OK, while reading up on the laws that apply to me as a Volunteer FF, it says under emergency vehicle, that we are considered one in our POV, while going to a call, displaying red lights, blah blah blah. BUT, it says we are NOT allowed a siren or audible device that emits a harsh or unreasonable sound.
WTF?
We can speed, go through red lights/stop signs, go against the flow of traffic, (ALL with due regard), but not audibly warn the motoring public?
This sounds like a HUGE liability waiting to happen.
As a Vol. FF in Jersey, I was allowed an electric airhorn. Would that be a harsh or unreasonable audible warning device in Fla?
Thanks for playing!
