Wow, just wow. This is not the President of the United States that needs to be rushed to the hospital. This is 'just' a unknown baby. Yet all streets are blocked and everyone working together to be as fast as possible. In a system that the parents don't need to pay millions of euros for this healthcare and escort, but simply covered by the basic insurance. I love this country

It's 385 euros for every first time per calendar-year if you need specialist service. An ambulance-ride like this with all the extra cops would cost thousands. But it stays at 385, it won't get more than that. This alongside 150 to 175 euros per month mandatory health-insurance. Expensive for our standards; it's been a lot cheaper - but thank Goodness we're not in the USA regarding this matter.

this seems amazing, but it doesn't look too busy here, tbh. Verkeerspolitie Den Haag has hundreds of videos from police escorts to the ambulance (usually done by 2 speeding/clearing way motorbikes & one command bike in front of the ambulance which intstructs ambulance to speed up, slow down, etc.). Some transportations are very fast (motorcycles reaching speed of 210 km/h), some are super slow at like 50-60 km/h, but what has been reiterated there many times is that it's not the speed which is important, but maintaining stability and as least as possible accelerations/decelerations. One of my fav channels :)

Due to the distance, this ride was ridden by two or more teams that relieved each other along the way. So there may be no trained motorcyclists available for the last part of the ride and they do it this way. The car for the ambulance is the commander and he has contact with the control room and the ambulance and all officers can follow the communication so that they know exactly where they are so that they can clear the intersections in time.

This video is 5 years old and originally posted by the father (camera man) of this child. Air transport was NOT an option so road transport was needed. It is good to see how most of my fellow dutch men are responding to the ambulance, also most police men who where blocking the intersections did not know who/what/why just a call to go to a specific place and an ambulance is coming that can not be stopped. This is the result.

Anyway, there would be no room for the doctor to stand up, walk around the unit with the baby, and no seating for a nurse and the mother. The ambulance the baby came with, is basically a moving operating room, and the mom can sit beside the driver. The reason these helicopters are relatively small, is bc they can land literally anywhere, as close to the scene of a.g. an accident as possible. Or on a rooftop landing pad.

You should search for "VTB" which is short for "verkeerstechnische begeleiding".

Unlike the USA where all they know is to violate rights and shoot suspects, we've got very well trained people in all disciplines.

The child in question had a condition that was known before birth, it would need special care in Rotterdam's Sophia Child's Hospital were they specialize in this sort of stuff. But the mother went into labour earlier then expected and the child was born in the hospital in Groningen. I'm gonna guess this was filmed from the seat of a regular ambulance (as support vehicle), with the newborn child in a mobile ICU unit (based on small truck chassis) driving behind it. Air transport in a helicopter is not an option as they don't have room for the equipment to keep the child alive during transport. Also if something happens to the child on route you want to be able to pull over, have a stationary workplace to save the childs life instead of having to hover and deal with turbulence or wait to land somewhere.

The guided transport on bikes seems to be the standard practice in most countries. Usually seems to tend to be one escort car and 3-6 bikes depending how close the intersections are to each other. The bikes using their mobility and ability to filter to reposition to the next intersection each time the ambulance passes them with enough time to prioritise clearing traffic on the escorted ambulances route and stop everything else.

The cop explains they have set up a predetermined route to the hospital and everyone in the traffic team know it. The hospital is in the middle of the city, but Rotterdam was rebuilt after the war with a car-centric road network so they can make an easy and fast route without too many corners.

And this transport doesn't make the patient's family bankrupt. It's covered by our health insurance. My mother was brought to the hospital a couple of times to the hospital in her final years. I never saw a bill. I live near this hospital.. it's where my baby sister was born, decades ago. In the old building. This is the new building, the size of a village.

There are a couple of similar escorts from the UK and Ireland where they do things slightly differently using police Motorbikes as a rolling escort, jumping ahead to the next road junction each time, handy when you do not have such a large police force and almost as effective using just a handful of bikes. When it comes to saving childrens lives forces will often go above and beyond what might be expected of them

My mother 20 years ago was part of a team of emergency night doctors here in Lisbon/Portugal. One night, she was on call and at 2am roughly, the cellphone rang. She had to go pick up something as quick as possible. She knew a new road was constructed and approached a police car near the entrance of that road. Explained in no more than 15 seconds what was happening. She was escorted by the police in front to the hospital she needed to be. Again, this happened 20 years ago, in Portugal.

I had such an emergency transport to my rear once. Same entrance into Rotterdam, but this transport was coming in from the south. At the first traffic light (red) a police officer waves me through, while the light is red. So basically upon direct instruction from a cop I run a red light. Huh?? Upon the second traffic light, also red, I'm again waved through. Wait, what? At that point it dawns on me that I'm part of the traffic in front of an emergency transport that needs to be cleared. That's a first for me. Between the roundabout at the off-ramp of the A16 all the way to the Erasmus Hospital there are at least 10 junctions, if I recall them correctly, and at each one there was a stopped patrol car, a stopped police motorbike or a stopped police van and a policeman or policewoman hand-gesturing me and all the cars behind me to continue on despite the red light. It felt strange to deliberately run a red light at the direct instruction of the police. Being directed to do that 10 times in a row was downright surreal. I don't expect to _ever_ get from the outer ring into to Rotterdam city center that quickly again.

The Dutch emergency responders are a state-of-the-art example of this kind of work. Americans take note: ZERO direct costs for the patient, for either the transport or any part of the treatment/medication. It's all covered by the mandatory (and government-subsidised/regulated) health insurance. All Dutch citizens pay reasonable insurance rates that cover these exceptional occurrences. High-cost services which you also might need sometime. You never know.

Props to the police getting the corridor set up so quickly. I would imagine most police departments would have simply provided an escort to block off intersections as the ambulances moves along rather than reassigning that many police officers to set up a corridor. I also would have thought that a helicopter would have faster but maybe they needed more room for equipment or medical personnel.

One thing to note here is that Dutch - and probably most other European - drivers would react to a police car (or ambulance or fire engine) with sirens and flashing lights behind them by getting out of the way, NOT by stopping. If the police want you to stop, they get in front of you and show a red-lettered flashing sign alternating between either “STOP” and “POLITIE” or “VOLG” (follow) and “POLITIE”. In the latter case they lead you to a quiet spot where you can stop safely without obstructing traffic and then stop in front of you. So in the US, with a police car with sirens etc behind them a Dutch driver will get completely confused and try to get on to the sidewalk to get out of the way rather than stopping.
@robeleco1

Yes, but the problem is that in the US the police must drive behind a vehicle, because they must be afraid to get shot if they are in front of a vehicle. With all the weapons they have. At least, that is my presumption. Otherwise I do not know why they do what they do.
