 on the highway #3 Not getting the patient to the hospital will kill him,not driving on grass for 10 seconds #4 they didn't endanger anybody #5 You pass on the right if you can't on the left,it's an emergency you get there one way or another as long as you do it safely. I don't know what drugs you are on but these guys are good drivers
Yes they are required to move to the right. The time I moved right is when a line of traffic stopped in the left lane and left the right lane open. I used the open lane instead of trying to get the stopped left lane to all move over. On this road, we take what they give us.
@@armystrong9997 the ones that *DIDN'T probably think the license they get when they drive the Autopia at Disney World is good enough to pass as a real license.
Children are the hardest and a challenge. This child was having periods of apnea. We were transferring it to a children s hospital where there were specialist.
@hnie0607 if you would know what they did here: in front of the hospital there's a 30km/h (19 mph) zone, but no one slowed down, and then they turned that part iinto cobbled street. So now all the ambulances transporting patients to the hospital are driving really sloooooowly there; as far as I know they want to fix that mistake this year
its all very well complaining about people not pulling over but whoever designed that as the ambulance route into a hospital should be pulled over themselves - all the time gained rushing there only to lose it on speed bumps. WTF!!
+Wot Viewer I was thinking the exact thing when I first noticed your comment. They need a way for emergency responders to get to the hospital that doesn't require the same route that everyone else uses. Speed bumps are for slowing down stupid drivers who can't get their foot off the accelerator, not for slowing down ambulances...
Actually the law here in Alabama says you are to yield to the right of emergency vehicles. This area where we were, They move wherever they can to move out of the way. Which is fine with me. Thanks for the comment.
@firerescue427 We are a small town, only service there that does all calls, all hauls. We do a lot of inter facility transfers that are usually 80+ miles one way.
I had to use the right lane to exit off the interstate. Its not smart to shoot across from the left across three lanes of traffic to exit. That would be extremely dangerous driving. The only other time I got in the right lane was when a truck stopped dead in the right lane. I knew he stopped for us. Watch it again. Thanks for watching.
The Motor Vehicle Act allows you to proceed through a red light or stop sign without stopping (Section 118 (1)(b)). BCAS policies and procedures do not. However, the Motor Vehicle Act does require you to drive with due regard for safety
Wow school buses were stopped in traffic with doors closed no problem no danger off road yes quickest thru the traffic no problem there siren on on the highway no problem it helps warn the traffic I give the driver 10/10 for good safe driving while getting his patient to hospital as fast as possible
this was an inter facility transport, upgrade in care. Some of the hospitals do not require us to call in if we are bypassing the ER. He thought this was one of them. This hospital likes to know so they can have security meet us and escort us to the patients room.
All ambulances and emergency vehicle should have this. Have a camera in the front so when people dont move out of the way you can send them a ticket in the mail.
If thats what you call heavy traffic, I'd love to have your response area during 'light traffic' haha. You wouldn't believe the amount of maneuvering it takes to get through Wilshire or Sunset Blvd during normal times, let alone rush hour. I don't know how LAFD's trucks do it. But excellent driving - very well done! And I have to echo others here - nice airhorn!
I totally understand that.. and because of that, I was cautious when rolling code 3. But when a vehicle is behind you for a while "code 3", no matter how 'quiet' the siren is, you should be able to see or hear it. But yeah, I know there are times a department will have quiet sirens and I have always taken that in effect. Sometimes I have heard people say "why don't they just go around me?", which does nothing but show how ignorant they are. DMV is responsible for training new drivers. :-)
I can't believe the amount of people that don't know how to move out of the way, something like that happens in my town and the air horn is on immediately. Usually we are also using the air horns a lot more when encountering traffic jams like that too.
A study done a few years ago found the average distance a motorist became aware of an emergency vehicle with lights and sirens was 20 yards. So not much.
@dewjr06 I run with a volly ambulance in CT, one of our guys who was driving got stuck behind someone who flat out refused to yield, didn't move at all, so he wrote down the lic plate # and gave it to the state troopers in our town, BAM $300 dollar fine and a summons in the jerks mailbox three days later. :D
0:45 was a no win situation for everyone 2:53 was even worse [greater chance of someone having an accident]. Like above, no win situation for everyone, but is it just me or would it might??? have helped if you had moved to the turn lane a bit faster [so everyone else didn't go in it]. 5:16 was a pleasant surprise, a [white] car that actually took the initiative to move & create a path, rather than stay put and hope you find a way around them. keep up the good work & thanks for the videos
@sn9696 Im a Firefighter/EMT try transporting someone in cardiac arrest while people are not yeilding to lights and sirens you would get upset to knowing every second counts!
interesting in seeing the difference of codes. here in this vid its Code 3 which must mean urgent?, in NZ its colour coded.m Purple, Red, Orange, Green, Grey. Purple being a cardiac/resp arrest, Red meaning urgent or under lights, orange is immediate response at road speed but we can upgrade to under lights if we deem it needed by reading the job notes etc, Green and Grey road speed non urgent.
in my area in Pennsylvania, we use codes like delta Charlie bravo and alpha response . delta being the most urgent while alpha means no lights and sirens.
m2inla: I don't know of any radio shop that checks electronic siren output by measuring wattage. I'll bet if they did, they would find some pretty pooped-out sirens. Are you in Calif? Last I heard, the CHP did not want EVs to use sirens on the freeways. Keep saving lives out there!
@stedon101 You do realize that they have to get the same certification? The only difference is where the paycheck comes from and the name on the side of their unit.
@theunknownnewbie Well, in Canada, on any multi-lane highway/freeway, we're to move SAFELY to whichever side is closest in order to make room for the emergency vehicle. So if I were in the fast lane on a highway, I'd move to the left shoulder. No sense crossing three or more lanes just to get to the right. I'm sure it would be the same for the U.S :)
@oscarcardozo Some ambulance don't go more than 80 MPH due to the safety of the patient. An example would be idiots not getting out of the way when they see an ambulance on the highway or road.

You can drive with yelp as the primary siren. It is also good to vary siren pitches. If the intersection your trying to get through is blocked by traffic then you do have the option to shut off all emergency equipment until able to proceed. You are also allowed to go code 3 on the freeway. There is no problems with that. Finally, although you should be passing on the left, sometimes passing on the right is the only option and can be safer in some unique situations.
yes it does. But i bet you are talking about the time i had to pass on the right. thise vehicles had stopped for me. So it was easier to pass on the right than it was to force all of them to the right.

That was funny how all the kids in the back of that first bus was looking at the ambulance like the had no clue of what was going on. They got horns that sound weird.
Not a whole lot the cop could have done. The ambulance was already off roading. AND they probably don't work for the same city. Police traffic is on one channel and Fire traffic on another (larger cities might have an ambulance channel too)
I think its ridiculous how some people are oblivious to the vehicle behind them with flashing lights and sirens and just keep driving and dont yield or even make an attempt to

Second, what kind of air horn is installed on the rig?

Good response :) The air horn is so awesome!
You can drive with yelp as the primary siren. It is also good to vary siren pitches. If the intersection your trying to get through is blocked by traffic then you do have the option to shut off all emergency equipment until able to proceed. You are also allowed to go code 3 on the freeway. There is no problems with that. Finally, although you should be passing on the left, sometimes passing on the right is the only option and can be safer in some unique situations.
That is a Grover 1510 Stuttertone. They have a very nice sound
What was the nature of illness or mechanism of injury?
If you read the side of the first school bus it said mobile county school distrist. The city of Mobile is in Alabama.
yes it does. But i bet you are talking about the time i had to pass on the right.
thise vehicles had stopped for me. So it was easier to pass on the right than it was to force all of them to the right.
Could you imagine fire trucks with big cowbells? Awesome.
Imagine a back trauma, or neck trauma... must hurt as hell when entering ahha
That's a heavy engine sound. Was this a mobile care unit? It sounds too big to be an ambulance.

theres alot of shell gas stations down there. unless ur repeatedly driving by the same one from different directions

How did your patient end up doing?
the camera is fixed. The driver did not hold the camera and film. I'm sure the family wont complain about us getting there safe and quick as possible.
im guessing it has to be a lucky day for you to go on the ambulance with the eq2b???
good video keep'em up
