Jaambaro, Pedal Car for Ambulance in Rural Areas of Africa

Due to lack of a medical ambulance, and even a motorized vehicle in rural areas of Africa, designer Benoit Angibaud has come to an idea of creating a pedal-car with a stretcher, called The Jaambaaro. This may sound funny to all of us who lives in the city. However, to those people in Africa, this is a big help for them. The Jaambaaro is driven by two person peddling and assisted by electrical power generated from solar energy. Benoit’s pedal-car is made of sustainable materials, which made it earth friendly. What’s not friendly is the design itself. The stretcher is very visible, that made it looks awkward.
