The first NYPD one is similar to the parking enforcement and usually used on small local precints, where the big ones usually have Crown Vic, Dodge Charger and Chevy Impala.

Caption on photo:
This is the equipment used by the London Ambulance Service's skateboard response unit (which is part of the cycle unit). The photo shows the ambulance back-pack with essential emergency care equipment, as well as the protective equipment worn by the skater. The board is in European-standard ambulance yellow with LAS wording, crest and NHS logo.

Used in the uk!
This is an ambulance gondola. It is used on the Nevis Mountain Range amongst regular 6-person cable cars that transport people from 300ft to 2150ft in 12 minutes. If a person was injured on the mountainside, this specialist gondola is added to the system and moved to directly above the casualty. From there they can be winched up into it and then transported back down the mountain to safety.

just noticed this today looking at this thing its a tiller truck from the neighboring city to mine, which in co-incidence is the capitol of NC, but yeh 
The tiller has a pump on it, never seen that before, dont know if you guys have, btw its a 2004 Pierce Arrow XT 100' ladder

Why is it that firefighters are able to run into a burning building while others run out? It is because each firefighter knows that if he can save one life, put out one more fire, then people can keep on living their normal lives and they have the courage to keep going back to work each day.

Never understood how not having a basket makes it easier? Seems like it would be the other way around.A tiller usually refers to the tractor drawn aerial ladder that many departments still operate, here's an example of one from LA. http://upload.wikime...adder_truck.jpg
many FDs from major cities operate these because they tend to have a longer reach than most of the tower units, as well as not having a bucket to interfere with the extrication of someone from a balcony or window.
Those are pretty common in the states I believe. You only see them in high traffic areas for parking enforcement but still very common.

A tiller has the same benefit as a strait stick truck, in that they don't have the basket to block their patch with a direct entry into a building say through a window or balcony, with a basket you would first have to be raised up in the basket and then climb over the edge of the basket and into the entry point which is very dangerous I might add, and the advantage of a tiller over a strait stick is that they can maneuver better in city streets because the wheels on the tiller can be turned to provide easier handling.
In fact if you watch this video you can see this in action:
This video is of the Raleigh Fire Department's Station 1, at the station are Engine 1, Engine 13, and Ladder 4 *Formerly Ladder 1*, which had a crash in June taking a corner too fast and flipped.

That's the old Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
This is the new one and I think this one can go 160 mph.
