Rettmobil Expo 2024 Parade - 110+ EMS/ Fire/ Police/ Emergency Vehicles With Lights & Sirens [GER]

The annual final part of the Rettmobil expo is a parade of (almost) all emergency vehicles leaving the expo area with lights and sirens in one large convoy. Here we have more than 110 emergency vehicles from various different EMS, Fire, Police and other agencies from several different countries as well as a few company demo vehicles.
What are your personal favorite vehicles from the parade?

Am I the only one who was on the edge of their seat wondering if that ARFF truck was even going to fit around the corner without getting stuck? These things are huge!

1:48 do I hear a Dutch Ambulance Siren
3:27 A New Dutch Ambulance with Old Dutch Ambulance Siren? That's something I don't see in videos everyday
10:13 If it had Whelen Dual Tone Sirens, It would've came from Chile

It seems that alot of the emergency light manufacturers overseas need better electrical engineers.
Most of the emergency vehicle lighting I've seen from overseas seem to have glitches specifically within their flash patterns that need worked out. Flash patterns play a large role in my opinion as far as roadway safety and the general public being able to identity legitimate emergency vehicles.
I see alot of glitches in the flash patterns in overseas products.
In my opinion the United States based engineering is much more thorough when it comes to the flash patterns available in their products.

I agree. Most European manufacturers are either not very interested in emergency lighting and sirens or they don't take that topic very serious. The lack of functions is disappointing and even frustrating compared to what's possible nowadays, especially with smart programmable systems like Whelen Core. When first responders and other people complain about something related to lights & sirens I normally have a product suggestion and/ or programming solution for their problems. The issue is that many people just complain about something but there's barely anyone willing to change anything. Apart from that, numerous manufacturers only use their standard lights & sirens and are even unwilling to change them.

Interessante neue Fahrzeuge. Da sind auch viele Nummernschilder aus meiner Region dabei (Raum Frankfurt/Aschaffenburg/Würzburg).

@@realdoctortenenbaum Das ist der Vorteil der Region. Die Messe ist nicht allzu weit entfernt von Frankfurt und Umgebung, somit können Fahrzeuge einfacher zur Verfügung gestellt werden 🙂
