Question

Do you recognize this picture?

Why do you think the letters written on the front of the vehicle are written the way they are? Copy them on a paper. Hold the paper in front of a mirror and read it.

Do you see letters written like this anywhere else?

Answer 1

1. The name written in reverse alphabets on the vehicle reads as ‘AMBULANCE’ when viewed in the mirror. In the case of an emergency, it helps a driver to quickly notice an ambulance by looking into his rear view mirror and read the reverse alphabets which appear perfectly normal in a mirror

2. Other than ambulance, we see letters written in reverse on school bus.
