Here's a look at the exterior, light setup and interior of a new ambulance for the Scottish Ambulance Service.
This Mercedes Sprinter/ WAS features two Whelen 4500 lightbars, ION in the grille and M4 at the sides, a steady burn blue rear light, cameras all around the vehicle and the UK/ Scottland typical lift for the stretcher.
Also, did you ever wonder why many British ambulances sound so unusual with that certain pitch? • London Ambulance Servi... // • London Ambulance Servi...
You'll see the reason for that at 2:59. This is a Whelen/ Woodway mini siren speaker/ tube speaker. The actual heart of the speaker can be installed even in tight spaces behind the bumper. The sound then travels through the tube and exits right at the opening in front of the bumper which creates the distinctive sound/ accent of the siren.
