The emergency services here in Denmark just got a new toy:

It will primarily be used to move ICU patients between hospitals, the text says.

Erm - why does an ambulance need to be that big?? :S

Its an ICU so a hell of a lot of equipment would be needed.

Years ago these guys were running similar things and they are surprisingly quick when they have the blue lights on:

Painting "National Express" on the side has a similar effect...

There are at least 2 Jumbulances in the UK. Left hooker 15m long tri axle VANHOOL DAF's, and are often seen on the M62 in Yorkshire, no doubt going for servicing at Arriva Bus & Coach at Cleckhuddersfax..

There used to be 15 of the things when I last was on one.

This included bendy buses (with a kitchen in the bendy section) and a few that were kind of double deckers (seating above drivers).

I seem to remember one of the drivers many years ago telling me that a normal coach based one had a v12 of a large capacity in there. Certainly there was never a hint of a struggle pulling up the mountains.

What are busses stupposed to be limited to on the motorways?

I've often followed them doing 70mph, great for slipstreaming...

They're allowed to do 70, though I don't think that'd apply for bendy busses.
