      1:25 it was probably rebuild of tram lines (they are Warsaw trams not trains) Thery were rebuilt this spring in some places in Warsaw, but Im not living there so… hehe. Enclosed Ambulance drop-offs aren't common from my experience as Pole.

      3:00 It's not a sprise to me that the ambulace is manual since automatic cars in general in Poland can cost twice as much or at least way more then equivalent on manual. So as I said I'm not supprised that the hospital or the city or whoever is responsible for purchasing vehicles for them decided to go cheap. There aren't that many automatic cars here.

      Manual is just common in Europe, so the general rule is most people drive it because that's what other's do, but there's a growing share of automatic ones too, as many casual drivers notice the comfort. If you are a good driver and it makes sense for you to get even a little bit more control or speed (like the ambulance drivers need) then the manual can give you more control over the momentum etc.

      I had some of my driving lessons with an ambulance driver, and he was the chillest instructor with the most knowledge about road laws, car controls and so on. Mad respect. So sad they usually don't earn much and need to have jobs on the side like teaching at driving school, after such intense working day they should be able to rest and not be worried if they can provide for the family!

      Pro tip for using manuel gears:
      While you can use the RPM-meter to tell you when to shift gears, it's actually easier to just listen to the engine and when it's working a bit too hard.

      Fiat Ducato Uses Mostly 2-2, 2.4 and 2.8L 4 Cyl Turbo-Diesel Engines Made by Lancia(FIAT owns Lancia). They are great Race engines, Not the Best for Cargo Ducato
      The engine has Horribly weak Engine brake.
      And the Vans are kind of stiff. I really hated them Compared to MB sprinter or French Vans. For cargo hauling. Great for Ambulance though You need speed.
      Thats not saying Ducato is bad, its Just not that good at heavy Loads.
      I used to drive 1.5t delivery in a Hilly Town area. We changed brake pads every 2 months. All braking is on The brakes. Zero Engine brake. But Most vehicles are Manual due to Expense and Mixed terrain in Europe. Many countries also reqiure Manual to pass the driving test. And shifting is second nature.

      You are not gonna find many ambulances running on Gas. Maybe Methane recently. Range on Methane is horrible though.
      But most of Europe provides Public healthcare. Ambulance is free for emergency(if you are very old they will drive you home)
      So They are On and about 24/7.
      So Diesel wins hands down. They can't be in service depot or broken.

      I was an EMS driver and I prefer manual transmission. I had two or three automatic. They sucked. Less control in the winter and overall. You have better feel through the stick shift.

      in poland most of the cars is manual and im 95% sure that he privately also drives manual, so here its not a big deal

      In Poland the yellow marks on the roads are just temporary because of the construction/renovation. Generally, in Europe the manual gearbox is a standard. Thanks for the film.

      In europe almost every van (also these ambulance vans) are typically a 2L or 2,3L 4cyl diesels with a 6speed manual, some gas v6 is a really powerful rare car here in europe (for a standard car, the expensive ones do offer more than 4cyl)

    21. Hyzenthlay on

      Here in Europe most people would say that if you have to think about changing gear then you're not a good driver. Gear shifting becomes an autonomous reflex basically, like breathing. You don't even need a rev counter or hear the engine, you can feel what's right. I can understand americans feeing it's a lot of work, especially in an ambulance, but when manual is all you drive all the time, it just becomes an autonomous action.

      Not that anyone cares, my first car was manual Ford Orion,
      after that i had automatic Volvo 440, after that i got manual 525 Bmw,
      then i had a automatic Nissan Bluebird,
      after that i had manual Opel astra,
      now my curret car is automatic WV Golf.
      The next car will logically be Manual i think
      Also the time when i was a cab driver,
      i have driven Volvo S80, V70, XC60,V90
      and they were all automatic for a reason 😅

      This speedometer… Hmmm.. I don't think it shows correct speed. I know those guys go easily up to 100 kmh on those straight parts in the city. It even feels much faster actually…
