First Responders need to attend meetings with Traffic Engineers . Traffic Engineers can greatly increase emergency response times and safety while responding. Does your State/ City/County emergency vehicle preemption system work ? Are there funds that keep the system repaired ?
Emergency Vehicle Preemption Systems http://www.gtt.com/emergency-vehicle-preemption
Independent studies* show that Emergency Vehicle Preemption can:
• Reduce intersection crash rates by up to 70%
• Improve response times by up to 25%
• Minimize investment for stations and vehicles
• Decrease liability for crashes with other motorists
• Increase adherence to NFPA Standard 1710
