=== Anime and Manga ===

* In the various ''[[Brave Series]]'' (which you probably just know of from ''[[GaoGaiGar]]''), the good robots are all various public service vehicles. Unsurprisingly, both ''Braves'' and ''Transformers'' were based on toylines from the same company.

=== Live-Action TV ===

* ''[[Rescue 911]]''

* ''[[Third Watch]]''

⚫

* The ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' games let you try out each of these in the [[Sidequest|secondary missions]].

=== Toys ===

* ~~The~~ [[Transformers~~|Autobots~~]] had quite a few whose vehicle form was an emergency vehicle.

* ''[[Transformers]]'': The Autobots had quite a few whose vehicle form was an emergency vehicle.

** As far as Transformers go, it's probably worth noting that the ''[[Transformers Generation 1|Generation 1]]'' combiner team the Protectobots who form Defensor are made entirely up of these vehicles (Hot Spot-fire engine, Streetwise-police car, Groove- an [http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Scale oddly large] police motorcycle, First Aid-ambulance, Blades-air ambulance), and that the main cast of ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' consists of these vehicles plus a military vehicle (despite appearances, Bumblebee is a police car).

*** Technically, Bulkhead is a police APC (Why do cops in the future have [[APCs]]?) He's only olive green because that's his natural color. In the pilot you can clearly see that the probes are scanning otherwise identical blue [[APCs]] that the police own. The only Autobot who is a military ~~vehicule~~ is Ultra Magnus, who's a Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck. Interestingly, the other tfree members of the Elite Guard (Jazz, Blurr and Sentinel Prime), transform into civilian ~~vehicules~~, despite being actual members of the Autobot military, whereas the main crew of Autobots were just a repair team that [[Jumped At the Call]].

* ''[[Rescue Heroes]]'' was a cartoon [[Merchandise-Driven|based on a toyline]] that featured an elite team of emergency service members who operated like [[superhero]]es, but focused entirely on rescuing people rather than fighting crime.

⚫

* The aptly named ''Emergency'' series of ~~videogames~~ is centred around managing various emergency personnel to, well, solve emergencies. This often involves using two or all three of the emergency services.
