This clips show so much double standard, You need to include more ASIA countries like Malaysia 🇲🇾 Japan 🇯🇵 or South Korea, this country is also so responsive to any emergency sirens 🚨 🚨..
As a french person, i can tell you that even if you live in a big city like Paris, you have to move when you hear the sirens. It could be firemen, ambulance or cops. They don't care if they have an accident with you, you're wrong, because you must let them pass, it's in the law. It's one of the first things that you learn in France when you want to drive.
Izumi Hak same. I don’t think I’ve ever seen what happened in Manhattan where I live. We always get to the side the moment we hear the sirens. Though I’ve never seen that much traffic either...
@@venus9604 I though that too, like in the part of the US where i live police are probably going to show up in your house with a citation to court for not letting an ambulance pass.
Mainland European sirens are earrape I was in Rome and Barcelona last year and every time an emergency vehicle drove past me I had permanent hearing damage
You know the difference between Germany and the USA/India/China is also in how the ambulance drivers act. When my sister is driving an ambulance and she'd be in a situation like in Idia. She'd just go straight over the sidewalk. In the USA she would tunnel through the vehicles blocking her on the sides and not really care for any scrapes she might do. Over here in Europe, if you don't make way for the ambulance, the ambulance will often make you give way.
There are certain cities in India that care less about ambulance, fire trucks, or any emergency vehicles. In my city, an ambulance can take up to 20 mins to cover a distance of 4-5 km.
I'm just imagining the poor person in that one German car that was freaking out trying to get off the way. Like " OMG OMG where do I go, I can't fit, ahhhhhhh"
@@elisadreamer9594 I don't think so, they were swerving all over the place looking for a spot to pull in and honestly just seemed pretty panicked. Probably a new driver that didn't really know how best to react.
@@decus9544 I drove once with a car for like 5 minutes and I would be able to do this, that's not so difficult and even when this person still was learning than there should be someone else in the car to help him/her.
Some commenters here have been saying that Munich gridlocks very easily just like Manhattan, and the examples shown were only the highways and not the cobblestoned or very narrow city or village streets.
@@MainMite06 lol I follow this comment section for a long time already and I never read sth about Munich so far. Although Munich has the most traffic-prone main road in the country, there's no really a problem of gridlock traffic at all. Cobblestone street? How is the street surface relevant in that topic at all?
EnjoyFirefighting - International Emergency Response Videos Name me one street and its city that is 4-lane cobblestoned. I know Russia and Central asian nations do have alot of unpaved 4-6 lane gravel streets
In Canada, if you block an ambulance for too long, they will just take your plates and report you to the police. Most people just pull over to the side and clear the way, though.
My neighbour got a $1200 fine for not moving over for a firetruck in Hamilton, Ont. He was (and still is) quite an AH. He didn't think he had to move because it was a firetruck. Apparently he then immediately followed it so he can cut through traffic. =/ But yes, Canadians are usually incredibly good for moving over.
I'm from Michigan at age 19 I was in Canada nearly every weekend, and I never saw anyone block an ambulance even if they had to drive into oncoming traffic, I love how Canadians care for each other. I am sure there are Canadians who don't but I have never seen them.
I bet if you use a ak 47 shooting on people there iam sure of if it they won be stubborn to stay were there are if someone is dying they should just shoot idiots like that
2:50 I know exactly where the USA “unknown “ place is located. It’s 7th Ave South and Clarkson St. in Manhattan - Greenwich Village. I used to work near there, that’s why I recognized it. 😃
Fizzling_Fire12 To be fair, look at the gridlock - it’s not easy for hundreds of cars that are already tightly packed to move to the side to let the ambulance pass, probably why it takes so long.
Carm_ Gacha NYC is America's most populated city, And the one city that many/most foreigners associate with America, for how many foreign tourists fly over to visit. But the problem is: *NYC is an island based city, that's very small, ,and extremely urbanized* The contiguous 48 are a giant continental territory that's mostly suburban
Surely, the video from Poland is old but an ambulance is an utmost priority here in the heaviest possible traffic. Those who don’t yield are considered offenders (in non-legal terms as well).
In cities since always. But when it comes to traffic/accident on highways it wasn't so from the beginning. People just didn't have such experience in 1980' and '90. But, honestly saying, we've applied ,,Rettungsweg" on highways from German drivers and it works preety well right now.

Das ist immer so, und wann nicht, da kann Man ohne Zahne das Fahrt enden, oder später auf dem Parkplatz ein paar löcher in Reifen zu haben, wann ist Man ,,spoted" als ,,dieses Idiot, wer hat den weg für Rettungsdienst blockiert".

E.V. Townsend it’s like that in Canada, we move out of the way. In Texas apparently both sides of the road must stop & let the emergency vehicles pass.
First one is definitely not China. They don't drive on the left side of the road and the signage isn't in Chinese. I'd rather say it looks more like Malaysia or Indonesia.
Sadly not you could stand next to a drowning man and hold a life vest it’s only murder if you take the life vest away from the man you could even sit and laugh while holding the vest while he dies
@@isabellamerrigan8074 In what country?? Unless your own life is/would be at risk, you must always try to save a person in need, otherwise you get accused of "omission of rescue". At least, that's the law in Europe.
Andrea Pazzaglia nope in America if I was at a pool and saw a man drowning and I had a float I could stand and listen to him screaming for help as long as I don’t make things worst example if he has a float and I take it away or if I hold his head down otherwise I could just sit back and watch honestly America is fucked up
I used to be a firefighter in the UK, almost every call we got someone who turned the steering into the kerb thinking they were getting out of our way, but they forgot there's another half a car behind them! I noticed some in this video doing something similar, totally oblivious to the fact that they were still blocking the road. Driving lessons should include how to deal with emergency vehicles, a lack of training results in panic for too many drivers!
I absolutely agree! When I was a young driver and oblivious that loud music while driving might actually cost someone's life, I was waiting at a red light and heard the ambulance behind me way too late. I panicked (I really don't want to be the cause of someone dying), hit the gas and made a sharp right turn just at the time when the right lane got a green light. Thankfully the car on my right saw me just in time to hit the brakes or he would have hit me as I suddenly swerved in front of him when clearing my lane for the ambulance. Considering we have to do a course in first aid, do a bunch of theory and practice *and* do a safety course (also theory + practice) after getting a license, you'd think they'd put a minimum of 30-minute course on how to handle emergency vehicles somewhere in all that theory at the very least. Our government here has a .gov page "suggest to the government" where citizens can make suggestions about changing/adding new laws. And if your suggestion gets enough support from other citizens, the representatives will discuss it in one of their sessions. Reading your post gave me the idea to post a suggestion to include dealing with emergency vehicles in driving courses.
I actually had an ambulance in my practical driving test in Germany, which is one if the rare cases were the examinator is allowed to help you out a bit. (Slowly moving the car onto the sidewalk at a red light would have been an instant fail obviously, if he had not told me to do so.) In theory, I had already known how to act (because of the theoretical part of getting your licence), but it was my first real encounter with that situation.
how did north america try tho? everyone just remained as was and did't even attempt to make space. EDIT: as far as I see it there's plenty of space to both sides. Driving up that close to the vehicle in front, that it's "bumper-to-bumper" that you can't make room for an ambulance, is a mistake in and of itself. Yes, I know that the footage shown was just of the United States (and in that regard only New York, though I wouldn't have been that specific, even though I can see how very different the whole situation could resolve in even this very same city), not the whole north america. I just didn't bother to correct like some oh so smartasses apparently do (not referring to those who kept it at least polite).
if ever I'd get an accident, I'll go to Poland or germany. if I'm dying in india might as well don't get me an ambulance, let me die in peace than hearing those beeping noises and still die
Once when I was walking in Delhi, there was a huge traffic jam on a street to enter a Mall! And there was an Ambulance blowing its siren, waiting to pass the people who wouldn't budge because they valued their parking spot more than someone's life! I asked this mall traffic guy to do something, but he replied "They (the ambulance) are probably faking the siren just to get by". I was horrified. I told the guy he has to give the ambulance the benefit of the doubt! The only city in India where I have seen cars actually move to let an ambulance pass by is Bangalore. So I just wanted to say try not to be in an ambulance situation in India (:'))
As a Polish guy let me tell you, it's not that hard to make space. Even in worst traffic, you somehow always find space to let the ambulance through. I can't imagine standing with the ambulance stuck behind you, and hear the death clock of their patient waiting ticking away at you.
@Ben Davidson not clogging up intersections would be a good starting point. I don't know if it's dumb drivers or dumb road rules, but you never get that in UK/Europe. Look at the taxi driving in, how is that going to help the situation. Just coz he has a green light doesn't mean going through is the best option
@@adamzbucki4736 It's literally illegal in the EU. It is a question in driving tests. If you believe you may have to stop in the intersection, you stop before, until you have a clear way.
@Jasmin Hamid yeah i know bro awareness is not so much in india but you know the southern part of india is not like this nd not every person is like this
@@a.florschutzcamplin9011 Nein, das wäre ja die schlimmste Lösung 😂 Die Linke nach links, weil dort kein Platz mehr ist. Die rechte auf den Standstreifen bzw so weit wie möglich nach rechts und die mittlere auf den rechten Streifen bzw so weit es geht. Left lane goes left. There wouldn't be enough space for another lane so the right lane has to move as far to the right as they can and the middle lane too. The shoulder lane gives enough space to do it.
I‘m from Germany and seeing how people in other countries react makes me sad. Imagine you beeing in the ambulance car or one of your family/friends. Btw you have to pay money if you don‘t get out of the way fast.
I've heard stereotypes about German people being very strict , efficient and organized... As If that was a bad thing. Here in Mexico we could learn a thing or a hundred from their culture about getting things done.
Im from the us and here yes people react like a person should we move out of the way and let them pass its ussualy like that clip of germany but more crowded cities have a harder time of moving. Places like New York LA and other big cities have that problem but otherwise most cities and towns will part way and let them pass (my city Albuquerque in New Mexico is polite and will imedately move). Its just a matter if they have space to move or just don't care.
Same here in Poland, you have to pay a fine if you don't let the ambulance pass by. It's also one of the laws in the driving codex. Fun fact, ambulance is authorized to smash your mirror etc. If you don't move out of it's way
Yeah what about the Falschparker? Someone died in a burning building AGAIN because of illegal parked cars. Same mentality as those who don't let an ambulance pass. But still much better than many countries. No empathy at. Don't let it consume you.
Learning how to response to an ambulance is part of the training to get your drivers license in the Netherlands. In Germany they are better at it to be honest, the will provide a free lane whenever there is congestion, for emergency vehicles, even if there are none. Very polite and very considerate.
That is great! We had a short lesson on how to deal with emergency vehicles, but nothing substantial. If you ask me, every new student should get that lesson directly from someone who drives or has driven an ambulance/fire truck. I think it could go a long way in ensuring safety in emergency situations. Just a couple of weeks ago several cars were waiting at a green light on a crossroads in the city center because we all heard the siren. Then out of the blue, the driver on the opposing side suddenly forgets why everyone is standing still, hits the gas and almost crashes into the ambulance that just passed the traffic light on his right. He then moved away in the same lane the ambulance was going and slowed it down for another 100m, until the idiot driver finally found room to clear the way. I was literally screaming in my car, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.🤦♂
In Poland we have TV commercials specificaly made to teach people to make room when the ambulance is driving,because it might as well be their family member or a friend fighting for their life in that ambulance.They make a commercial and air it,and after some time,when the problem arises again,they make another ones
@@starkermann8119 When it comes to infrastructure and things like this one with the ambulances I'll agree,but I wouldn't say the same about the polish goverment (that's my opinion,you can like it or not,idc)
We have the German system in Belgium now too, when traffic slows down, we already prepare a passing lane for ambulance by left cars hugging left and right cars hugging right, so if there is an emergency vehicle, it can get through
Same here in Norway, even though it's not "automatic" yet. It's also great for recovery vehicles. It can be a big problem on motorways when the ambulance and police gets straight trough, but the recovery vehicle is stuck in traffic.
Perhaps while you are at it, fix the road surface somewhat?😅😉As soon as I rode in to Belgium years ago I thaught: Shit I have a flat tire! 😆 Love from your neighbour 🌷🌷
@@MokumHVBHaha, painfully true! It's uncanny when driving from the Netherlands into Belgium you don't need to watch the road sign, just listen to the noise your car makes, once it' goes from smooth to very rough, welcome, you've come to Flanders. 😅That said, I've driven around in LA a few years back, and they makes our roads look like yours in comparison. 🤣
Last Sunday I had some heavy traffics and full traffic stops in Germany, was on the left side and pulled over as much to the left as I could. Everyone behind me followed this, most in the front also did. Just one guy in front of me did the exact opposite and was as much to the right as possible. Those are the as*holes that having trouble if emergency vehicle comes suddenly from the backside.
Same here in Slovenia, but not all drivers are aware of this just yet, that's why they founded a non-profit organization called "Rescue Lane" which sends drivers free stickers for the back of their car to spread awareness on the road. I think all Union countries are striving to make this a permanent part of the driving culture. It only takes a little bit of effort and awareness from each driver to make a _Rettungsgasse_ and it can literally save lives!
@@jack_harper i think they have rules for vehicle speed. It's very slow indeed. But it's also one of the reasons japan has quite low rate for car accidents. But I'm not really sure, correct me if I'm wrong.
Mark Jones Not really. I have seen this Asian version of this video. In fact, many are also good such as Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and so on. And one more thing, in most countries I have traveled so far. Asians are the friendliest I have ever met.
Yeah it should be but way too often it doesn’t work. In germany you find videos of ambulance or firefighters having to stop in the middle of the road and get out just to tell people to move the fuck away. And there are also people who want to abuse the the cleared road which often leads to blocking the emergency cars behind the first one.
In Germany we already make a "Rettungsgasse" (a path for any potential ambulance), when we have an upcoming traffic jam. This is also something you are teached in driving school. If you don't understand and follow the rules, you will not obtain your license.
Why is everyone like "German ambulance sounds so scary" i dont really know but to me Indian one is like a siren you should evacuate when you hear it, German one is normal
No the German one I think it's an firetruck not am ambulance but the rules are the same for ambulance and firetrucks, if you don't make the road free for them you get a fine
I live in Poland and there's not even a situation someone didnt make the space for ambulance. Everyone do that, no matter what and who, it's a thing I am proud of.
:))) i live in Bangladesh in city called barisal they will give u space if ambulance siren happens :)) & i like it good to know Europe gives the whole road :)
Basically, this is the story of how two Indycar drivers died: *Dan Wheldon* (was unconsious after hitting the fence and died on the way to hospital via helicopter), and Eddie Sachs (was alive after his accident, but his injuries were severe enough for him to die at the hospital)
Its getting even better in europe cuz in most countries we are now taught to make a clear path in advance when there is traffic. So that if an ambulance would come trough it already has space
In many European countries, it is forbidden by law to block the road for an emergency vehicle, and that you can temporarily break any driving laws if it helps in leaving space for the emergency car
the laws are different from one country to another one ... thus in some countries you have to pull over and stop, in others you don't have to do so but only clear the path, and in some places you have to pull over before being able to see or hear an approaching emergency vehicle
I'm not sure about all states but it's the same in California. It's just that a lot of time there's no space in big cities for all the cars to get out of the way
Emergency situation faced by ambulance driver contrywise China : Bus will sidetrack you to hit the divider India : Cars will start racing with you USA : Nobody's gonna move. It's time to rest Poland : GTA mode activated Japan : It's a great sunny day. We can go as if nothing is happening Germany : The streets are ours... We are the king
Okay, Number 1. "China" is actually Jakarta Indonesia indicated by the left hand traffic and the Euro-style liscence plates Number 2. *Both USA clips were set in tiny & densely packed Manhattan NYC* where it's easy for traffic to gridlock, where as most cities in USA are suburban & most people do move over whenever sirens are heard! Number 3. Not all people in India are this mindless about ambulances & certain people in certain cities do move over
The Germans as efficient as ever. Hats off to them, but there is some comfort for the rest of the world to know that even in Germany there's always one 7:07!
@Haus iirc there has been an accident in the Germany clip, and emergency vehicles were already at the spot, and the traffic was already stopped, so the cars were clearing the path for emergency vehicles because they had went through already. The cam ambulance is just late and arriving to a clear path
Everyone in comments: Scared of the German siren Most European countries: Hey that sounds familiar Also from my own experience whenever we hear a Ambulane, fire truck or police we always stop and make place in Belgium like Germany. People blaming it on "populated cities" shouldn't be complaining since this video and my own experience is from hour long traffic jams on high ways
I mean, here in Germany you actually have to pay high fees if you don't move outta the way when you hear the siren of an ambulance, fire truck or police car. And since it is possible even in cities there really is no excuse of why other countries aren't able to do just that too
@@mr.spaceaids5379 Also upgrade the ambulance to an anti-zombie car so that you can just slam through all cars in your way.And then hire a psychopath to drive.
As an American, i have only seen someone fail to move for an ambulance once and a cop pulled them over and chewed them out harder than a mother to their drunk son.
@@alejandroroldan6398 "Specially in the US." You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. The two clips were in Manhattan, the most densely populated area in the U.S. The majority of America is suburban, with plenty of space to move, which is what we do.
Αλέξανδρος Roλδαν sorry that my fellow Americans roasted you. I was gonna say the same thing as them but more polite lol. I live in suburbia in CT and we definitely go to the side to let the ambulance through, but I’ve never seen an ambulance on a highway so that would be interesting to see here in my state. But I thought it was interesting that all the cars completely stopped in Germany. here we go to the side but keep going (unless we cant keep moving lol) but it’s just cool that everyone in Germany worked together since I know even in my state there are some people who don’t care.
Looks more like "how OVERPOPULATED CITIES react to an ambulance" because where I live in Michigan, people usually pull over to the side of the road and clear the way
I live in north Carolina and if there is an emergency vehicle you have to pull over to the right and you have to let the ambulance go regardless of if it is your turn or the traffic lights say so.
I live in a city in the US and I was in stop and go traffic one day and I see the people in front of me moving to the side and I immediately check my mirrors and see the ambulance coming, so I move to the side as well. In the middle of bumper to bumper traffic everyone found a space to move their car out if the way. It’s not that hard.
I'm American who lives in USA, & I'm going to tell to you that most normal Americans pull over for emegency vehicles whenever space is available. The American ambulance clips in this video were filmed in Manhattan island, New York City, Manhattan & the rest of NYC is known to gridlock easily as the tiny islands have small roads that barely leave any room for HOV lanes. The USA ambulance clip demonstrated who easy it is to be caught in NYC gridlock.
I live in the United States and I wasn't alarmed by the German or other European countries ambulance sirens. I would have moved out of the way as best I could.
Mainland suburban America isn't *anything* relatable to Manhattan nor anything else to NYC. There's usually lots of room to move over, or the ambulance gets alternative routes.
Dont see anything wrong in the reaction in manhattan...you cant really give way immediately to ambulance in a traffic like that...atleast cars give way when they have chance
Exactly. Gridlocked traffic in New York where there is no where to pull over is not a very fair representation. Poland was light traffic compared to New York and the Germany clip seems obvious that there were previous emergency vehicles making paths ahead for there to be that much of a corridor created in advance.
The one from US that says unknown they were stuck in traffic they really cant do nothing about it but the Manhattan one what i do and from what I've seen in Texas we cross the red light or try to move to a different lane to let the ambulance pass
In Germany you actually have to clear a path for the ambulance even if there is no ambulance coming. You can lose your license if you are in the way of an emergency vehicle
@@elemwitt4604 you have to clear a path even if there is no ambulance (for example in a traffic jam you need to keep a gap open between the left most and the lane next to it). Although people don't always do it perfectly it has become better in recent years
I thought it was common sense to move when you hear siren car. In Europe it is common. I'm from Estonia and ambulance sounds like German one. People pull to the side even when it's dangerous and have attitude like "Help the person in need meanwhile I'm almost crashing into lake that's next to the road... Don't worry about me I'll swim"
Well in new York it's usually so busy there's traffic on the sidewalks. But most people move out of the way since it's a law of course. But you do get those arrogant karens and kyles who think the road is there's and only there life matters
If you dont follow the instructions on the signs " how to make up space" ( in Germany its called "Rettungsgasse", a Term in english for that can be a kind of "ermegency path"), which are everywhere on the Autobahn, you get very high fined.
I'm spanish living in the UK. In both countries the ambulance rarely has to slow down because everybody makes way for them in the moment we hear them in the distance. I call it being civilised.
In America, we also move to the side, for fire trucks, police, or ambulances, I think it's more of a problem in major cities because I've never seen people not move out of the way.
@@dr.wallacebreen3859 To be fair to the motorists shown in that American city, they didn’t have much in the way of options as to how to make a space. Here in Britain we do our very best to get enough room for them. There are videos from the European continent, Germany in particular, where the entire crowded roadway parts as if it were The Second Coming. Its heartbreakingly lovely to see.
I live in Berlin Germany and You’re right an ambulance always gets space to drive through. I am shocked to see that it’s not like that in other countries. It tells everything about the level of the minds of people.
I love how all the Americans are so defensive, as you can see in the video they drive selfishly. But all the people in the comments try to make excuses for them and justify their behviour out of national pride.. Literally the reason there is an issue. Ironic.
In Ireland, when there’s an ambulance behind you and the sirens are going off then you have to move to the side of the road and some people would say prayers as well when the ambulance passes for the patient. Well that’s what we do where I’m from anyways. :)
Some countries are very inexperienced to car culture and that inexperience shows that these nations don't know how to build, educate nor plan emergency vehicle routes.
@@MainMite06 It's a waste of productive space , especially in large cities like New York , LA , Hong Kong , Singapore , Beijing , and etc. The government's main goal for roads is to make their citizens Mobility to be as high as possible to increase productivity an extra lane taken out could cost more money thank you think We all should just learn from Poland and Germany
One of my worst 911 calls was a 5 year old hit by a car in front of her mother. She was screaming in one ear to hurry up and the medics were in the other saying they were delayed because no one would get out of the way.
Imagine GUYS when the hell did I say I don’t care about wearing a mask? I’m talking about how most the US pulls over for an ambulance. Get the fuck out of here.
Imagine GUYS Wow had to delete your last reply? Pussy. Majority of Americans pull over for emergency vehicles so you’re wrong right there. And the only thing wrong with America right now is ignorant people going around calling everything racist when it’s not.
Imagine GUYS The video is about an Ambulance, not COVID. Yes COVID is bad here but there a hundreds of thousands of false cases. Many states just admitted to counting other illnesses and deaths as COVID.

In Canada, if you block an ambulance for too long, they will just take your plates and report you to the police. Most people just pull over to the side and clear the way, though.
My neighbour got a $1200 fine for not moving over for a firetruck in Hamilton, Ont. He was (and still is) quite an AH. He didn't think he had to move because it was a firetruck. Apparently he then immediately followed it so he can cut through traffic. =/
But yes, Canadians are usually incredibly good for moving over.
I'm from Michigan at age 19 I was in Canada nearly every weekend, and I never saw anyone block an ambulance even if they had to drive into oncoming traffic, I love how Canadians care for each other. I am sure there are Canadians who don't but I have never seen them.

Surely, the video from Poland is old but an ambulance is an utmost priority here in the heaviest possible traffic. Those who don’t yield are considered offenders (in non-legal terms as well).
In cities since always. But when it comes to traffic/accident on highways it wasn't so from the beginning. People just didn't have such experience in 1980' and '90. But, honestly saying, we've applied ,,Rettungsweg" on highways from German drivers and it works preety well right now.

I used to be a firefighter in the UK, almost every call we got someone who turned the steering into the kerb thinking they were getting out of our way, but they forgot there's another half a car behind them! I noticed some in this video doing something similar, totally oblivious to the fact that they were still blocking the road.
Driving lessons should include how to deal with emergency vehicles, a lack of training results in panic for too many drivers!
I absolutely agree! When I was a young driver and oblivious that loud music while driving might actually cost someone's life, I was waiting at a red light and heard the ambulance behind me way too late. I panicked (I really don't want to be the cause of someone dying), hit the gas and made a sharp right turn just at the time when the right lane got a green light.
Thankfully the car on my right saw me just in time to hit the brakes or he would have hit me as I suddenly swerved in front of him when clearing my lane for the ambulance.
Considering we have to do a course in first aid, do a bunch of theory and practice *and* do a safety course (also theory + practice) after getting a license, you'd think they'd put a minimum of 30-minute course on how to handle emergency vehicles somewhere in all that theory at the very least.
Our government here has a .gov page "suggest to the government" where citizens can make suggestions about changing/adding new laws. And if your suggestion gets enough support from other citizens, the representatives will discuss it in one of their sessions. Reading your post gave me the idea to post a suggestion to include dealing with emergency vehicles in driving courses.
I actually had an ambulance in my practical driving test in Germany, which is one if the rare cases were the examinator is allowed to help you out a bit. (Slowly moving the car onto the sidewalk at a red light would have been an instant fail obviously, if he had not told me to do so.)
In theory, I had already known how to act (because of the theoretical part of getting your licence), but it was my first real encounter with that situation.
My dad's advice for these situations is that: "You never know when you will be the one on the back of the ambulance."

That reminds of this ambulance logic in GTA video where the drivers just all drive off the bridges for the ambulance in GTA San Andreas
Then what about Canada
Africa: what is ambulance
how did north america try tho? everyone just remained as was and did't even attempt to make space.
EDIT: as far as I see it there's plenty of space to both sides. Driving up that close to the vehicle in front, that it's "bumper-to-bumper" that you can't make room for an ambulance, is a mistake in and of itself.
Yes, I know that the footage shown was just of the United States (and in that regard only New York, though I wouldn't have been that specific, even though I can see how very different the whole situation could resolve in even this very same city), not the whole north america. I just didn't bother to correct like some oh so smartasses apparently do (not referring to those who kept it at least polite).
As a German I am rarely particularly proud of my country. Except for this time. That fills me with some sort of happiness and pride that we do this.

you don‘t even have to call the ambulance, it will never arrive
Once when I was walking in Delhi, there was a huge traffic jam on a street to enter a Mall! And there was an Ambulance blowing its siren, waiting to pass the people who wouldn't budge because they valued their parking spot more than someone's life!
I asked this mall traffic guy to do something, but he replied "They (the ambulance) are probably faking the siren just to get by".
I was horrified. I told the guy he has to give the ambulance the benefit of the doubt!
The only city in India where I have seen cars actually move to let an ambulance pass by is Bangalore.
So I just wanted to say try not to be in an ambulance situation in India (:'))
Australia is like Poland too
Amost every country in Europe has that. So we're good.
As a Polish guy let me tell you, it's not that hard to make space. Even in worst traffic, you somehow always find space to let the ambulance through. I can't imagine standing with the ambulance stuck behind you, and hear the death clock of their patient waiting ticking away at you.
In Slovenia we make space for them at all locations, at all times... Yes, also tunnels.
@Ben Davidson not clogging up intersections would be a good starting point. I don't know if it's dumb drivers or dumb road rules, but you never get that in UK/Europe. Look at the taxi driving in, how is that going to help the situation. Just coz he has a green light doesn't mean going through is the best option

I've heard stereotypes about German people being very strict , efficient and organized... As If that was a bad thing. Here in Mexico we could learn a thing or a hundred from their culture about getting things done.
Im from the us and here yes people react like a person should we move out of the way and let them pass its ussualy like that clip of germany but more crowded cities have a harder time of moving. Places like New York LA and other big cities have that problem but otherwise most cities and towns will part way and let them pass (my city Albuquerque in New Mexico is polite and will imedately move). Its just a matter if they have space to move or just don't care.
Same here in Poland, you have to pay a fine if you don't let the ambulance pass by. It's also one of the laws in the driving codex. Fun fact, ambulance is authorized to smash your mirror etc. If you don't move out of it's way
@@ThePress00 good joke.
Yeah what about the Falschparker? Someone died in a burning building AGAIN because of illegal parked cars.
Same mentality as those who don't let an ambulance pass.
But still much better than many countries. No empathy at.
Don't let it consume you.
Learning how to response to an ambulance is part of the training to get your drivers license in the Netherlands. In Germany they are better at it to be honest, the will provide a free lane whenever there is congestion, for emergency vehicles, even if there are none. Very polite and very considerate.
That is great! We had a short lesson on how to deal with emergency vehicles, but nothing substantial. If you ask me, every new student should get that lesson directly from someone who drives or has driven an ambulance/fire truck. I think it could go a long way in ensuring safety in emergency situations.
Just a couple of weeks ago several cars were waiting at a green light on a crossroads in the city center because we all heard the siren. Then out of the blue, the driver on the opposing side suddenly forgets why everyone is standing still, hits the gas and almost crashes into the ambulance that just passed the traffic light on his right. He then moved away in the same lane the ambulance was going and slowed it down for another 100m, until the idiot driver finally found room to clear the way. I was literally screaming in my car, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.🤦♂
Poland and Germany for the win, both were like watching the sea part.
In Poland we have TV commercials specificaly made to teach people to make room when the ambulance is driving,because it might as well be their family member or a friend fighting for their life in that ambulance.They make a commercial and air it,and after some time,when the problem arises again,they make another ones

We have the German system in Belgium now too, when traffic slows down, we already prepare a passing lane for ambulance by left cars hugging left and right cars hugging right, so if there is an emergency vehicle, it can get through
Same here in Norway, even though it's not "automatic" yet. It's also great for recovery vehicles. It can be a big problem on motorways when the ambulance and police gets straight trough, but the recovery vehicle is stuck in traffic.

Last Sunday I had some heavy traffics and full traffic stops in Germany, was on the left side and pulled over as much to the left as I could.
Everyone behind me followed this, most in the front also did.
Just one guy in front of me did the exact opposite and was as much to the right as possible. Those are the as*holes that having trouble if emergency vehicle comes suddenly from the backside.
Same here in Slovenia, but not all drivers are aware of this just yet, that's why they founded a non-profit organization called "Rescue Lane" which sends drivers free stickers for the back of their car to spread awareness on the road. I think all Union countries are striving to make this a permanent part of the driving culture. It only takes a little bit of effort and awareness from each driver to make a _Rettungsgasse_ and it can literally save lives!

In germany you find videos of ambulance or firefighters having to stop in the middle of the road and get out just to tell people to move the fuck away. And there are also people who want to abuse the the cleared road which often leads to blocking the emergency cars behind the first one.

In many European countries, it is forbidden by law to block the road for an emergency vehicle, and that you can temporarily break any driving laws if it helps in leaving space for the emergency car
ShiftHUN All over the world have the same rules only the attitude of the drivers are suck.
the laws are different from one country to another one ... thus in some countries you have to pull over and stop, in others you don't have to do so but only clear the path, and in some places you have to pull over before being able to see or hear an approaching emergency vehicle
We don't need any law. That is the real problem. Which law persecute the inhumanity? That's a cultural problem

In Switzerland u gotta move too. It’s illegal to block emergency services
The world needs more ambulance drivers like that polish one
The problem isn't the ambulance drivers.. the problem is the other drivers.
@@iliaslef thats easily fixed when the ambulance driver is a psychopath
@@mr.spaceaids5379 Also upgrade the ambulance to an anti-zombie car so that you can just slam through all cars in your way.And then hire a psychopath to drive.

I love how the polish ambulance just blasts it’s sirens when it’s near other cars and then bobs and weaves through the traffic
As an American, i have only seen someone fail to move for an ambulance once and a cop pulled them over and chewed them out harder than a mother to their drunk son.
God, this is so frustrating since here in Europe ambulances have the absolute priority! This gives me anxiety.
Infuriating to watch that, isn't it?
It's very sad ye, specially in the USA. Here in Europe it's true that ambulances have priority, as it should be
@@alejandroroldan6398 "Specially in the US." You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.
The two clips were in Manhattan, the most densely populated area in the U.S.
The majority of America is suburban, with plenty of space to move, which is what we do.
@@jordanlathrop2555 I hope so.
Αλέξανδρος Roλδαν sorry that my fellow Americans roasted you. I was gonna say the same thing as them but more polite lol. I live in suburbia in CT and we definitely go to the side to let the ambulance through, but I’ve never seen an ambulance on a highway so that would be interesting to see here in my state. But I thought it was interesting that all the cars completely stopped in Germany. here we go to the side but keep going (unless we cant keep moving lol) but it’s just cool that everyone in Germany worked together since I know even in my state there are some people who don’t care.
Poland And Germany: "HIPPITY HOPPITY ,THE ROAD IS YOUR PROPERTY "
Lol
Lol
American : "I HAB FREEDOM TO BE ON ROAD, YOU PRICK"
Lol
China: the road is OURS
Looks more like "how OVERPOPULATED CITIES react to an ambulance" because where I live in Michigan, people usually pull over to the side of the road and clear the way
@NillyC same here, I live in a small city and sometimes highways are packed but if an ambulance is coming or a firetruck, they're getting through lol
It's the law in Michigan that you have to pull over for emergency vehicles
it's the law in Missouri too. we always pulled over
I live in north Carolina and if there is an emergency vehicle you have to pull over to the right and you have to let the ambulance go regardless of if it is your turn or the traffic lights say so.
@@sitlalipadron5207 I thought it was the law everywhere. You yield to emergency vehicles!
I live in a city in the US and I was in stop and go traffic one day and I see the people in front of me moving to the side and I immediately check my mirrors and see the ambulance coming, so I move to the side as well. In the middle of bumper to bumper traffic everyone found a space to move their car out if the way. It’s not that hard.
I can feel the anxiety of the person driving the car at 7:07
Hahah that would so be me, the dumbass not able to decide which side to go towards
@@ShaunDreclin haha same here buddy. I keep getting into these awkward situations for some reason :D
The driver of the ambulance called the guy in the black car an: "Arschloch". Which means asshole😂😂

Germany: MAKE WAY FOR THE AMBULANCE
US/India/China: Is it the wind blowing that I hear ?
The first clip is Jakarta, Indonesia, not China
I'm American who lives in USA, & I'm going to tell to you that most normal Americans pull over for emegency vehicles whenever space is available.
The American ambulance clips in this video were filmed in Manhattan island, New York City,
Manhattan & the rest of NYC is known to gridlock easily as the tiny islands have small roads that barely leave any room for HOV lanes.
The USA ambulance clip demonstrated who easy it is to be caught in NYC gridlock.
Can't make way for a ambulance if they have no room to move
The clip from germany wasn’t an ambulance
@@skr043 same thing, emergency vehicle
In Italy, even in a big city like Milan, you move tf out of the ambulances way !
Why are people scared of the German siren? Sounds like something we have in Poland and it's alarming, not scary.
we have the exact same siren in France and I don't see why people find it scary or whatever... it's alarming, you have to move out of the way NOW !
ikr i’m from America(sadly) and it’s not scary it’s saying “ you gtfo of the way”
Not scary to me lol. Now, if it was speaking German on the other hand...
Some of indonesian ambulance's siren has just like german
I live in the United States and I wasn't alarmed by the German or other European countries ambulance sirens. I would have moved out of the way as best I could.
Places you want to be when you have a heart attack:
Warsaw, Poland
Germany
Nutaroo 22 only according to this stupid video, I guess.
Finland*
And england 😊 its similar to germany all cars stop and move out the way for the ambulance
@@quintuplebanned4267 nope
Europe, I live in Spain and we always stop on the side of the road if an ambulance is coming
Manhattan is probably the worst example of how Americans react
Mainland suburban America isn't *anything* relatable to Manhattan nor anything else to NYC.
There's usually lots of room to move over, or the ambulance gets alternative routes.
Thank u
Dont see anything wrong in the reaction in manhattan...you cant really give way immediately to ambulance in a traffic like that...atleast cars give way when they have chance
In the part of OH where i live most people actually move or fully stop for ambulances
@@nathalieoz4596 same with the area I live in.
I canada we move to the right even if there is a red light. Everyone gets out the way. It's beautiful to watch
Poland guy upon receiving an emergency call : GTA mode activated
Germany and Poland being like: Welcome to Europe, where we know how to form emergency corridors
MuffinFreak in america it is like that as well I think it depends on the area, I live in a suburb and we do that as well
People not moving for an ambulance in America is extremely rare even with cities. I've never seen what was shown in the video in america. Ever.
Exactly. Gridlocked traffic in New York where there is no where to pull over is not a very fair representation. Poland was light traffic compared to New York and the Germany clip seems obvious that there were previous emergency vehicles making paths ahead for there to be that much of a corridor created in advance.
I live in California and majority people are nice and move but there can be a time where they can't move or their just dicks
MuffinFreak so ist das...
Germany was like Jesus parting water except from that one guy who was probably a tourist.

Usa : But there's no spaceeee sorryyy!
Europe: FOR YOU I WILL MAKE SPACE!!!
So true
so true
Not indicative of everywhere in USA. Doesn't happen in Texas. People get tf out of the way.
The one from US that says unknown they were stuck in traffic they really cant do nothing about it but the Manhattan one what i do and from what I've seen in Texas we cross the red light or try to move to a different lane to let the ambulance pass
@@Pacheco4554 the one that says unknown was actually pretty easy to fix, but some of the people there didnt have enough brain cells. US things I guess
In Germany you actually have to clear a path for the ambulance even if there is no ambulance coming. You can lose your license if you are in the way of an emergency vehicle
In Malaysia,we did the same thing like that of Poland and Germany,paving the way for the ambulance to get to it’s destination😁
I mean you guys have a wideass road
Please explain? How do you know to clear if you dont see an abulance? I think its great!! Im just confused
@@elemwitt4604 you have to clear a path even if there is no ambulance (for example in a traffic jam you need to keep a gap open between the left most and the lane next to it).
Although people don't always do it perfectly it has become better in recent years
@@NtotheGMC oh!! Okay thanks that makes way more sense! Thank you!
I thought it was common sense to move when you hear siren car. In Europe it is common. I'm from Estonia and ambulance sounds like German one. People pull to the side even when it's dangerous and have attitude like "Help the person in need meanwhile I'm almost crashing into lake that's next to the road... Don't worry about me I'll swim"
Skylar Black it’s common in the usa too, idk why they chose those clips
Well in new York it's usually so busy there's traffic on the sidewalks. But most people move out of the way since it's a law of course. But you do get those arrogant karens and kyles who think the road is there's and only there life matters
In Poland looks like GTA, cars go out of the way
That ambulance in Germany must feel like moses
real4champions More like god
real4champions nope. We Pay 500€ for Block the Ambulance
If you dont follow the instructions on the signs " how to make up space" ( in Germany its called "Rettungsgasse", a Term in english for that can be a kind of "ermegency path"), which are everywhere on the Autobahn, you get very high fined.
So must they in Poland.
imagine you being in that ambulance and your dying.
I'm spanish living in the UK. In both countries the ambulance rarely has to slow down because everybody makes way for them in the moment we hear them in the distance. I call it being civilised.
Same in France, the behavior in Asia is so shit.
In America, we also move to the side, for fire trucks, police, or ambulances, I think it's more of a problem in major cities because I've never seen people not move out of the way.
@@dr.wallacebreen3859
To be fair to the motorists shown in that American city, they didn’t have much in the way of options as to how to make a space.
Here in Britain we do our very best to get enough room for them. There are videos from the European continent, Germany in particular, where the entire crowded roadway parts as if it were The Second Coming. Its heartbreakingly lovely to see.
I live in Berlin Germany and You’re right an ambulance always gets space to drive through. I am shocked to see that it’s not like that in other countries. It tells everything about the level of the minds of people.
Same in France
ignorant until they'll need one

I love how all the Americans are so defensive, as you can see in the video they drive selfishly. But all the people in the comments try to make excuses for them and justify their behviour out of national pride.. Literally the reason there is an issue. Ironic.
I feel so sorry for those patients inside the ambulance...
Franchezkaichi Steven or the people the ambulance is trying to get to
Franchezkaichi Steven most of us feel sorry
Franchezkaichi Steven dead on arrival
Franchezkaichi Steven or the patient who need the ambulance to pick 'em up?
Well... Those patients gonna need some patience.
In Ireland, when there’s an ambulance behind you and the sirens are going off then you have to move to the side of the road and some people would say prayers as well when the ambulance passes for the patient. Well that’s what we do where I’m from anyways. :)
We do that in France ^^
That's nice. 💜
Yes I completely forgot about the prayer part but yeah pretty much everyone says a prayer and it’s seen as rude if you don’t
Wow! That's great! 🥺

Poland driver getting flashbacks 💀
I don't understand why there aren't "emergency vehicle" lanes anywhere in the world
Some countries are very inexperienced to car culture and that inexperience shows that these nations don't know how to build, educate nor plan emergency vehicle routes.
That would be just a HUGE waste of space, especially in the city. Instead more drivers should learn how to make way as efficient as in Germany.
@@MainMite06 It's a waste of productive space , especially in large cities like New York , LA , Hong Kong , Singapore , Beijing , and etc.
The government's main goal for roads is to make their citizens Mobility to be as high as possible to increase productivity
an extra lane taken out could cost more money thank you think
We all should just learn from Poland and Germany
Because people will call it "rObBeRy"

It usually isn’t like that in the US, at least not anywhere near me
NYC in complete gridlock is nothing relatable to suburban American cities where we pull over!
or the ambulance can use the wide shoulders!
I know, in NYC, if you move, your hitting a car. You can't really do too much except slightly turn. They make it seem like people don't care
Imagine GUYS when the hell did I say I don’t care about wearing a mask? I’m talking about how most the US pulls over for an ambulance. Get the fuck out of here.
Imagine GUYS Wow had to delete your last reply? Pussy. Majority of Americans pull over for emergency vehicles so you’re wrong right there. And the only thing wrong with America right now is ignorant people going around calling everything racist when it’s not.
Imagine GUYS The video is about an Ambulance, not COVID. Yes COVID is bad here but there a hundreds of thousands of false cases. Many states just admitted to counting other illnesses and deaths as COVID.
