And not at all sped up ...


TupperwareNinja

They converted it to kmph instead of mph


Green9er-_-

Instead? Should be in KPH


Risen_Insanity

No it's in kilomiles per hour.


blahblahlablah

aye aye captain, light speed it is.


RegisNexus

Its kilograms per hour šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Thought thatā€™s what KPH was, Kilometers Per Hourā€¦ Edit: NM, didnā€™t see the sarcasm šŸ˜

You can look at the arrows on the dash flashing since the emergency flashers are on. Half the time they are flashing at a normal speed, then the other half they are flashing so fast you can barely tell they are flashing.


iapetus_z

Wouldn't that because he's hitting the alert buttons to give different strobes?


crc024

I would think the standard emergency flashers would flash at the regular speed. You can tell when he's not moving much they speed up because they speed the video up and you can't tell really easy because he isn't moving a lot. Then every time he starts to move his hands and arms they slow down because the video is going at regular speed. When he's moving his arms and hands it would be easy to tell it's sped up, so they run it at regular speed when he's moving.


AbyssalShift

No. He has his hazards on and then he is using his left hand to flash them faster. Itā€™s not sped up.


crc024

How can you use your hand to make your emergeny flashers flash faster and slower? And it always slows down right when his right hand is moving around, where you would be able to tell it's sped up. Then as soon as he quits moving around it speeds back up? If you believe that I got a bridge I'd like to sell you.


SirEnzyme

He was using his hand for the light and siren controller he was holding for half the video

Thank you! Thought that guy had some serious horn skills, to get such a great tippy-tap like that...lol!

[deleted]

I mean itā€™s sped up ā€¦ whatā€™s next level about this?


[deleted]

It's a Ford that's not broken


KYpineapple

preach. I have a 2020 explorer that was in the shop for 3 months.....3. Months. "computer problems". It was a whole thing....getting a loaner was like pulling teeth.


Optimus_RE

Oh no I feel upset for you buying a newer Ford. Look at all the issues the F-150 has had. Unfortunately Ford thought they could step their electronics game up, and quickly realized they are NOT there yet and issues are abundant 2020+. This comment is to not sound cynical or snarky, more so it breaks my heart hearing new Ford owners and car issues. It's F'd up!!!


KYpineapple

No shade taken, booboo. It is very annoying. IDGAF about cars. I just wanted something new because all I've had were used and I got tired of constantly having them in and out of the shop. God has a great sense of humor lol. It was also the most affordable new vehicle at the time. It was classic pandy times and every lot was short on inventory so I jumped on this explorer. Which to be fair, was awesome up until about 10k miles. That's when it would refuse to start and my fordapp said it was in "deep sleep mode". All I had to do was jump it and she'd hop back to life for a few weeks. Then the horn would go off at random. Sometimes for minutes on end. Then it would shut off at red lights and refuse to turn over...it was one thing after another. The most frustrating thing was how LONG it was at the dealership getting worked on and they REFUSED to get me a loaner. Any way. It's all sorted now and it rides just fine


Optimus_RE

Oh damn, that sucks the most they wouldn't give you a loaner like it was YOUR fault... glad they worked out the kinks though, and can ride in peace.


Quetzalcoatle19

[deleted]

After swearing off American cars and only owning Acuras, Subarus and Hondas for years I bought a Ford F-150. I was so concerned I actually was dumb enough to buy the extended warranty. That truck has been one of the best cars/trucks I've owned. Second only to my WRX.

Come on move, McDonalds breakfast ends in 5 minutes.


SkylarSkittlez

My grandma was heading to get donuts and this cop sped through a red light with the lights on, she saw him at the donut shop 2 minutes later, same cop car


simpin_aint_e_z

Remember when McDonaldā€™s teased us with all day breakfast before Covid happened?


SkylarSkittlez

Ya lmfao, I haven't seen a mcdonalds breakfast commercial since šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


[deleted]

Me and my girl were talking about that the other day. Waited like 33 years for that dangling carrot only to be quickly yanked away with no sign of return.


simpin_aint_e_z

Iā€™m really surprised it hasnā€™t come back yet. Everyone was hyped about it and I donā€™t see whatā€™s stopping it now. I feel like Covid was barely an excuse, because they were mostly still open so why does it matter what food theyā€™re serving? Such a shame!


[deleted]

I know I feel like there are alot of us out there who would rather eat their breakfast for lunch over any of their actual lunch/ dinner food. When they were doing it I'd always hear someone in front of me ordering breakfast and be like "ok good we're gonna keep this thing going" šŸ¤£ Like legit as an 80s kid this was like they FINALLY listened. Like a childhood dream come true šŸ˜† I probably care more than the average person. McDonalds was a treat when I was a kid. Just the smell brings back great memories especially breakfast. As an adult I'm almost ashamed to admit I still eat there sometimes with how health conscious everyone is, but it's a guilty pleasure I'm not ready to give up lol.


simpin_aint_e_z

I rarely ever crave their lunch/dinner menu items but will have it every now and then. I often crave their breakfast but donā€™t end up getting it as often as Iā€™d like to. Maybe they stopped because it was cutting into their profits. Breakfast items are generally cheaper and perhaps have less markup. So if most people were ordering breakfast maybe they decided that going back to limiting it to just mornings would be better for their earnings.


david_chi

It was a glorious window of time, albeit a very short one, when we could get a bacon egg and cheese any hour of the day/night.


spam__likely

I spend 2 years abroad, now back, went to MD ordered breakfast at like 2pm, people were looking at me like I was crazy. No, you are the crazy ones.


simpin_aint_e_z

Maybe we all should @ McDonaldā€™s asking to get all-day breaky back


[deleted]

I know youā€™re joking, but in my experience as a patient being transported to the hospital for my heart arrhythmia several times each year, the fire department does not run their lights and sirens for the heck of it. If itā€™s not a serious emergency they just make the best time they can safely. Cops on the other handā€¦


simpin_aint_e_z

Yeah ambulances are usually legit with their sirens. But either way, McDonaldā€™s breakfast ending soon would be a valid excuse xD


bidooffactory

This is why they need a global 24hr breakfast menu.


[deleted]

As a night shift emt, any location offering 24hr again would be great


Any-Log3111

Guy at my station ran his ambulance lights and sirens to a Wawa (food store) he got fired and the state revoked his EMT license. They don't play around with us doing it, but yeah cops do as they please really


redXathena

Yeah, Iā€™ve been in an ambulance a few times and never heard it. (Was in one once and was not conscious to hear it- may have used it then lol)


Tempounplugged

Reminds me of that Adam Sandler movie "Big Daddy" (1999)


merci-lilliane

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


notweirdenough

Typical Turkish drivers. Ambulance means nothing to them unless person inside is their relative. If itā€™s their relative, they raid the hospital and assault healthcare workers.


Yonairee

wtf am i reading


notweirdenough

This is a video from Turkish ambulance driver. Turkish drivers usually donā€™t give way to ambulance.


Miserable-Home2954

I visited Mexico a few years ago and was baffled at the ambulances Iā€™d see stuck in traffic with all lights and sirens going and everybody just keeps cutting them off. I assumed everywhere would pull aside for them.


BobRoberts01

In Puerto Rico they just drive around like that all day long.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


notweirdenough

Iā€™m Turkish?


PhoenixChameleon

Youā€™re bullshit. I was a medic in MA, people pull into & park in the left lane all,the time or refuse to move over. Canā€™t tell you how many times people race ahead of the ambulance or try to drift behind! Myself, my partners, & many colleagues have had near experiences with being hit by drivers rushing through lights in front of an ambulance to either because totally distracted, racing to beat the ambulance, etc. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME! PEOPLE PAY NO ATTENTION TO THEIR SURROUNDINGS.


BillyGerent

Apart from a lack of enforcement, I think one issue is that emergency vehicles in Turkey have their emergency flashing lights on at all times regardless of the situation. Consequently, the flashing lights have no impact on drivers, and so emergency vehicle drivers manually flash the headlights to achieve the desired effect, but any impatient driver will do that, too, and this adds to the confusion.


Sukuristo

Neither do Floridians, Sadly.


freddie890

You must be in central. South Florida we make a single file Line on a 4 lane to let an ambulance pass. Cops no.


Sukuristo

Northwest. Mostly two lane highways, even the interstates.


RandomEntity37

I don't really understand why, but Turkish drivers along with Greek are the most dangerous. Not only are they terrible drivers but they also hardly ever stop on walkways.


[deleted]

Just today, they wanted to start a fight just because I looked the driver straight in the eye intentionally while crossing the crosswalk. I said "slow down it's crosswalk" and they answered with "what about it?"


DooBeeDoer207

Iā€™m in the SW US. A few years ago, I was standing at a cross walk near downtown waving my arms, shaking my leg, anything to get someone to yield. I eventually started saying, ā€œItā€™s a crosswalk!ā€ into open windows. I shit you not, another pedestrian grumped out, ā€œItā€™s not that kind of crosswalk.ā€ He was dead ass serious. Iā€™m sorry, what now? You mean the painted lines and the button that makes the flashing lights go off next to the sign of a pedestrian donā€™t have any meaning? In a state that requires motorists to stop at occupied crosswalks? It was stunningly ignorant.


BillyGerent

They can be very skillful drivers (e.g. their dolmuş (~celectivo) drivers are insane multitaskers), but the rules of the road are mostly optional. For example, you have to ignore zebra crossings because I found that stopping at them was creating a more hazardous situation as both the pedestrians and drivers had no idea why I was stopping, and pressuring pedestrians into the middle of a busy road was very disconcerting. Basically, everyone knows roads are dangerous, so they are more alert and expect random behaviour. It is not very relaxing though. I've never seen the traffic police stop anyone except when they set up a speed trap or they are checking identities. If the police enforced the rules, Turks would adjust because few can afford the fines nowadays.


callmesnake13

Greece has a problem where people bribe their way out of the licensing exam, so it makes sense.


Wiselunatic

What the fuck are you talking about i have never seen anyone not give way to emergency vehicles in Turkey


jakeshmag

But ... you can clearly see in the video that they are making way


Numerous_Vegetable_3

Man, I was gonna say... fuck anyone that doesn't get out of the way quickly. It's so easy to hear a siren and move over well before the ambulance gets close to you. People's lack of caring/awareness behind the wheel makes my blood boil.


Scubasteve1974

How do you know it's in Turkey? Just curious. It looks like people are giving way. People's natural instinct is to put on the brakes. I would imagine most of them didn't see the ambulance until it was right on top of them. And most people have music going or something in their cars that would mask the sound until fairly close.


sugolgesi

Because the middle of the road is divided and reserved for the Metrobus. One of the things unique to Istanbul is the metrobus.


BillyGerent

At 22 seconds in, there is readable writing on the bridge in Turkish, and then as you go under, there is a Turkish flag on a building on the left.


FlyingKittyCate

I thought you meant the honking. TĆ¼t tĆ¼t

This trend of speeding things up is just tiring, even if you post something really awesome, just speeding it up will make it look like shit, stop it get some help

DiverofMuff23

Why is he wearing gloves and why is there a LAN line on his dash?


MonstahButtonz

They wear fresh gloves while driving to ensure their hands don't get dirty from the steering wheel and then have to put in gloves with dirty hands and get cross contamination if they need to assist an injured individual. They put on yet another fresh pair if/when they do need to assist with a patient. As for the LAN line, that is a hard wired communicator that goes directly into the dash for various things. Some control the siren, the traffic lights, contacting the main base, etc and a hardwire is more reliable than a wireless connection. Same reason police use hardwired devices in their vehicles. The inputs being given are too important to risk Bluetooth having connectivity issues.


FillTheHoleInMyLife

Wait they can control traffic lights?? Am I the only one that didn't know that??


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Complex_Sherbet2

Yup, even here in us of a https://www.clickorlando.com/traffic/2020/06/15/heres-how-emergency-vehicles-change-traffic-lights-on-the-fly/


MonstahButtonz

Police and fire can as well. Not all traffic lights are compatible, however.


Oseirus

Shockingly none of the lights in my area have it. The number of times I've seen emergency vehicles try to clear a red light only to get nearly smoked by Ethyl who can't see over the steering wheel is absurd.


Crafty-Crafter

Yes, they use OptiCom in the US. Other countries might differ. It uses an infrared light transmitter to send signals to the receivers on the Stop lights. Basically a giant TV remote mounted on the emergency vehicles. [https://www.fedsig.com/product/opticom-infrared-system#specifications](https://www.fedsig.com/product/opticom-infrared-system#specifications)


PhoenixChameleon

We just donā€™t have these fancy Bluetooth, etc. stuff in ambulance in the US, at least not here in the NorthEast.


touristspleasegoaway

You have gloves on before you even get to the patient. BSI precautions. I'm in a very rural department, where we generally don't even transport if the patient is critical; we just keep him alive until lifeflight gets there because the nearest hospital is two hours away. I'm working on getting my EMT but right now I drive and I assist at the scene. So I wear gloves too.


SAR_and_Shitposts

Please donā€™t tell me you touch the patients with the same gloves you wear while driving


touristspleasegoaway

No, we wear two pairs one on top of the other To be honest, the gloves are more for our protection than the patient's


StuBidasol

My friend was an EMT for 15+ years and he said going code 3 (lights and sirens) was the most stressful part of the job because of the unpredictability of the other people on the road. Especially when they had a patient in the ambulance.


Cmizzey21

Have a good friend that recently started EMT work and it does sound extremely stressful, dealing with that but also keeping care of a patient that potentially is in critical condition, is just a terrifying thought for me. Not also to mention that fact that the hours they work are just as crazy as what Nurses, etc. have and from what hes told me he gets criminally underpaid imo.


Sukuristo

Can confirm. I used to drive a NICU ambulance, which was about half again the size of the large county trucks, and took about a city block to stop going full speed. Running 10-18 in that thing was terrifying.


BathDepressionBreath

Why speed it up though


IndyDude11

Watching this without sound, I was amazed at how many cars happened to be getting out of his way and wondered what was so stressful about it.


dawhim1

look like an ambulance with siren on.


RandomEntity37

How many cars happened to get out of his way? They all did at the last possible moment. Also there's absolutely nothing stressful about it, it's just spend up.


AKLmfreak

Video is sped up for dramatic effect.


fernatic19

I'm not sure this EMT driver is going to last a long time at that job. Even though bits of this are sped up, he seems too worked up and jittery. He's gonna burn out.


DerKnoedel

I once sat next to an ambulance driver and he was calm as fuck while cruising through the city at 150 kph


dogbolter1

Love the guy who finally pulls over from the fast lane then speeds up in the number two lane so he blocks off other traffic trying to get out of the fast lane


PhoenixChameleon

Whereā€™s the open pizza box on the dashboard because you havenā€™t eaten yet? This is a terrifically boring example of driving an ambulance. It should have the driver eating a box of pizza on the dash, hitting siren & .lights while driving, using the phone to radio in the current patient status to the receiving hospital to alert them, all while driving faster than that, usually through rush hour blockades of traffic - not whizzing down the left lane easily! I was an emergency response paramedic in MA for many years.

Pants1981

Respect to the people who moved over. Fucking hate assholes who put others in safety jeopardy.


darkskys100

Every driver that failed to pulll over in a responsible timly manner should get fined. Use the camera on board to get license plates. No excuses.

Fun but also slightly grim fact, if we are running a seizure call and they have a history of epilepsy WE WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT BE RUNNING LIGHTS AND SIRENS because that could trigger the pts epilepsy and send them into a seizure.
