A Blog about the different kinds of Emergency Vehicles?

As with all other professionals that are emergency teams, each one is going to have its own specialized vehicle along for its own specific reasons. In the same way that you wouldn't drive a hatchback in the Indy 500, you wouldn't ride a police bicycle to a fire! There are many emergency vehicles to list, but a few different ones are bomb disposal, SWAT vehicles, mountain rescue, search and rescue, hazardous waste materials and police motorcycles!

Some emergency response vehicles are likely to be equipped with EMS gear, EMT supplies or emergency medical supplies such as sonic and visible warning devices such lights and sirens which are designed placed on the vehicle in order to ease along their motility through traffic to reach their specific "landing-place", and to provide protection on the location. Also, depending on certain laws in certain cities and states, you will oftentimes find that local laws that are required for other non-emergency vehicles are going to be "waved off" when it comes to emergency vehicles.

For example, a lot of times you will see an ambulance or fire rescue zooming through red lights! This allowed in most cases! You will also find that there are oftentimes rules in which YOU the civilian must follow when it comes to an emergency vehicle. For instance, in some states if you see or hear an emergency vehicle behind you its required that you pull over on the side of the road, while in other states pulling over for something like this is simply noted as being courteous!
