[POV] PERFECT Emergency Escort after Big Accident
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 мар 2024
- Welcome, today we join officers of a specialized motorcycle traffic team in The Hague, The Netherlands. The control room has asked them to perform an escort for an ambulance. The ambulance is transporting a victim with a medical emergency and is headed for the nearest hospital. Let us watch how these officers clear the road for the ambulance. While one officer stays right in front of the ambulance for escort, two others clear every upcoming intersection.
If you’re fascinated by sirens, flashing lights, and the critical work of first responders, you’re in the right place. Our channel provides a unique perspective-literally-from the driver’s seat of police cars, ambulances, and fire trucks. We collect various videos and add insightful context and commentary.

Sorry, I misread your question.
you have to speak?
Actually, most intersections and emergency vehicles (as well as public transportation) in the Netherlands and Belgium are equipped with system that allows the lights on an intersection to turn green by the time they are passing said intersection. This must have been a route that does not have such infrastructure. Another reason (as is common in the Netherlands and Belgium) is that the victim in the ambulance is so hurt/sick, that sirens, breaking or other delays during the trip to the hospital can be fatal for his/her life. ;-)
those who save lives, i respect the deepest
at 07:15.. The ambulance is not only faster but also way smoother at the destination.
That's why we have the Escorts. so the ambulance does not have to stop or make sudden moves.
The riders of the Dutch Police are really well trained for these kind of escorts.
The ambulance crew requested a 'gliding transport'. Which is to go smooth, few hard corners and bumbs. Smoothness over speed.
Without the escort the ambulance would have had to slow down and speed up again at all those intersections. Few as they were in this case.
This is Team Traffic The Hague and they have been specially trained for this. Accompany not only ambulances but also dignitaries and all urgent transport moving through traffic.
It's great to see a team so well trained they make it look like anyone could do it but at the top end of my career the reason they look calm is that your seeing every one in the team working as just one single big nimble escorts, and that is just beautiful and effective
alot of countries have this now all based on the british SEG
In the netherlands we say Den Haag
Great job, I'm an ambulance driver in Italy and this support is fantastic!
Heroes risking their lives for others ❤❤🏴🏴🏴
For those who don't speak Dutch and are curious what the [Inaudible] subtitles actually mean:
1:45 "And with red on the intersection"
3:00 "And we are with you."
3:05 "On the roundabout slight bump"
4:33 Instead of "We go straight on", this should be "Right turn lanes for straight on"
5:10 "On the intersection, you need to point at that bump."
6:04 Not sure on this one, it's either "Didn't notice" or "Message received" (We use the verb "observed" for both.)
6:17 "Yeah drive on to them" or "Yeah keep on driving"
7:30 the officer says "OC, Aankomst Leyweg" which translates to "Dispatch, arrival Leyweg [hospital]"
Thanks for translation. 🙏❤️
thank you Tyrope, for the translations
Thanks for translation, highly appreciated.
Look how smooth the road is. In the UK there would have been dozens of potholes to go down.
I am Dutch. I even didn't notice.
"Potholes"?
Some of them are proper sinkholes 😂😂😂😂
But yeah, bad quality tarmac, weird foundation, the urge to keep repairing instead of renewal, and nowadays lack of money.
I've seen main roads here being closed for a week to be "repaired" last year, but they need re-repairing already 😕 also gritting while dry, at 5°C for days on a row isn't beneficial for the tarmac.
We don't have potholes, we have the odd tiny patch of tarmac road here and there.
Still, as long as the Tory donors and Peers get lots of our cash...it all trickles down, right 😅
More like craters in the UK with shockingly ignorant and arrogant drivers.
The ambulance specifically asked to be informed of potholes. What does that tell you? The ambulance driver expects there being hardly any potholes, or he would not have to ask for them to be pointed out,
It is even more impressive when the Dutch police combine the motorcycle escort with other units to secure the largest crossroads. It requires good teamwork to organise the units in a minimum of time.
the patient is not always transported to the nearest hospital, but to the hospital that can provide the best care.
For example: there is a hospital in Alkmaar, Noord-Holland, Netherlands.
When someone with heart problems urgently needs surgery, but the surgeons in Alkmaar are already performing an operation, it is common for them to transport the patient to Amsterdam, North Holland, the Netherlands, because there are more surgeons available.
And sometimes also literally for the specialist that knows the patient (in cases of a rare condition or a condition the person has already been seen for by this specialist multiple times) being in a hospital and it is faster to escort the patient to that hospital than to try and get the doctor to the hospital closest by.
4:56 Communication is short but to the point. That's just the Dutch culture: if you talk for longer than 20 seconds, you're considered long-winded.
in this case it's just Disipline. They always talk the same things so everybody know how to handle and what to expect
Tik, tok, tik tok
@@l.v1473 not aggressive, might just be the pronounciation. Generally the dutch are very chill and relaxed people that are just straight to the point, don't sugar coat stuff and like their efficiency (which I suppose can be mistaken for rudeness if you're not used to it).
@@chrisr8996 as a Norwegian I very much appreciate the Dutch style, though they talk too much... 😝
@@l.v1473 if you can't see the difference between agressive and assertive, perhaps communication is not your skill
Proud to live in The Netherlands, no complains.
Thanks for the amazing content. I love these EMS/Police videos from the Netherlands but my Dutch is too bad so I only understand fragments of the radio chatter. You are a real blessing for subtitling these clips and providing context.
Much love from Germany
Thank you!:)
As a Dutch native speaker, I sometimes also have to listen carefully through all the compression and frequency-loss the intercom causes.
You can even hear the officers having trouble with the exact same thing at 3:08.
Well done. Congrats to that Police Officers. Regards from Portugal
The most impressive thing for me here is the road quality. If they tried this in my country the potholes would make any treatment impossible.
Always love that Dutch police escorts (ambulance or VIP) never pass the escorted vehicle(s) because it's too distracting. They always stay in-front or (in rare cases) behind.
For both it's not really about distraction, but more about the discomfort it creates to constantly have sirens overtake you again, which for an ambulance patient, is really, really stressful. He/she can't see what's going on, does feel every move slightly 'amplified' by the fact he/she can't see the road ánd is in a horizontal position laying down. To than also have constant sirens zoom by would provide great discomfort to say the least.
a huge amount of respect for this kind of policework !
gives me goosebumps everytime i see this.
Good of you to point out that this isn't done so much for speed (although it helps), but for smoothness.
In fact the ambulance driver requests the ride not to be super quick, but smooth. Also he asks for the information on road condition to be given to him to make sure the ride is as smooth as possible and to make sure he doesn't have to brake hard.
A few years ago me and my wife had been on vacation with motorcycles in France. We ended up in a Paris traffic jam when we suddenly heard the sound of an ambulance behind us. Being Austrians we had been surprised that no one did on the road did anything to give them space to get through so we (connected with intercom) decided to help and try to block the traffic so they could get through. It worked and the ambulance could go on pretty quick…
But we were pulled over by a random police car and fined for agressive driving behavior…
Anyway, those 200 Euro were worth it…❤
Been there done that but 60 yrs ago on a Triumph 650 'Saint'. Brought back many memories.
It is really impressive to see them in action. Everybody gets out of the way or stops at their instruction. If by odd chance you are not complying to the motor police..you better beware of a hefty fine and a good talk!!
A fine is probably the least of their concerns at that moment, especially in the slower kinds of transports, but you will probably first hear an even stronger whistle and a more urgent hand gesture.
If you still fail to comply, you will get shouted at "HEY!!! STOP!!!" and if then still, you decide the command is not meant for you: "HEY!!? SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOUR EYES AND EARS!? WHAT'S DIFFICULT ABOUT THIS GESTURE?!"
And, obviously, depending on the officer, the last remark can be made less friendly: "YOU GOT SHIT IN YOUR EYES OR SOMETHING!?" or "ARE YOU BLIND!?"
Such a smooth escort well done to all involved
This is the true essence of "serve and project"
My respect goes out to all poice, firefighters and other firstresponders in the world! They are doing an amazing service and a great job!
No breaking : means poly trauma and potential major bleed ( head, abdomen, thorax) which of course needs immediate surgery .
Or any spinal injury.
You mean no braking. Breaking is something else.
RESPECT FOR THE REAL LIFE HEROES 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👏🙏👏👏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🐯💪🐯💪🐯💪🐯👍👍💪💪🐯💪🐯💪
The Netherlands seem to be very very good at this. Other countries should look, watch. And learn.
Not just the Netherlands, pretty much all Western-European countries have similar services available
@@Headcase0570, I’ve seen what they do in Belgium and France and it is nothing compared to this level of professionalism, but then again it looks like French and Belgian drivers are instructed to freeze in place and become decisiveless when challanged with emergency vehicles.
@@thomasbiekmann25It is an overall team effort. The othet drivers can be seen as part of the team. The police takes the lead and 99% of the public does their part (1% are A-holes, panicking or not paying attention) following the directions of the police and making room in their lane for cars that have to move over. There is lots of eye contact between drivers to get this rigth.
The police is great and professional and the public cooperates
The Dutch police also trains foreign police forces worldwide.
@@Headcase0570 that's very doubtful for ambulance escort rides...
Also much safer for the ambulance as the intersections are guarded by the cops. Well done.
in europe we have this new phantastic thing to measure distance, we named it Kilometer, you should try this out!!!
kind of fun to see this done by civlian police. Worked as both regular police and as a swedish armed soldier, when i worked in the army i worked as a traffic unit squadleader. this is the exact way we would do it with our BMW GS 800 motorcykles. Calling it "skip a bock"", the lead would take the first intersection, the rest of the MCs would follow through and then try to get past the convoy to get to the next intersecction.
I saw them on the A12 Utrecht recently in poring rain. Amazing skills!
Great job. Saving lives & keeping the public safe at the same time. Thanks for sharing. 🙏😇❤️❤️🌹🌺💐🌹🌹🇿🇦
Watched a few of these. The riders are excellent at controlling traffic with minimum resources. Pleasure to watch them work
Prayers for the injured.
A competent surgeon works better than a prayer, even a priest wouldn't be much use.
I really enjoy these videos lately. Great content!
Awesome with the English subtitles,and as always a top of the line video and escort ❤❤😊😊
About the communication comment around 5m. They do. To inform each other, but inform the ambulance specifically where to go, and the ambulance informs them the colour of the traffic lights. The latter is because if they have red, others have green (and thus might start going) or if they have green their own lanes might start moving. It’s to inform the officer on the 8ntersection where to pay attention most, as if someone is not paying attention and starts going it’s where the green light is
Typical Dutch efficiency, & with other road users complying with the outriders - my hat off to these fine officers who contribute to the saving of lives - it's rarely seen in the UK anymore - & what a pity that is.
G'day all. What an awesome bunch of motorbike riders you've got there. It all seems to go so flawlessly. I salute you guys
Always feel fuzzy while watching these, cant describe the feeling
Note that is crossing has a special light for horse riders. Even the request button is at height! @03:53
4:54 Great teamwork! I admire the work of these motorcycle escorts. Didn't see it in Germany.
Wow! Perfect escort and respect for this guys!
What an weird video to get emotional about.. Human co-operation at its best is a beautiful thing to witness.
I respect human.beings.
Good servive by cops.
Thanks to public for there cooperation on en -route.
Supersache mit dem begleiteten Einsatz, als dipl. Rettungssanitäter HF wäre ich sehr froh darüber, wenn solche eine Unterstützung häufiger wäre. Ganz im Sinne des Patienten, die Sicherheit während einer Blaulichtfahrt ist so viel höher und es ermöglicht die Weiterversorgung des Patienten während der Fahrt
In the UK our Police bikes don't get to do this like they used to. Plus our roads are shot to pieces - the chap would be better off pointing out where there isn't a bump or hole.
No idea why we pay so much tax here.
Yeah, taxes in the Netherlands are really high, but whenever I’m abroad I feel very glad all the tax money is used well.
Wow 100th deepest respect 🙏 🫡 👏 😢 thank u 😘 💖 ❤️ for transport hospital 🏥 😢
That was excellent , well conducted all the way .
Shame we don't really have this in the UK.
In the UK we have our own Metropolitan Police Special Escort Group who do most of the VIP etc escorts. Unlike the Dutch guys in this video they do it all discreetly without sirens, horns and all the hi-viz paraphernalia on bikes and in cars, and on much more crowded roads too.
@@TheRoybeasley yes i know, but that's for the met and for vip clients. Not for national emergency use.
@@TheRoybeasley These guys are part of the same team that usually perform VIP-escorts. That's why you will hardly see videos from other police units performing the same procedures, as they didn't follow the same extensive training as the The Hague VTB team did (VTB = VerkeersTechnische Begeleider = Technical Traffic Support). Be aware though that the training you need to follow to become a motorcycle police officer is already tough and does include stuff like this, but the The Hague VTB officers are the only ones that do this on a regular basis, while this can be a rare occurence for officers outside The Hague.
@@Orcaben1 Been involved in many transfers in the UK, all the police forces have similar teams. They're very much the same as the Dutch.
Great Team work. Good video mate thanks for sharing it.
perfect work!
Dutch ppl dont realise how amazing Dutch police actually is
well actually we do. just one look on tv at some other police forces and we are reminded.
Oh but we do.
@@taurusnltaurusnl4686dont misundertsand me im dutch as well, but litteraly everytime therse a clip on wocial media pther than you tube the comments are filled with negativity and plain hate towards police. I live our police.
This is a very specialized team of motorcycle drivers they use this a lot here in Holland to escort ambulance to the hospital.
In the is case there are 3 motor cycles 2 drive ahead the stop and clear intersesctions they are called ( SPITSERS) the third motorcycle stay in front of the Ambulance thats the Commander. But some people do not respect the police or a ambulance and create somtimes really dangerous situations during a transport those motor cycle drivers had a good training to perform there job , some times they use police cars to do the escort if you see them coming make way and let them pass because maybe next time it could be you in the back of that ambulance.
Incredible traffic!
Huge respect 💪👊👊🙏😎
Drive safe
An outstanding performance 😁👌👌👌❤️❤️❤️
R E S P E C T ! ! !
these i do like to watch
Very impressive!
A Great Job
That’s cool. In Jakarta the traffic is so bad that even if people want to move over for the ambulance, they sometimes physically can’t, especially on a major intersection or in rush hour.
They are insane good at ther job ❤ they even got at YT chan witch i enjoy alot to see, i hope the danes was just half a good as theese guy's
congratulations well done to all.
Had one full police escort from Cheshire to Liverpool when with ambulance service.
Well done
i had a POV in 2008 from 1 hospital to an other cuase of a difficult CVA surgery
Great demonstration of controlling the road, but it helps that drivers in the Netherlands are very compliant. I do feel that the patient must have been an important person, they don't do this for every ambulance where care is being provided on route.
You do not have to be a special person: being severely injured and requiring specialist care as fast as possible can initiate a call for an escort like this.
There is a common misconception that this type of treatment is reserved for people based on class in society. It is not.
An important person? Who thinks like that?
Every person is important when you need urgent medical care.
@@landsgevaer not important just cynical.
@@Dutch3DMaster I'm glad to hear that, I don't know of anywhere else in the world that a regular member of the public would have this sort of escort to get their ambulance to the hospital.
Nice teamwork bro, but i went there idk like 2 or 3 days ato.. i think i saw them..
goed werk mensen
bardzo sprawnie, podziwiam procedury
goooooood!!!!!
I am Dutch and frequently watch the videos’s from this team. I love the fact that you subtitle the communication between the policemen and i also love your engaging comment. Hope to see more from you!
Try it in heavy rush hour traffic… as the saying goes been there done that ❤
So nice that you asked to "please" give a like, that is so much better than those psycho's that are bossing their viewers around to do so, so my like is also for that. Great job!
When you see an ambulance being escorted by the police at high speed it's bad.
When you see an ambulance being escorted by the police at low speed it's really bad.
3:40 fire trucks turn off sirens and flashing lights when approaching a horse rider. As a motorcyclist I also approach horses at an appropriate speed. Apparently the police motorcyclist does not understand this, and even worse he does not report it. I am also a horse rider myself
I would love to be a motorcycle officer
[Inaudible] at the 5:10 mark is "Hij mot effe die trambaan wijzen". This translates as "He has to point out the light rail line". The motorcycle crossed it at the 4:37 mark. So no, not a perfect run at all I'm afraid.
I have pleaded with some senior police friends of mine (who make decisions on whether to have cars or motorbikes in their districts) to have more motorbikes for these types of eventualities. Sadly, now that these videos are coming out (which I enjoy greatly), many of them have retired or have been promoted beyond these roles.
At the end of the Video: „Please give this video a like if you found it entertaining.“ - Sorry but Bu..sh..!
A person in trouble and under a medical emergency transport can never be entertaining!
But my Full Respekt to the Team ensuring this fast and smooth Transport.
Street Heroes👋!
nice one. are the mics from the officers really that bad? hard to understand it seems
I have seen several times when being escorted like this would have been advantageous. Some patients need that smoother ride so that their injuries are not worsened by slamming on the brakes, etc. The medics need it so that they can actually work on the patient. Besides moving around, it keeps equipment from being fouled up. I was working a cardiac patient when we had to brake hard. I had put the medication box on the jump seat and it went flying off scattering drugs everywhere and breaking many of the vials. So; a smooth ride can get you through better and safer. Wish we had a system like this.
Better to watch than any stupid US police chase. Just pure pragmatic Dutch teamwork!
Bekend terrein, Honselersdijk 😉
Can you link the video?? Not just the channel name but the exact video...
Lucky this is not uk all you would hear on radio is bump hole bump hole
AI is used for the subtitles. *Inaudible* is wrong if you can understand Dutch.
👍
Bekend terrein, rij er regelmatig.
4:02 Our biggest obstacle is horse rider??????? I refuse to believe that Netherlands is a real place, Now I wanna move to Netherlands and be a horse rider in the city that's my dream now.
haha in my town we have many traffic lights designed for horse riders. On some intersections you got lights for pedestrians (stickman figure in the light) and a bike path with bike signal, signals for cars. and a very high signal with button high up with a horse light on a sand path to cross the road :P
Which country is that
This is the Netherlands, for me the best with ambulance guidance.
People saying in comment that it must be a very important person. This is Netherlands NOT America or other 3rd world country. ANYONE can get this kind of escort or even a Medic-chopper if needed. ANYONE.
Sadly, America is trying hard to destroy our European structure through our politicians. We need to get out of American dramas
Haha I am dutch I am a netherlander haha
There is one commedant and two spitsers 😉
But where is the ambulance? 🤔
Why is the truck blurred out in the beginning of the video?
Is advertising banned?
Seems a pretty weird or petty rule
I think that was the crash he was taking about…
Most likely the truck, with company branding on the side of the trailer, was involved in the crash and is therefore blurred. It could also be down to ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash or when the victim has died from injuries sustained that makes a blur mandatory.
Zet die lichten dan op groen, jullie kunnen dit al 25 jaar. Zelfs buschauffeurs en taxi`s.
Very sad to have the need of that escort. The emergency-truck itself has normally enough sound and light to be recognized, And to suppose a drivers consideration.
yes very bad accident requires extra help!
