Why do they spell "Ambulance" backwards on the front of ambulances?

wow. Do you need a sign to say move out of the freakin way too.


unaturalyaspirated
look in your mirror when they are behind you, self explanatory isn't it

Just in case someone looking in the rear view mirror doesn't realize that the white van with the flashing lights is an ambulance.

So people can glance in their mirrors and see what's behind them. Supposedly, people approaching would know it's an ambulance, but drivers in front NEED to get out of the way!

so you'll see it in your mirror when they're behind you.

actually two words are spelled backwards
ambulance and fire
the reason for this so motorist can see the words spelled foreward through the mirror

ecnalubma
erif

ambulance
fire
through a mirror

So when you look in your rear view mirror, you can see the word AMBULANCE written there, and move out of it's way.
