QX179R SG

A222 still running on QX4949J??

till date, A222 is still on QX4949J..

QX179R SG

QX5212U is back on A222 but it won't be for long though due to a faulty rear suspension (glide-rite)..

Suspect that QX4949J will be replacing QX5212U as A222 instead..

strobe lights on meaning it was proceeding for a call somewhere in tampines & siren needs not be switched on unless motorists fail to give way or its being caught in a jam..

yup.. but definitely not speeding/rushing.

QX179R SG

well, ambulances are not supposed to speed..

there were instances whereby 2 of my stn drivers who were caught for speeding & failure to form up..

seriously, LTA must understand the situation we're in & for standby cases, we can't afford to waste any time waiting for the traffic lights to turn green for example..

Singapore govt should really look into letting SCDF FireEngines&Ambulances go thru traffic lights when proceeding for 995 calls! ( Of course, safety comes 1st @roads) Strobe lights & Sirens on, S'poreans should really learn to give way to SCDF on roads!

QX179R SG

yeah agreed..most motorists are just plain selfish & they must really kena their relatives or whoever in a very urgent standby case (not being mean or wat) then will they every understand of the importance of giving way..

Actually, those rounded cameras that you sometimes see above the traffic light at junctions, LTA said that it was implemented to control traffic but actually its totally fake..

I saw 111 yesterday since someone collasped at my location.

i have to say it looks quite sleek. especially the side mirrors.

But the siren is horrible.

collasped as in no pulse & no breathing right..

both side mirrors are integrated with the flashing signal lights & don't mind me asking, but why do you say that the siren is horrible..

It sounds horrible and weak. not like a real siren.

QX179R SG

It sounds horrible and weak. not like a real siren.

there is the siren + horn function together in one switch box & the other is the foot pedal which is on the floor in between the driver's seat as well as the passenger seat & I assume you meant that one..

Pitot SG

no i am talking about the switchbox. is it some china brand?

QX179R SG

no i am talking about the switchbox. is it some china brand?

there are various siren sounds that can be heard as it can be selected from by turning the knob..its faulty (not surprising as its an ambulance from central f/s) I presume & the lastest ambulance euqipment is assmebled by STK but maintained by ComfortDelGro..

sinicker SG
