Increase Firefighter Response Time with a Courtesy Signal on the Road

This novelty responds to a simple need: from his home to the barracks, between the Highway Code to be respected and lack of courtesy on the part of other users, the firefighter can sometimes lose precious minutes on his journey. Unlike the blue beacon, this new type will not be restrictive, it will not give rise to priority, but will on the other hand be a call for courtesy from other road users.

“For the moment, only Quebec uses such a device, indicated Benoit Godart, spokesperson at the Vias Institute for road safety. And the advantages linked to its use are no longer to be demonstrated. There, faced with this visual signal, users show courtesy and facilitate the passage of firefighters.”
