Bro, calm down. At least you didn't know this from birth. That's how it is. In the same way, some of us now know this today. We all learn something everyday. What one learns today as a new thing may be an old knowledge for several others. No one knows it all. . . . There are stuffs known to others too as a basic knowledge which you haven't got an idea of yet; some of which you would never! Live and let live! Cheers

Stanley4E: So that drivers ahead of it on the road can read
it (correctly) as AMBULANCE in their rear-view
mirrors, and yield the right of way.
If the word was not reversed, the drivers of the
cars ahead of the vehicle would see:
"ECNALUBMA."
Of course, if it has flashing lights and sirens
going, they would yield to it anyway. Perhaps
this was done so that drivers would not mistake
an ambulance for a police vehicle with similar
lights.

MOD please get this to front page to educate others. thanks


THATS A NEW ONE...I HAVE TAKEN NOTICE

Besides, even when ambulance drivers on lagos roads are "horning like no tommorrow" withl full light, and also shouting "give way, ambulance here" lagos "go slow"/traffic nor gree them move. Besides, lagos wawawa drivers "drags" road with ambulance and police vehicles.
