Why the word "ambulance" is written in reverse on an ambulance


The letters of the word AMBULANCE are printed backwards and are reversed in sequence so that drivers ahead of it on the road can read it (correctly) as AMBULANCE in their rear-view mirrors, and yield the right of way. 

If the word was not reversed, the drivers of the cars ahead of the vehicle would see: "ECNALUBMA." 
The word is seen correctly in the driver's rear-view mirrors
