[GayBoyRunning]

Err it seems the 2nd police car has a green light bar or i must be going colour blind o.o

[taylorbradshaw]

@GayBoyRunning It's just the way the light showed up on camera.

[ImRatherTall]

@GayBoyRunning

the 2nd car is a paramedic! (notice the green and yellow squares, police are blue and yellow, fire red and yellow)

[GayBoyRunning]

@ImRatherTall no not that one thats the 3rd car there is one between the 1st one & the one ur talking about.

[ImRatherTall]

@GayBoyRunning oh that one, (i thought you meant 2nd car after the van lol)

its probably either the lighting, or the actual plastic cover? i dont know really

[ImRatherTall]

4:04 I love that tone, dont know why, its slightly different to others in the UK!

[MadPropsToTheHood]

@ImRatherTall It's Premier Hazard whereas most UK cars use Whelen. The same siren as the London Ambulances actually.

@MadPropsToTheHood

thanks for the info!

[POLICEMADgeko7844]

well done to catch so many - i usually have the camera in my pocket, hear a siren, and its about 3 streets away, so well done

[TheMtotheArvin]

war da überhaupt irgendein nicht Deutsches Auto

[deltic055]

@TheMtotheArvin (Babel translation) Schauen Sie wieder, mein Freund. 2 BMW-Polizeiwagen, 1 BMW-Motorrad und Volkswagen-Krankenwagen. But I do agree that Nederlands and Deutsche emergency services lights and siren combinations are more effective than those flashing/wailing American things. But most important, drivers on continent react and get out of the way of emergency vehicles! We are too slow to move over here in UK.

Sehr schön! : )

...das meiste natürlich gute, deutsche Autos. ;-)

[yuabonuga]

lol opel ^^

[HarvestGreat]

Ich glaub' die Engländer schwörn auf Deutsche Qualitätsautomobile...

[elcomcf]

I hate the rotating beacons on some of the old met astra's ....

[jonjeny]

@elcomcf i hate the retro siren sound from 2:51..u mostly hear it in russia germany or some where out foreign like that

[elcomcf]

@jonjeny The hi-lo's , not fond of them meself.....they dont sound like you want past as much as the wail or yelp !

[eveningniteshade]

Much MUCH prefer the understated blue lights of euro emergency vehicles, who use sirens when necessary rather than RIDICULOUS red/white/blue xmas tree lights of americans and their full time use of sirens.

It's about respect for the community.

[SpartanML]

@eveningniteshade Wow way to make such an epic generalization. US emergency services Do Not use sirens all the time as you claim. Your comment is in poor taste to say the least.

[birdy711]

@SpartanML yes...i like ur response to him

[stealth1692]

@eveningniteshade the emergency vehicles here in the uk sometimes use there sirens it depends if it past 11 o clock at night they have to turn it off in streets

[quatlen]

@eveningniteshade Emergency lighting on emergency vehicles is designed to make a statement. It isn't really appropriate to describe emergency vehicle lighting as an understatement, that is a contradiction to the point of them and not to mention its common enough to find emergency vehicles who only use blue lights in America. However I do accept the fact that Emergency vehicles in America run their sirens more often.

[04smallmj]

@eveningniteshade I just don't like the inconsistent mix of colours used in the US, it varies so much...

[millsy1804]

I wish I could live in London

[ImRatherTall]

You were actually on the scene at 2:20

I guess thats one way of getting a shot of an ambulance! lol
