Roundabouts are preferable to stoplights, better for traffic flow.

[@ncoppens]

And much safer.

[@formatique_arschloch]

Absolutely.

[@marktegrotenhuis]

Only with low to medium traffic density. If there's too much traffic, traffic at roudabouts gets stuck more easily than at traditional crossings with lights.

[@therealdutchidiot]

@@marktegrotenhuis After that, you first move to turbo roundabouts though.

[@marktegrotenhuis]

@@therealdutchidiot true 👍🏻

That;s the entrance of Sophia's children hospital and my heart almost broke again. In September 2011, my then 12 yo son was escorted the same way from our local hospital to this amazing hospital while having a deadly asthma attack. Unfortunately he slipped into a coma just 2 hrs after arriving there but, thank God and the amazing staff and doctors there and from the Erasmus MC (12 of them slept in the hospital to watch over my son) he woke up after 9 days. In 2009 I was also rushed to the EMC due to a heart attack caused by my chemo - and I too made it. Whoever this patient was, I can only pray that they made it and are healthy and strong now, and that they are blessed with a wonderful life. My heart goes out to everyone in this situation. And dear people, please keep having respec for those who watch over us and do their best to keep us healthy and safe. At the end of the day, they are humans too, like you and me, but they chose to do this amazing, underrated and underpaid jobs, for us all.

[@MrWiggenhammer]

I was wondering why they took this entrance as they usually take another. Sad but great to see the effort put in by our police and ambulance services.

[@Snaakie83]

Mooi verhaal Mya, hope any medical misfortune will pass you by nowadays. Stay healthy!

When my brother was 6 years old he was transported like this to a hospital. It was a close call but he made it. Thanks to véry skilled police officers, the paramedics and the doctors in that hospital. I love videos like this. Every time I watch them I'm in awe and reminded again how lucky I am that my big brother is still alive.

[@tieman3790]

Nice! My little brother was transported via helicopter. Very lucky to have him too. He wasnt even a year old yet. 18 years later alive and well

[@Marruk8865]

Nice to see you like these videos! I started this KZbin channel when I worked at Team Verkeer Den Haag (2007-2017) Most of the videos you see me riding;) It was a great job and I was very proud! The motorcycle in the video is a BMW K1600GT (Yes! 1600cc 6 Cill)

[@blueberrypieology3088]

Thank you. Been a long time follower of Team Verkeer. And thank you for your service. As many others in the comments, I also had someone dear who had had this escorted ambulance ride. So grateful.

[@EEEGotomtom]

To answer your question at 5:58, why some many roundabouts. They are simply way more efficient then traffic lights in many situations. They keep traffic flowing but also break up the otherwise straight road forcing you to lower speeds. Essentially they double as an obstacle forcing you to pay attention and drive more safely.

[@Zeebats]

And because safety for the huge amount of people on bikes

[@ProvidenceNL]

I learned so much about our infrastructure that i never thought about because of the channel NotJustBikes, he handles on this subject as well.

[@charlesmallo]

Police escort is not only provided for the fast transport like this. Escorts are also provided for Mobile Intensive Care Units and ambulances transporting partients with brain or spinal injuries who drive slow. The escort ensures a smooth ride so patients don't move because of braking actions.

[@Arnaud58]

Hi Paul, nice one again. There are 3 motorcycles driving in front of the ambulance(s). The first 2 do the work shown in the video, they are in contact with the 3rd, the commander. He continues to drive shortly in front of the ambulance and signals them with hand signals which lane to use and whether the speed is increasing or decreasing. They ride on a: BMW R1250 RT, 136HP petrol boxer engine Acceleration (0-62 mph): 3.1 seconds Top speed (mph): > 125 mph

[@charlesmallo]

Usually the commander drives a car.

[@Arnaud58]

@@charlesmallo Of course you know better... but this is a quote from the original video posted by the "Verkeerspolitie Den Haag" themselves: "Een ambulancebegeleiding word in principe gedaan door 3 motorrijders van Team Verkeer (1 commandant en 2 spitsers) In deze video kijk je mee met 1 van de spitsers."

[@dutchman7623]

@HxC These motorbikes have standard exhausts. So standard factory. Many motorbikes remove mufflers to be more impressive with noise.

[@DhrAckers]

​@@Arnaud58 The Commander drives in a car or by bike. It depends alot on each situation.

This police KZbin channel has lots of beautiful videos. This ride was relatively calm. Some are during rushour and in bad weather. Their skill is amazing.

wow, i'm from the netherlands, and to see this from the police perspective is very impressive. proud of my country. thank you for this video. God bless you.

[@Musicality-66]

Sweaty palms the whole time. My father was an ambulance driver for over 40 years. So I heard his story’s once in a while. Mad respect for the police who cleared the path and the ambulance driver who had to match that speed. Proud of The Netherlands. 💕🚑

[@zulawoo]

There's a genuine sense of actual authority here. You move for an ambulance, you move for a firetruck or police car with the lights on. You listen and obey their commands, because you know there is a good reason. It doesn't happen alot, but when it does. you just listen.

[@Fire-Queen]

You felt like a little kid on a ride along... Seeing as they stopped at the children's hospital, there was a child in severe distress in the high speed ambulance, being moved to a pediatric ICU. Hats off to the verkeerspolitie Den Haag/traffic police the Hague! And the ambulance driver, and to you, for reacting to these kinds of videos as well, showing how it can be done ✅

[@dorindas7330]

Oh and as a nurse I completely agree with you! Get out of the way...it could be a loved one or someone you know. But even if it isn't ... they are someone's loved one!

[@Aviertje]

I don't think you mentioned it (or I missed it coming up!) but these kinds of escorts are almost always hospital-to-hospital, and are intended for transfers of patients who are in really bad straights or immense pain. The intent is to keep the space of the ambulance as constant as possible by avoiding all the usual speeding up and down as well as avoidable bumps that could lead to complications as the EMT / doctors in the back of the ambulance try to keep that person alive.

[@z.b.95]

Ore organs for donating

[@sighvatssohn]

Well not in this case. There is a large local hospital 3 miles away, but due to budget cuts is does not have the proper emergency facilities. Start point is a home address (Jordaanstroom in Zoetermeer).

[@ProvidenceNL]

Roundabouts are amazing. Fuck traffic lights. People just need to learn to drive here so they actually work, compared to the US where you get your drivers license with a cereal box. Also the best thing about this is, this does not cost the person in the Ambulance anything extra! Universal healthcare is a blessing. Also subbed, i like reaction videos and had no idea people reacted to this stuff haha!

[@froukjeellen9645]

every time I see these kinds of videos it makes me super proud that I am Dutch. The great thing about this video is that they do this for everyone. Whether you live on the streets or in an expensive neighborhood. You will not be asked in advance about your health insurance. If you need help, you'll get it. If necessary with police escort or helicopter.

[@jamboree2723]

Prachtig om dit te zien! Dankjewel voor je reactie. Een goed geoliede machine!

[@XIIIStefanC]

In my short 30 years of life I have seen quite a few areas which had traffic lights get converted to roundabouts and man it surprises me every time how much more efficient and faster they are for keeping traffic going :D

[@PrinsPrygel]

I used to binge their videos. Seeing the cooperation between that many moving parts is fascinating, leap-frogging from intersection to intersection, so cool to watch.

[@JaapGinder]

This type of ambulance assistance is common. There are many videos to be found. This is part of the duties of the Dutch police. Almost daily work. 'Verkeerspolitie Den Haag' means: 'Traffic police The Hague'. The hospital where they went is the University Hospital 'Erasmus MC (Medical Centre)' in Rotterdam. I work nearby that hospital, so we hear daily ambulances.

[@gekevandenberg3601]

I like to see the ones where you hear them communicate with each other. Respect for the men and women who are trained to escort the ambulance and other transport.

[@codex4046]

owh yeah the ones where they say "straight left" etc to indicate which lane for going straight is freed up? They are great to see indeed.

[@helmalaurier6200]

In Holland we even have traffic lights that turn red by the sound of sirens from first aid responders.

[@hendrikusscherphof7348]

Dutch traffic planners love roundabouts. they slow down traffic on intersections without needing to fully stop them with traffic lights or risking side-collisions. Also kudos to the learning driver at 7:00, if it's up to me they can get their license right now

[@AwoudeX]

Have you considered that it was the instructor taking charge of the vehicle making the correct move while the fresh first lesson student all but panicked?

[@emmap1250]

I used to pass 10 roundabouts going from home to work. Distance just 5 km. Just like in the video it keeps traffic going and no need to close down a complete crossing when an ambulance has to go to a hospital. Great job by the policemen.

[@orangeguppie6897]

Thanks Highly, for me this was like a thriller, i lived in Rotterdam and experienced this , i was 20 years old ( 63 years old now and i live at the countryside for many years) but they needed a lot of police cars to block every street for safe passing of the ambulance, now three motorcops , amazing cooperation between everybody involved!!! Thumbs up for these motorcops. Still feeling the tension after ten minutes thanks again, see you, bye

[@karin10987]

So very proud of these police men working together in Holland. ❤

[@Brother_Bear_]

7:45 it's so good because dutch police are actually trained to do their job

[@kayz-art]

It's beautiful to watch indeed. And incredible how they get everyone to do what they want with just a few hand gestures. People have no clue what's happening, yet everyone cooperates without even knowing what they're supposed to do. Amazing.... Indeed we have a LOT of roundabouts here. They work very well, but can be challenging in situations like these obviously. But they don't happen all that often. When an ambulance requires a police escort it's usually because speed is of the essence or they really can't hit the brake because of a certain medical procedure happening in the back, or both.

[@AwoudeX]

It is required by traffic law to first obey an officer redirecting traffic instead of signs or traffic lights. Not that amazing when you consider it's part of earning your driver's license.

[@kayz-art]

@@AwoudeX that's just one rule of text in a book. Seeing it actually work and seeing how an officer masters this to perfection is still amazing

[@SwirlingSoul]

A sad thing being handled so positively is awesome to watch!

[@jackyfriedman1963]

Wow!!! I was enthralled too. Very intense. I couldn't take my eyes off this. Very organized. All countries should be like that.

[@blue_light_photographer421]

In the Netherlands we know this phenomenon as a VTB (traffic technical guidance) or as an emergency transport. Such trips are often organized if, for example, a patient has to be in a hospital as soon as possible or if a patient is so unstable (for example due to neck & back injury). In the latter case we speak of a ''sliding transport'' which actually means as smooth as possible. So without much braking or accelerating. The gentlemen who provide these accompaniments, and in particular Team The Hague, are highly specialized and receive training throughout the year in guiding ambulances and VIPs. Then answer your questions. we have so many roundabouts because it has been proven that roundabouts are better for traffic flow as opposed to traffic lights. It is also a lot safer because cars have to slow down so that cyclists and pedestrians are seen earlier. the police rides on The BMWs (BMW R 1200 RT) are used for traffic surveillance (these are the motorcycles you see in the video, you find them very quiet, but in reality there is a wonderful sound underneath). the Yamahas (type MT-07 Tracer) are used for neighborhood surveillance. These are the light motorcycles Unfortunately my english writing is not sufficient so I used google translate so some words will not be correct. But I assume the context is clear.

[@degamebaas4289]

Is de K1600GT waar ze mee rijden volgens mij 😉

[@ljbmv7305]

You did english well. I could understand you. Thank you for your command.

[@dianavanhaaften3152]

Never thought about how they do that. Very very organised. Yes, we have many roundabouts. Thank you for your reaction 🧡🧡🧡✌

[@jgowner6076]

These escorts are mainly to provide a smooth ride for the patient. Certain patients are really unstable and therefor can't take a lot of excessive braking or acceleration. These officers make sure the ambulance never has to brake excessively or quickly accelerate to get to their destination (to the officers, unnecessary braking for the ambulance seems like a fail). But it also speeds up the ride for the ambulance, but these escorts are most commonly used for patient who are in a life threatning and therefor unstable condition.

[@arjankleene]

To show just how important a smooth ride is, compare kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHLFcmCqiqueo8U and kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoilhWCkgdKrbrM . Very similar routes, the former takes just over 18 minutes, the latter adds another 12 minutes.

[@thijshagenbeek6554]

Little heads up. - Officers that perform a Ambulance escort are allowed to exceed the speedlimit to ensure they arrive as soon as possible at the next junction/roundabout exc. This is to clear any lanes that need to be free, stop traffic, and communicate with the widest possible timeframe. - The drivers course the officers get is mental, these officers know how to ride. - When a officer comes in with all sirenes and lights on, all orders, both verbal and signalled must be heeded. Hey may stop traffic, clear lanes to the point he may direct traffic in any direction if required. Not heeding these orders will usually after a warning result in concequences i.e a fine exc. - If required or the situation demands a escort may clear or requisiton drive lanes usually reserved for specific traffic I.e Buslanes, tramlines or the shoulder of the freeway. - Officers are allowed to cross full striped lanes, pass traffic on the right side, ignore stopsigns, and ignore red lights exc, when under sirenes and lights. The name of the game is speed. However, safety for the officers and other traffic users is paramount. - Usually officers are quite friendly and easygoing, when under situations like escort duty, they do not muck about, it shows, and they will only assert themselves that way if its needed. - Officers have a basic 3 year training program. It results in as shown a very capable police force. - Handsignals that the officers use are required theory in the Dutch drivers exam, atleast in my time atleast 5 questions would be about handsignals or verbal ones ifnot more.

[@thesillypig785]

We work at 2 hospitals quite often including the area where the ambulances come in. 99% of the time it's not that serieus, the ambulance pulls in and the patient gets unloaded, all very calmly. But that one time when they come in blasting their sirens and a bunch of people are already waiting inside you know it's not good.

[@ergberg]

Netherlands is filled with roundabouts instead of traffic lights. They gave up on the "stop signs", wich seem to work fine in North America. Dutch like to save time, yet its also filled with speedbumps not so much fun for ambulances and truckdrivers and costing a lot of time. Also "smart"traffic lights, unlike the States, they respond to the traffic flow and some can also be switched to red in emergencies like these and hold all traffic at crossings. tx for the video 🍀💎

[@gfimadcat]

We're lucky in NL that even a normal ambulance run rarely has issues. They do these escorts for things like getting people transported between hospitals, often there's only so much time they have to do it so then they call for police escort and... well, this happens :D If I'm not mistaken there's like 3 motorcycles involved, and 1 car .The motorcycles leapfrog eachother to block intersections, the car coordinates, and the ambulance follows the whole thing.

[@RobertKhoe]

Two motorcycles and either a car or a motorcycle for the commander who stays directly in front of the ambulance.

[@fkb9490]

This not really about getting the ambulance somewhere fast, but more about keeping it rolling at a constant speed.

[@ModernLove100]

Also the part when they arrived in the part of Rotterdam city with all the tunnels which is to avoid unnecessary traffic jams. Just moments before they arrived at the hospital you can hear the cop say 'even wachten!' which means 'wait a moment!'. When I lived in Zoetermeer city I used to work in Rotterdam city, so this was actually really cool to see for me since I recognized like everything including the hospital that I've visited plenty of times. The bikes those cops ride on are the BMW R 1200 RT type. Modified ones of course. You can sometimes buy these bikes second hand there when they've gotten new ones.

[@ChiaraVet]

About the roundabouts: not only they are way better for traffic flow and safety, but you can find entire papers and researches that explain why in Europe they are replacing traffic lights wherever is possible. The channel Not Just Bikes has a wonderful video about it if I´m not mistaken.

[@franseerlijk1789]

It's not rocket science! In a way it's simple. You have a commander, he'sdriving in front of the ambulance. Then you have the "strikers" they cleare your path. Behind the ambulance is the "tailrider" He cleares all the traffic! Communication is everything. Ofcourse you have to know the route!!! I did it for about 10 years in Amsterdam and its an amazing job!!! Biggest moment is the thumbs up from the driver of the ambulance!!!

[@marienkijne]

The Erasmus MC and attached Sofia childrens hospital are a university hospital, both top notch and suited for highly complex and life threatening medical situations. There are plenty of hospitals that are closer to zoetermeer, suggesting this might have been a child in critical condition and would need to get the best medical care to make it. Hats off to the officers and ambulance crew. I hope it saved whoever was in the back of that ambulance.

Wow you pronounced that flawlessly❣

[@leoschulpen6423]

This team had 3 motor riders , the commander stays in front of the ambulance , the other 2 alternating blocking intersections .

[@darkknight8139]

Many people ask why we don't use helicopters to transport people from hospital to hospital in situations like these. The first reason: the patient is way more stable in the back of an ambulance, than in a helicopter. Second: in The Netherlands, all distances are short. The route in this video is 31 km (~ 20 miles), from the edge of Zoetermeer to the city centre of Rotterdam. It is way more efficient to do it this way. The Dutch police has a special trainig programme for police officers, escorting an ambulance is extremely coordinated. Imagine doing this at rush hour, it will go the same way. These officers have a lot more rights than normal police officers, like stopping traffic ahead and going the wrong way for a few miles, just to avoid traffic jams. And they drive very fast BMW motorcycles, and they are allowed to drive up to 50 km/h (30 mph) more than allowed on a road. Imagine going 50-60 mph in a 20 mph zone. Yes, they can do that safely, because they have had lots and lots of training.

[@hollandduck79]

from the Netherlands thanks for the video HXC . the goal is that the ambulance can maintain as much speed as possible throughout the journey. and of course has a free traffic lane. there are more dutch police motorcycle escorts on youtube. but also police motorcycle escort training videos. and many more Dutch police videos from the highway but also just on patrols in the city. and made by the Dutch police themselves. thanks for the video HXC . Sincerely Hollandduck from the Netherlands

[@spookmineer]

About roundabouts, they're safest: if you crash, it's always at a low speed (how fast can you take a roundabout?) than with usual intersections. I've seen some USA/Canadian crash vids and cars just topple over. That never happens here.

[@TheDarthDre]

as a teenager I once witnessed these police bikes escort a ambulance through heavy traffic in the Hague. they where going blindingly fast with same as here the bikes alternating for each intersection it felt like the ambulance was actually going somewhere near twice the speed limit. later that day I heard on the news some kid shot the janitor on his school in the face one school over from mine. unfortunately the janitor did not make it . but It was damn impressive how fast it all went past everyone.

[@dutchguy1975]

Actually my dad was transported from his work in a shipyard, back in the days to the hospital with police escort when he fell down on his back 11 meters down thats roughly 33 feet. Also i've been in this entrance of the hospital in 2017 when my mom got transported from my city to the Erasmus hospital with a spinal cord injury. I was a ride along with the ambulance but the situation was so stressfull I didnt get to enjoy the ride from the front seat next to the driver.

[@oldgtarz]

When I was in college ('90s), we were tasked with calculating the difference between round abouts and normal traffic light crossings. The round about is much more efficient and safer, even in complex situations. As you know, us dutchies are very economical (or cheap :)) so every minute won in traffic is awesome and to combine that with less accidents and victims is an absolute home run!

[@ModernLove100]

Oosterheem 😂 That's like the newest part of Zoetermeer City and still looks so clean. And I think I also recognized the former Miss Etam building before they pass the Silverdome. This probably is an older video because I thought I recognized the Shurgard storage facility (before they reached the highway on the border of Rokkeveen and Oude Dorp) which burned down to the ground a while ago. The reason why they have so much roundabouts there is because of the huge amount of accidents in the past due to speeding. The way people tend to drive there is crazy for such a small country, not anywhere near as relaxed as in the US. Highway speeds Fast 'n' Furious style within city limits is what caused all the roundabouts and it worked. Occasionally some fool will crash right through one and end up dead or something, but other than that it ain't half as bad as it once was.

[@r6vxtgaming563]

these are the bikes they use BMW R1200 RT-P (2007) Yamaha FJR1300 A (2008) BMW K1600 GT-P (2012) (used in this video) BMW R1250 RT-P (2021)

They dont always escort like this in the netherlands only if the situation calls for it

[@enimaroon4631]

An impressive display by the escort. But also props to all the people in cars and passersby for doing their best to help.Things like this are only possible when the general public is considerate and well educated in traffic laws. The police can be sure that their signs will be understood and followed.

[@AwoudeX]

It is required to have a way more superior way to learn to drive compared to the USA's: 'When i'm 16 my mom and dad will teach me all their bad driving habits' Over here in the Netherlands we've got dedicated schools and if you're average you take about 20 to 30 lessons, a theory exam that includes recognizing danger and what minimum actions to take. The practical exam is harsh. You need to master the vehicle and it's almost always with stick instead of lazy automatic sleep driving (or with phone in hand because you never need to shift) and by the time you've received the little pink pass with your photo on it, you've earned that license.

[@dordt078]

The signs the police give were taught at drive school lessons if i remember. And an emergency transport gets broadcasted at the local radio station with as much route info as possible. Makes people aware.

This part of Zoetermeer is seriously full of roundabouts.

I live near Erasmus MC. Actually at 15:16 the motorist passed my house. Its also near Rotterdam airport, they also passed. Whenever organs land on the airport similar happens, but even on a larger scale. When that happens the whole route will be prepared, before the plane lands. The traffic at the entire route will be stopped. All junctions will be posted with these motorized policemen.. It doesn't matter when. I saw it happen during rush hour when thousands of people commute... They are all stopped. Make way for the ambulance!!! That is a weird experience. Suddenly all movements stop. People who never saw it before, look around slightly puzzled... what is happening? Silence despite so many cars, bikes, people....al waiting for what's going to happen. Then, in the far distance, one can hear a sirene coming nearer and nearer. In one minute it's near, in s spli second the yellow ambulance passed, and ten seconds later the policemen are gone. It gives me goosebumps ever time I experience it. So many people doing their best for a human being fighting for his/her life in Erasmus MC 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

A video of the same channel "Commandant Ambulancebegeleiding Haga zkh. loc. Leyweg naar LUMC 13-11-2015 (met mobilofoonverkeer)". I bet that you like it. The regions around Amsterdam, Den Haag (The Hague), Rotterdam and Utrecht toghetter is the busiest region of the Netherlands. It called 'Randstad'. Approximately 46% of the Dutch population lives in the Randstad. The most of them lives under sealevel. Without dikes, dunes and so on, you have 'Amersfoort by sea'.

As there were two ambulances behind the police motors, it means that they already had to do CPR at the patient's house, this was really an urgent matter, not just for the smooth ride.

Love seeing my hometown in a reaction video...And you get used to the roundabouts when you get used to them they are pretty fast because in low traffic most of the time you don't have to make a full stop.

At the last part of the video they now made a specific lane for the paramedics. It’s in Rotterdam.

From Zoetermeer (my hometown) to Rotterdam. Good job!!
