Bill Summary

Relative to the use of sirens by volunteer emergency medical technicians. Transportation.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 16 of Chapter 90 to allow volunteer emergency medical technicians (EMTs) to use sirens while responding to calls, in addition to the existing provision that allows sirens to be used to call fire fighters. The key change is the addition of the phrase "or call members of an emergency medical service" to the existing law, which expands the allowed use of sirens to include volunteer EMTs.
