ambulances to breeze through traffic.
Russian ambulance taxis are luxury vehicles that are designed to look like
ambulances in order to speed through traffic with their sirens and flashing
lights. The practice is illegal, and Russian police perform random checks
on suspicious ambulances to get them off the roads. Russia's traffic is
known as some of the worst in the world, which is thought to be caused by a
lack of maintenance or signs and little to no enforced road and parking
restrictions. In Moscow, the wealthy have been known to hire Russian
ambulance taxis for prices equal to about $200 US Dollars an hour. The
interiors of these vehicles typically are outfitted like limousines, with
flat screen televisions, leather couches and even champagne and caviar.
