Been living in that region, went to the University of Maryland; been riding on ambulances while bringing friends to emergency hospital wards. Had the Cadillac ambulance. Was in the years 1961-1963.

Add another vote for both the great camera work and the fantastic usage of the siren (or lack of usage when it was safely possible). Thanks for the ride!
Though the call wall disregarded/canceled this video still shows the dedication of volunteer fireman/forewomen! More revenue must go into the volunteer coffers. .
Luckly 4 out of the 6 ambulances my station has, have two siren speakers so two tone capable and real air horns.... I can make some noise!!! and have been yelled at for it a time or two... oopps can't help it when you have a town full of drunk college kids and its bar closing times lol
@@aviation7374 Whelen is a Siren company. They make Sirens for police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and Lights. They also make Warning sirens for natural disasters.
@@RoyMairuRiley the older I think whelen 295sl or something they used to make cool noises when you pressed buttons fast idk about the newer cencoms and stuff but they sound just ass good
Lol they are hauling ass! Also for the people saying he was overusing the siren he was doing that whenever he was going through stop signs and red lights to let people know there's an ambulance coming so that there wouldn't be an accident. So calm down lol
+Rayana Woods Nahuh. That's what brakes are for. Lights and sirens aren't going to stop the 17 year old texting and driving from nailing you in an intersection because you didn't stop and clear the intersection.
John Goode well that's on that 17 year old. He's the one getting in trouble not the paramedics. So yes that's why they're using their sirens at red lights and stop signs. If you don't stop for them when those lights come on, regardless of what happens, that's on you and it will be a fat ass ticket. So chill out.
An ambulance still has to stop at read lights. It's called a controlled stop. They have to make sure the coast is clear. They just can't go through the lights like that. Sincerely A paramedic of 17 years
if you ever go on a ride along where there is a fire, you should try and catch some footage of it if you can, instead of ending it when you get to the scene.
cool videos i live in wisconsin im on the fd i love it a lot doing a ride along with madison fire department soon i am going to record videos would like some advice
My uncle is a ems supervisor. he makes a lot money but its fun to ride along with him. he let me before i got my phone but now he don't cuz of the hours he works. he works from 5am-5pm sometimes even longer.
Matthew Graham Ambulances don't carry Q sirens. And you're not suppose to have a Q siren in an ambulance at all. Because it's impersonation of a fire truck.
@motionmay What was wrong with it? He blew a couple of reds at potentially unsafe speed, but you can clearly see cross traffic stopped. Driver saw things that aren't shown on the video, so you can't say it was dangerous. He has 180 degree FOV, you have around 60.
Ricky Rescue should pay more attention to safe driving and less attention to his epileptic siren skills or he's going to end up killing somebody. I like how he almost came to a complete stop for a green light but scarcely slowed down for the red lights.
@ officernelson.. I will have to also say that this response is more dangerous then is needed. The law states an emergency vehicle must stop at ALL intersection (red or yellow) and clear lane by lane at a stop then craw. (paraphrasing ofcourse) but for the most part the siren use is effective
To the guy using the siren. You do realize you're not suppose to have that siren up to high decibel because that's a little excessive. Here's a little piece of advice. Don't crank the siren up to high decibel. That is not good for your ears. That high decibel siren could destroy your eardrum/eardrums.
I'll flip it to yelp coming up on an intersection and blip the wail a few times, lay on the air horn, switch to phaser going through the intersection (which, by the way, I STOP!!! at red lights - that's the only way to clear an intersection), but if I were this guy's partner I'd have a flipping come apart on him. "Quit fucking playing with the siren!"
They run it in different cadence coming up to intersections to get peoples attention who can't see them and down main roads to warn drivers that might be coming into the area. Standard procedures.
Judging by the comments i must be seeing a completely different video because i saw one of the most dangerous and irresponsible code 3 driving ive seen in a long time this driver is going to get somone kiled!!

I'm just crazy about sirens, and since I'm a junior firefighter, sirens are music to my ears.
Lol they are hauling ass! Also for the people saying he was overusing the siren he was doing that whenever he was going through stop signs and red lights to let people know there's an ambulance coming so that there wouldn't be an accident. So calm down lol

Anabanana96 Actually it would be on the ambulance crew for not acting with due regard which is required by law.
Steven Peltier Still, the ambulance didn’t act with due regard.
An ambulance still has to stop at read lights. It's called a controlled stop. They have to make sure the coast is clear. They just can't go through the lights like that.

Excellent and brilliant video. Good camera work. Really shows the atmosphere of a night drive.
Nice siren!
great work...nice and safe hot trip to hospital and nice siren work!
Nice ride :)
I always enjoy a fast SAFE run, well done guys !
Wow, the American dream: to completely blow through red signals
I built a model firetruck that is from college park. I wasn't sure if it existed, now I know it does.
I like the red light camera flash at 4:35
if you ever go on a ride along where there is a fire, you should try and catch some footage of it if you can, instead of ending it when you get to the scene.
Nice siren work (:
at 2:50...... great job clearing that intersection....
That driver is a boss
i love those lights =)
cool videos i live in wisconsin im on the fd i love it a lot doing a ride along with madison fire department soon i am going to record videos would like some advice
Please make more videos of responses of the Ambulance
Awesome
Hey just nice Code 2 on residential and code 3 on streets.
My uncle is a ems supervisor. he makes a lot money but its fun to ride along with him. he let me before i got my phone but now he don't cuz of the hours he works. he works from 5am-5pm sometimes even longer.
@nielssietse No we don't. This one in particular, yes.
filmst du jedes video selbst? oder bekommst du das von verschiedenen personen?
U need to get a Q on that thing

@@jonahreid7323 who lied to you😂😂 many ambulances in PG county have Qs
That van Powers a 7.3 Liter Powerstroke V8 Diesel.
What siren model is this?
Whelen Alpha Siren
Prince George's county
Holy crap...Did you guy's drive to a hopital in a different city...lol

Legally, all emergency personnel are required to stop at the Red Lights and at max they can roll it.
Mihir Kansagra Actually this differs state to state
If they are going lights and sirens Aka Code 3 and blowing the air horn they can go through it no matter what they don’t want the patent too die
whats year is this rig. It looks quite old from the switches.
@mendylitz
1994
what PGFD?? i know FD is fire dept. but im not shure what PG is???
@penguin2254 Whelen 295HF100 or 295HFS1A if its 200 watts
This just happens over here by we're i live
Ambulance looks like a MedTec.
I love the. More coding At 8:22

I hope the crew really enjoys playing "musical siren" because you're probably only increasing the chance of a collision.
Anyone have any idea what siren that is?
Wail, yelp and priority I believe
they need an opticomm beacon
They do...none of the intersections in PG county have them
i think: abuse of siren... nice vid
To the guy using the siren. You do realize you're not suppose to have that siren up to high decibel because that's a little excessive. Here's a little piece of advice.

@MattTheComputerGeek seriously!!

but playing with the siren is the fun part
John Goode my partner and I try to create music with the siren
🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
I hate running calls all the way across town
Ahh another medic run
It took u 2 hr holy shit
They responded to a different county
Erm... I'm seeing 9 minutes 59 seconds, but hey, you do you.
Why all the siren work with no cars around???
They run it in different cadence coming up to intersections to get peoples attention who can't see them and down main roads to warn drivers that might be coming into the area. Standard procedures.
It's the car you DON'T see when an accident occurs. The ones you can see aren't very important.
lol i don't get why does some ambulances beep at nothing when there isn't no cars around
bc theres no such thing as no cars around. just bc you dont see any dont mean there isnt
Just saying.. didn't think of that
its ok. its also a good thing of having in mind while even though you're the only one on the road/freeway.
Ya incase if there was a ride beside the ambulance and u didn't even know
Very good driver. I wish ppl would pull for my fire department, ppl just look at you like your stupid....
No he wasn't. Didn't exercise due regard
would hate to live around there, excessive use of siren
Judging by the comments i must be seeing a completely different video because i saw one of the most dangerous and irresponsible code 3 driving ive seen in a long time this driver is going to get somone kiled!!
alright Karen
Calm your shit, Doris. We didn't ask for any armchair experts at this time.
whats the siren used in the ambulance?
