Apologies for bringing dedicated reserved parking into the thread since that is the only experience or interpretation I had. I think parking is a worthwhile tag and I'd use emergency=parking for that, but let's get back to your topic since it sounds more complex.

How are they reserved for emergency vehicles?

I saw the photo of a sign which translates to "fire service installation area", do you have any photos of these areas so we can better understand what they look like (or did I miss that)? For us in Australia emergency services basically use anywhere they like, even if that means blocking a road, but it appears from the video you linked that Germany has very narrow streets and so these areas are important because the streets don't have enough space? If there is a sign declaring a "fire service area" how do you know the extent of that area? -- Jono
