As a side note... Since I am hearing I might mention the topic of emergency vehicle sirens.
When I am driving and hear that noise I usually end up frantically looking to see where the noise is coming from to make sure that I'm not in the vehicles, "line of fire". And I hate that.
Honestly I think I would respond better with the noise turned off because if you're paying attention to the road the lights are there.
And yes. We need to get off our cell phones.
