    What do you think of CHP’s new siren?

    • @RedHat2023
      @RedHat2023 Před 2 lety +25

      Honestly, I don't care much. I don't live in the US, so it's not something I really need to worry about it. However I like the Whelen CenCom Core tones. They sound nice on the CHP units. Same with their new patterns. It's a sick upgrade.

    As a retired police officer I urge people to keep in mind that when emergency vehicles pass you with lights and sirens, don't be in a hurry to pull back into traffic, there may be more coming. The video shows just that happening with a couple of police cars having to avoid colliding with vehicles that have driven back into their paths.

    Sounded much louder than the Sheriffs siren, that’s a plus.

      It’s because of speaker location. CHP puts the speaker out front on the push bar, but the Ford PIUs have the speaker buried behind the plastic bumper cover by default so you lose a lot of sound pressure.

    Pretty much the siren sounds used in Australia
