Next-generation vehicle comes with features like rumbler sirens to alert motorists in front<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n\r\nFor three years, Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) paramedic Yeo Ren Jie visited ambulance trade shows around the world to find out how these vehicles were designed by other emergency services.\u00a0The 27-year-old staff sergeant (SSG) - who visited them while on holiday in the United States, Germany and Australia - took the best ideas\u00a0such as\u00a0the ambulance rumbler siren, and put them into SCDF's next-generation ambulance, which was unveiled yesterday at the SCDF work- plan seminar at ITE College East.\r\n

\r\n\r\nAlso unveiled at the workplan seminar were other new SCDF vehicles, as well as a restructured community preparation programme to combat the terror threat.\r\n

The new ambulance rumbler siren<\/h2>\r\nIt is also equipped with a rumbler siren. This emits low frequency sound waves that can penetrate vehicles in front of the ambulance and cause them to vibrate slightly.\r\n\r\nThe SCDF hopes this will prompt drivers to give way.\r\n
