- Ride along with squad 14 from the Los Angeles County Fire Department, following a private BLS ambulance to the hospital in Inglewood. The patient was the victim of a stroke and its condition requested one of the squad paramedics to remain in the ambulance to provide ALS care. The squad's electronic siren is made by Unitrol but the truck also has a two tone air horn siren similar to the french ones and can be operated by the passenger (in this case me: the cameraman) through a foot switch - by Dirk Steinhardt - www.rescue911.de - Los Angeles, California, USA - 09.2010 - Thanks to the guys from 14!!!

The siren is no joke! I live here (in LA) and from time to time I've heard the two tone sirens on our fire vehicles! I
LUCKY!! You got to control the siren!
never saw/heard this combination before...just great
they are paramedic firefighters, and commonly respond to medical calls, and fire calls. watch the show Emergency! on hulu, it seems about right with the role of the squad
Nice ride along on video
I just love the unitrols we use in SoCal...
it's great to see that after 30 + years they still do things exactly like they did during the days of the tv show emergency. squads w/ ambulances. LACoFD is great!!!
Great Videos Dirk.
Very well done Dirk.
Unitrol touchmaster siren. My favorite.
Hope They Guy In The Ambulance is Okay Awesome Camera Man~!
SICK FORD FIRE TRUCK
I cant believe they are still using those Motorola 9100T mdc’s!
Awesome video!
Great Video Keep Them Coming
Great Video!
Yet another great video, Dirk. Great two-tones! I am a very keen fire enthusiast particularly of UK brigades because I'm a Brit. But recently I have been more and more drawn to US fire departments - the apparatus, the stations etc. But I am still getting a little confused about certain terminologies that seem to differ from department to department. I've heard Squads used to describe HazMat teams, brush fire units and ambulances. But can you tell me what the role of LACFD squads is please?
Isn't a Martinhorn, it's a Fiamm Hi/LO Air Horn made for emergency vehicles in California.
If I didn't know that was an ambulance in front of “us”, I'd swear we where following a school bus the way the ambulance's back lights are flashing. Great video BTW.
please more videos on this squad
Boy that was a heck of a long distance run there.
I remember in the older days, when you pressed the foot switch, It actually rang the big Bell that was on the front of the truck......
What was the county thinking when they put that airhorn in?
I understand that one squad member transports on the ambulance, I'm just confused as to why the second squad member follows with lights and sirens on as opposed to driving with the flow of traffic.
Because they have to respond code 3
@BwoodLegionAmb12 doesn't sound like the "real" martin horn, rwather like the french or italian version
I heard that you can't film ride alongs anymore because I went on one yesterday and they wouldn't let me film it
+RedCadet6 It's more a case of the medics themselves, the main thing is you can't film patient treatment at all
Why aren’t the ambers flashing in the back of the bus. Did the A/O cruise to the ER in the Secondaries ( or was it just the video missing the sequence of the LEDs🚑🚒
The ambulance was an older spare with its original halogen lights. That unit has since retired for an all LED fleet for the McCormick Ambulance corps.
Is that ford super duty truck or an excursion??
how loud is the siren inside the squad car
Tyler Kemp what squad car, its a medic unit
@bonzty Thats actuly not a French siren. Its a mode of siren most commenly found on electronic sirens. It is assiociated with Europe because they use it more often.
Also wrong. There is 2 sirens on this old truck... The wail and Yelp are the only tones that the LA County FD would use on the Unitrol Touchmaster electronic siren box. The Hi-Lo sound, is actually a 2 tone air horn made by Fiamm, which can be activated by using a separate pedal or a separate button that's NOT connected to the Unitrol box.
LACoFD Does not transport they use private ambulance service, the Squad follows up to get his partner and If the patient goes south they can have the second medic jump in and assist. Also If the patient is bad and the patient requires 2 Medics a FF can drive the squad to the hospital. They run code because in LA County you have to have 2 Paramedics to respond to a call also If you are a paramedic Ambulance both people must be Paramedics.
+Gary Howard Also if 2 medics go in Ambo. one of the EMTs of the Ambo. could just drive it, gonna be going to the hospital anyways
Doesn’t LACo have a yellow bus in Catalina & I saw a bus back in the early days of 2000 of a red bus in Whittier🚑🚒
was that a martin horn?
Nope, it's a Fiamm. The Martinhorn would be more throaty and louder.
Same sirens the PD uses here.
à 1:56 et 2:55 c'est le deux tons francais non ? car ca y resemble fort x)
@seserbcp it's an old italian siren, it was a joke made by the guys for rescue911de, I think
The 2 tone horns were in use since the 60s within the LA County and LA City FD. You can hear it on later episodes of the LA County FD drama, "Emergency!"
They are training paramedic. But firefighter that drive the squads.
@zman7331 i think let everyone know that here we come. be caution
Mais c'est un klaxon de la police française que l'on entend à 4:40 et après ???
the driver of the mccormick ambulance only had half the lights on while on the transport unless the back ones are broken...
x4093k I noticed that too. His tail lights aren't on which makes me think he's running drl only
x4093k I take that back...hard to see.
Anyone from LACoFD on here able to tell me why the squad follows lights and sirens?
One member from the squad helps take care of the patient in the ambulance and meets them at te hospital
German siren in the USA? wow, WTF never heared
I suppose they tell you about HIPAA, right? before you go on the ride alongs?
IAMMARSHY Yeah this wasn't a violation of HIPPA.
you guys must not be friends lol how do you not talk
squad 51 engine 51 the hub needs the of
emergency.
@bd5035 ford super duty 450
like
why was squads sirens not going the entire time when following the ambulance? That's standard procedure here?
That is the rules in LA county. Whoever is 1st shall lead the way with full siren usage, and rightfully so, the ambulance leads the way so it can get to the ER doors 1st.
🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
@bonzty It's not a French siren. LAcoFD uses Fiat Hi-Lo sirens from Italy. These sirens are TRUE Hi-Lo sirens unlike the disgusting Hi-Lo tones American companies try to IMITATE in their electronic sirens. In European countries I was impressed by the effective warning a real Hi-Lo produces. Americans keep adding 10 tone electronic sirens, mechanical Q sirens, bells, horns, and now rumblers and we still keep struggling to clear traffic, all because people are immune to U.S. sirens blaring.
However, Fiamm has a Specific air horn siren that the Italians use for their firemen, "La Sirena Pneumatica" . A very strange siren thats rarely used anymore by Vigili Del Fuoco (Firefighters), Ambulanza (Paramedics) and specialty groups: the VAB (based on Germany's THW, a Technical rescue service), Forest Firefighters and Civil Protection.
have you seen emergency engine 8 responds to
a hartatack and there are no rescue units engine8
has to wait ten mints for rescue 8 to get clear and
by the time thay get there he dead and when s
thay get him to rampart he flatlines. im telling you theres no way a victom
should have to pay.
no name, no face, minimal details
this fucking french siren is disturbing!
