Hatzalah of Waterbury has introduced a new fly car to its fleet, enhancing its operational capabilities and decreasing response times during life-threatening situations.
Since being awarded its licensure in January, Hatzalah of Waterbury’s 25 members, including EMTs and paramedics, have responded to more than 600 emergency calls – including two cardiac arrest saves – far surpassing their expected numbers.
Hatzalah is now expanding into smaller towns surrounding Waterbury that are suffering from dire shortages of paramedics, providing mutual aid at tense moments and working collaboratively with the police department, fire department, and all local EMS agencies.
These efforts have quickly paid off, with local agencies relying on and trusting Hatzalah of Waterbury – including the organization receiving a Citation of Organizational Excellence from Waterbury Hospital – allowing it to rapidly expand its services for the frum community and Waterbury residents at large.

Are you saying the car in the picture actually flies?
What is a fly car?
My question as well. What is a fly car? Is it a car that flies? A car for transporting flies? One driven by a fly? Do tell.
Wonderful!!!
Fly car – At first I pictured a car with a propeller on top with both car and helicopter capabilities like how a duckboat can drive and swim. It is however a vehicle that responds to and provides emergency medical services without the ability to transport patients.
I feel pretty dumb now. My reaction to the article was going to be, B”H! What a Kiddush HaShem! How marvelous we are being recognized for our chessed and accomplishments! How special it is that we even share these accomplishments and talents with the community at large! When all along I should have been wondering what a fly-car is.
