I noticed, that in TV news, when sometimes ambulance cars showed, the title written vice versa on them. Why?
EDIT: As long as I remember right, those cars were somewhere (or everywhere  ) in Europe.

It's so when people see them in their car mirrors, they know what it is and to get out of the way.
It's kind of pointless though, as, in my opinion, anyone who doesn;t know what an ambulance looks like/can't read backwards writing should be driving a car anyway. |

Law enforcement in the UK seem to employ mythical one-eyed giants, too - I often see Ecilop on the front of their cars.
