I love the detail on the ambulance, even the word "ambulance" is mirrored
Why is it mirrored?
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
Nope, that's it!
Edit: picture of one https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTjvM5N7qC4Cg7Hy-RfR-ZQvtIqtmaSCpnZ4gKqJoC3EKCECigRlNkvqL6S&s=10
Huh, what country is this ambulance design from?
Australia (Victoria)
ah damn, fair enough
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.
And presumably in the rear-view mirror as well :P
Oh wow. That makes sense
Unless you’re James May and forget to mirror the letters themselves: https://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/topgear/images/3/37/Top-Gear-James's_Undertaker_Ambulance.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150312140601
