New Ambulance Siren Sounds Like Gunfire
THERE IS WORD GOING AROUND THAT A NEW SIREN is going on the market soon for ambulances. Disturbed that so many people are ignoring sirens now and refusing to make way for emergency vehicles, the inventor has introduced an additional setting on the electronic siren that sounds like machine-gun fire.
Reportedly, it has been field tested somewhere in Oklahoma where the following quote originated:
An ambulance driver currently participating in that pilot program, who wished to remain anonymous, recalled his experience with the siren: “Well, it’s been a mixed-bag, really. We’re using these sirens so other drivers will actually move out of the way and let us get to the hospital - and believe me, the other drivers do get of the way. They get out of the area altogether, actually - sometimes leaving the city limits. We were just hoping for a clear lane through traffic, but we pretty much get the whole road to ourselves.”
