Sirens late at night, When responding to a call in the “middle of the night” do Fire/EMS have to sound the sirens even though traffic is probably light?
Yes, state vehicle code mandates that while responding Code Three, an emergency response vehicle must have all emergency lights on and the siren sounding. A Code Three response is initiated when life, property or the environment is in immediate jeopardy (ie. bleeding, breathing problems, fire or hazardous materials going down a storm drain).
