A couple of snaps from the recent holiday.

The bikes are out there to be first responders, arrives before the ambo as it can get through traffic, he can then asses the patient before transport arrives. Perfect for inner city work.

EDIT: Oh and great pics!

Backing up Yorky on this one. The bikes can get through the city and start stabilising before the transport arrives. They can also get down into places like the underground stations and shops and cut minutes off getting the gear down there.

NSW Ambulance has a provisional strength of three bikes but I bet there would be more getting rebuilt every day.

NSW paramedics also have ambulance skidoos on the snow fields and these awesome big tracked ambulance things.
