WX53 ZLY Here is a 55-registration Ford Transit Connect and a 53-registration DAF truck both belonging to the National Blood Service. They both carry the same livery of a wide red stripe. The truck is a ‘bloodmobile’ which allows people to donate blood in a mobile hospital-style environment. The Transit Connect is used to carry around supplies of blood and related paraphernalia.



The rear view of the Ford Transit Connect. It carries a full-width light bar at the front of the roof and has two repeater blue lights at the rear of the roof. The Road Traffic Act permits the NBS to use blue flashing lights when an urgent request comes in from a hospital. However they cannot break the speed limit when using them which can sometimes appear unusual to following drivers.
