iirc it's so that the text will appear correctly in the side mirrors of a car ahead of the ambulance but I'm sure there's more to it than that

Huh, what country is this ambulance design from?

[–] therealn000b@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Australia (Victoria)

Is this literally the picture that the artist used as reference? Everything matches, even the blue and red on the side

It's because Leonardo da Vinci created the first ambulance.
