I drove & rode for 42 years as a volunteer firemen and ambulance driver. If you responding to an EMERGENCY the lights and SIRENS were being used. Maybe not on the residential street but at ALL intersections and ALWAYS on the main drags. You as the driver and officer in the front seat are liable and I wasn't being sued or going to jail for fear of waking someone up. I think the responders in TV are very conservative with their sirens and I'm only 3 blocks from Station 51. JMO
