Four ambulances with a blue and yellow color scheme will be added to the EMSA fleet.  

Officials said the design saves EMSA about $2,000 compared to the current red, white and blue design and also has added safety features.

Eventually, all of EMSA's ambulance and vehicle fleet in Tulsa and Oklahoma City will be updated with this new look, which is expected to take several years.

Just inside the entrance to the parking lot for the store, the ambulance was struck on its passenger side by a Nissan SUV.

The SUV sustained extensive front-end damage, while the ambulance, belonging to the company EasCare Ambulance Services, sustained damage to its passenger side.

Lee County fire fees – a $50 per structure property tax collected for large buildings such as barns or houses – and the ambulance transport fees funded the $195,902.25 ambulance. With updated technological features superior to previous models, the vehicle will serve Smiths Station citizens who invested in the new $20,000 worth of additional equipment on board. Smiths Station Mayor F.L. “Bubba” Copeland emphasized the importance of reliable medical services with technologies to solve a vast array of medical issues, but Copeland reiterated the vital role of firefighters and volunteers.
