It is spelled backwards on the front of an ambulance vehicle. If they should come up behind you and your vehicle and you look in your rear-view mirror, it will be spelled forward and you will know to yield the right-of-way to them.

So that when you look in your rearview mirror is it spelled correctly & you know that it is an ambulance behind you

So when they check their rear view mirror, the truly clueless will know what kind of vehicle is behind them, flashing its lights and blaring its sirens to get out of the way.

They spell it backwards so when you see it in your rearview mirror you can read it properly.
