  so that it can be easily read through the rear view mirrror of the car in front & the car can get aside & make a way for ambulance to go as ambulance can have serious person in it who needs to reach the hospital as soon as possible.....

  if there was an indication that the ambulance wants to turn then you should make ample preparation to change lanes..

  i want to ask....
  
  how do you assess a case is important that...
  
  1. only beacon lights on(but they are always one right?)
  2. beacon lights on + sirens blaring throughout the entire time
  
  and.... how you get your meals? firefighter on sentry buy?

  for standby cases, the beacon lights & sirens would be sounded throughout the entire time till reach hospital..for non standby cases, only the beacon lights would be on & occasionally sirens when motorists fail to give way..

  for meals, usually we'll get them at hospitals & sometimes we'll get the firefighters to help us buy..
