How on earth does it sound like a ice cream truck? The siren made to be easy, less expensive and is to be heard over a distance to not be drown out by other noises, it's why 3 tones and hi-Lo sirens are very popular in Europe, South America, Japan, North America(some states in USA and Canada).

I'm a paramedic in Belgium, I really do know the drill. Some interclinical transfers are performed with blues and twos. Don't ask me why, but it is more the case than the exception. It is rather rare that the anaesthetist asks us not to use our sirens. I know the protocols in Germany and in the Netherlands. I prefer those. But yeah, welcome to Belgium.
@@xadosgang861 Partly correct. Thre are also nurses holding a 'professional titel' in emergency and intensive care (as I am). Still not exactly the same as paramedics like in the UK or US, but it's getting close.

How disappointed were those kids when they got to this ice cream truck? "Ok kids, sorry we don't have any ice cream but here's some gauze, some sheets, and some saline."
Don't worry , this is a private ambulance. When you get a heart attack in Brussels, and someone calls 112, this ambulance won't show up, but a rig from the fire department will get to the scene, within 8 to 15 minutes. But probably even a lot earlier!
Come on guys. Doesn't matter which siren a emergency vehicle uses, Wail, Yelp, Q, Two-Tune, Three-Tune or something else. When other people clear the streets it's alright. And for those who say, "they didn't clear!" it's rush-hour! @Dirk: Was war das für ein Einsatz?
KazMarBe1, this is not an fire department ambulance.. and these 2 guys are well known for their lights and siren runs without having a call, just doing it for the movie. Like with non urgent relocations. In this movie they do have a call.
No it doesn't need to do that. This is a private ambulance service, which is probably responding to a hospital to transfer a patient to another hospital. For these "urgent transfers" the ambulance has to be at the hospital to pick up the patient within half an hour after the call came in. The "real" emergency ambulances (112) are on scene within 5-10 minutes.
There is not too much need for speed for them ... ACSA is a secundary medical transportfirm. They are not involved with 112-responses afaik. Their business is to do non-critical transfers or critical transports from hospital to another hospital. Unfortunatly, many of those firms abuses sirens and blue lights ...
thank you very very much. i can see from 4:50 to 8:27 i know before this was a separate video by Windows movie maker; this is the street w/ the famous traffic jam
1 paramedic in training! or a special ambulance we call "PIT" in Belgium (paramedical intervention team). It's an ambulance with 2 paramedics and an ER nurse trained in pre hospital care! :)
+Stijn Demin in America we have P.I.T it's not for ambulances but for police purposes......Police call the highly specialized maneuver a P.I.T. maneuver, which stands for Pursuit Intervention Technique. The point is to get the vehicle off the road and ultimately arrest the driver.
These private ambulances don't respond to the kind of emergencies you mention. They are often called in by a doctor whose patiënt needs to get to the hospital rather urgently, but without life threatening pathologies. They are not allowed to respond to calls which occur on the public road or in public buildings. Hospitals can call them in for a interclinical-transfer. You see?
I know there is already someone saying the siren sounds like a ice cream truck but.... I gotta say it too lol, it definitely sounds close to a ice cream truck lol. I can't really take it seriously lol, hilarious siren! LOL!
Round about Geneeva Street Henri Dunant Lane and Frans Courtens Lane. They are driving straight on Geneeva. Frans is to the right and Henri is 3/4 around the round about to the left.
That was a hell of a journey. I've driven round Brussels, so I have a good idea what the traffic can be like. Pity the other road users don't have the same discipline as the Germans.
ACSA ambulances are mostly used for transport from one hospital to another across town for more specialist services. It's not used when someone is in danger and asked for emergency services, because then they use the fire brigade ambulances, and bring you (most often) to the nearest hospital.
How many people are there in an Belgian Ambulance? I see at least two people running around to move cars. In Sweden there are only two persons in an ambulance.
I dont see where you see a Peugeot 807 minivan but the church is the Sint Joost Church on St Joost square. Give me he time index where you see the minivan and I'll get back to you on that.
Why do you have to send an ambulance that takes 20 minutes to get to its call out destination? This surely cannot achieve the standard target time set by the authorities?

This is a old Dutch ambulance sirene. Nice! Greats from Holland.
Not true the netherlands ambulance got a other siren in thet year its more a france siren

Paramedics doesn't exist in Belgium. They are BLS level with 120 Hours of cursus + 40 H inside an ambulance.

I was planning a trip there....don't have to go now...seen it all! What a long response! Good driving though!
20 min wtf... ik don't hope its a reanimation...
great sound... very interesting

Very skillful driving.
MOVE PEOPLE!!! THE ICE CREAM TRUCK IS TRYING TO GET THROUGH!!!
That response time took forever! The person is already dead and buried for crying out loud!
Chapeau ! De là à sortir pour aménager une 3ième voie,bravo !
Hab im ersten Moment gedacht da fängt jetzt irgendein Lied im Hintergrund an :D
The siren is great....I would like to meet the co-driver...I like the sound of his voice... :)
merci pour votre engagement!!
Come on guys. Doesn't matter which siren a emergency vehicle uses, Wail, Yelp, Q, Two-Tune, Three-Tune or something else. When other people clear the streets it's alright.
And for those who say, "they didn't clear!" it's rush-hour!
@Dirk: Was war das für ein Einsatz?
glad to see the vanilla tree air freshener is as popular over there as well..
this video is one of the best specialy because those two guys
I love the siren sound!
this is what i call passion for your job! with a little frustration mixed in xD
great work on clearing the streets!
At 15:00 you can definitely turn the sirene off cause by now the patient is most probably dead
Avery good reaction from the driver and the helpers which ran out of car good clearing situation
@ClubCrew
It's a Dutch 3-tone.
thank for the ride
Hihetetlen közlekedési kultúrálatlanság! Incredible traffic unculture!
It sounds like an ice cream truck is coming or something :)

Bravo au ambulancier qui sont descendu de l'ambulance pour la faire passer... (Applaudissement).

Belgium, it's in the description
Welcome to RUclips... if you've come to be taken seriously, you're in the wrong place. Please move along.

Great video, even with the comedy siren. Those paramedics earned their pay that day.
Hab mich geirrt , das ist in Belgien . Kein Wunder , die Sirene macht mich irre !!!!!
This is crazy man. It's way too busy there to get through. You should've called a police unit to clear the route ahead.
Three persons in the ambulance?
1 paramedic in training! or a special ambulance we call "PIT" in Belgium (paramedical intervention team). It's an ambulance with 2 paramedics and an ER nurse trained in pre hospital care! :)

Kannst sagen was du willst effektiv war es aber...ich wünschte die Leute würden von alleine so schnell so gut zur Seite fahren.

why does that look like a soft toy in the window by the siren control box???
No ice cream truck will say: Patient's dying
Hi.I like your video very much. It's really great. I'll keep an eye on your channel. I am your fan and I will support you.
Now that's what I call a driving test!
Those sirens. Is this an ambulance or an ice cream truck? -_-
Ice cream trucks got their sirens from Brussels!
@Michaelbos
They are trying to avoid the traffic jams.
why would this mercedes ambulance w/ a 3-tone siren fasten the 3 tones while in a tunnel?
1 it was Dutch
2 that’s the rules
that traffic is the same we have here in NYC
My godness... so much traffic, i wont drive an ambulance there..^^
Does the 3 tone siren give a better directional sense than the 2 tone?
idk but this ambulance was dutch now belgian
20 Minuts???
Why do you have to send an ambulance that takes 20 minutes to get to its call out destination? This surely cannot achieve the standard target time set by the authorities?
