It looks like the YPD changed from black/white to blue/white somewhere around 1985. 
 
I know I'm bumping up an old thread but I'm doing it to hopefully spark some more photos of vintage YPD cars. I'm looking for photos of '90s YPD Caprice's

Got this pic at the ER Today late model Nissan SUV They are a private EMS service in the area

Empress EMS is the new contractor for Montefiore EMS. They are running 4 ALS trucks to start, as part of the NYC 911 EMS system, and went into service the other night after months of hard work and planning. This is one of the four trucks (2016 Ford F-350 4x4/AEV Traumahawk), and the Supervisor truck (2016 Ford Expedition).
 

 

The newest patrol vehicle for BPD is this 2018 Ford Police Interceptor SUV. 
It replaces a 2011 Ford CVPI and has been assigned Car 267. 
 
 

Awesome looking truck

I as well listen to the scanner in my neck of the woods.  Lodi Ohio.  We have our own Emergency Department and travel time is minimal.  From when crew gets on scene is a 5-8 mins transport to ED.  There is no need for ALS unless they are going with the crew.  Some of the outlying areas where its 15-20 mins or maybe longer maybe ALS could be needed.  I worked for Alamo EMS (RIP), Beacon VAC and Marlborough VAC (also RIP) where the magic powers were have ALS meet enroute to the hospital.  Is that something that could be done???   EMD protocols are only as good as the caller. 
 
CALLER Im having chest pain with pain radiating to my arm
 
Sometimes stands for "I shouldn't have had that taco earlier
 
A pulled foley catheter should never need ALS. 

Visibility for that has to come into play a little?????

Hi everyone I wanted to introduce myself.  Im Rob Tillson.  I am on Facebook and originally from NY (Yonkers 1st and then Hyde Park 2nd).  I do collect patches from different departments and do make diecast vehicles in 1:64 scale.  I currently live in Lodi, Ohio and still love the Westchester County area FD / PD / EMS.  I work as an EMT for a private company called Life Care Medical Services.  Thanks for listening to my ramble and hope to be a part of more discussions.

So what separates a fly car from a full blown ambulance doing a meet and assist.  Alamo used to run sometimes from Poughkeepsie to Beacon all the time

Who cares what he was doing. He was distracted and obviously didn't see a huge red fire truck with flashing lights on it Having the rig protecting the scene basically saved the brothers. This is why using the rig to block the scene is key. Rigs are replaceable the brothers aren't

 
While there is no restriction, that I am aware of, of using an ambulance as a fly car, it might cause some awkward conversation on the scene with some of the family members, who might not be up on emergency operations. Especially if there is a delay in getting another ambulance to the scene. you know, paging out several times for a crew even if after waiting( as I have) before telling disp. that I'll ride it in BLS, just get me an ambulance please. I can see it going something like this....
 
"What are we waiting for, my (pick your loved one, wife, husband, child etc) needs to get to the hospital"
" I'm sorry we're waiting for an ambulance"
"Isn't that an ambulance out front" 
"No, that's my fly car"
"It says it's an ambulance"
"Well its a little complicated, you see my (fill in organization) has some difficulty keeping appropriate vehicles on the road some times so we're filling in with what we have in order to to serve the community"
Family member mumbles under breath "The only thing you're serving me is a load of B*##@%&+" "Does it have one of those, whatchamacallits, little beds inside"
"Yes, but I don't have any one else to drive"
"Can't one of the other (half dozen or so) responders (getting in their points) standing around drive for you"
"Well, no they're from a different agency and our insurance won't cover them"
"Well I haven't had an accident in over 20 years, not even a parking ticket, I'll be happy to drive. I'll sign any wavier of liability you want"
"Thank you for the offer, but I can't allow that either"
"Oh hell I'll drive them myself" (after hearing the third or forth page for this location)
" I'm sorry you can't do that until you sign my RMA form"
"RMA form? What's that"
"Well, that says you're Refusing Medical Assistance"
Family member now a little red in the face
"I'm not refusing anything!! You can't get them to the hospital!!"
"Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to control yourself or I'm going to be forced to ask you to leave"
"LEAVE, LEAVE!! THIS IS MY F#*#*&g HOUSE!"
"Sir, sir if you don't get yourself under control I'll be forced to ask the officer to remove you"
It quickly spirals down (as if it could get any worse) from here
 
While this might be a little over dramatized I would rather be spared this particular or similar conversation. While there might not be anything preventing such use I wouldn't want to be involved, thank you. Sending a patient transport vehicle to an emergency and then saying you couldn't transport would be like sending an engine to a confirmed structure fire, KNOWING, that you only have the driver going. (Yeah, I know, unlikely, but it's the only comparison I could think of) "Sorry, I brought the truck but we don't have anyone to man the pumps." Permissible, maybe, but a public relations disaster as the driver and home owner watch the house burn down.
What do you guys out there think? Maybe I should think of starting a new career writing fiction, no? Either that or apply for a job at LoHud! I got it, I could run for President!
