This is because the word AMBULANCE can be read through a rearview mirror of the vehicle in front of it.
The word "Ambulance" is printed backwards on the front of the ambulance so you can read it in the mirror the right way around
So a driver in front of an ambulance can read the word when they look in the rear view mirror
The word ambulance on an ambulance is backwards because when you're in front of an ambulance and there's an emergency you would usually see from your rear view mirror. When you see something in a mirror it is always backwards. so when you see the word ambulance on an ambulance, you would see it normally.
Type one ambulance means an ambulance... which is type one.
Because when you see it in your rear-view mirror, It reads AMBULANCE, and you know to pull over to let it pass.

The aim of this is to allow people driving in front of the vehicle (ambulance) to see the word "AMBULANCE" when he/she looks in the rear view mirror. If the word was not reversed, the driver of the car ahead of the vehicle would see: "ECNALUBMA"
Reflection refers to seeing something through something else-- such as a mirror. Have you ever looked in your rear view mirror at the front of an ambulance and realized that the word "Ambulance" could be read easily? That is because it is written backwards on the vehicle. The word in the reflection is correct . . . without the use of the mirror, it is unreadable.
