Re: sirens, police etc.

are training runs done in random areas or down the same stretches of road?

I would love to know what the reasoning is for sirens at silly late hours when the roads are empty. That cop who got arrested in the link also didnt have lights on thats why he was done.

Take it from someone who lives in an area with this that having the siren on all the time is less likely to wake people up than turning it on and off. With it on all the time it will start of as a background ambient noise that slowly gets louder so the body will adjust to it easier, versus a sudden loud noise that just occurs aka alarm clock style.
