I would like to address this issue now .
If you do not use these appropriately ,I will be filing a complaint to your boss at the main office in Peoria.
I been watching you guys repeatedly do this over and over and is now becoming a serious issue.
Was it necessary to use the multi siren and speed to get back to your station,then get out and walk in?
Was you late for lunch?
There have been a few people including me that have had a near miss accident because of this multi siren going ,cause we all looked around for other emergency vehicles approaching almost hitting another vehicle,and only vehicle that passed was this ambulance with multi sirens wailing .
And the other issue is with you guys speeding all the time .
Is it necessary to drive 20-30 miles over the speed limit from your station to thortons gas station to get gas?
These are unprofessional and would make any patient uncomfortable if they knew how unprofessional you guys are.
It is NOT OK to misuse the lights and sirens for non emergency issues.
Some day you will be responsible for causing a deadly accident for stupid moves like this.
If it is illegal for anyone to have any kind of emergency lights and siren system in there vehicles whether lit or not,then it should be the same for all emergency responders knowing when to use and not use the lights and sirens.
Lights and sirens are for true emergencies only.

Streator Ambulance because thats the only organization that uses lights and sirens in this town that has a main office in Peoria.

There is no Streator Ambulance. It's Advanced Medical Transport.
Rocket, exactly how do you know they are using their lights/sirens illegally?

You guys should know by now, that he doesn't know anything that he is talking about. He only spreads his paranoia and bad attitude via this forums. And feel free, go ahead and tell AMT in Peoria, I have full faith in the fact that they will send their top investigator up here to take a look.  I'd offer to call a waaaaaaambulance, but I think AMT provides that service and they might have to misuse their lights and sirens to get to something that is not an emergency. I hope when someone you know is dying, the ambulance people think twice before they flip that switch. |

Not a regular poster, but he won't believe that because he's f**king paranoid. I just like to sit back and watch the crap show.

AMT is frigging reckless....it's always nice to watch them d**n near wreck into someone's car not once but twice because the driver wasn't paying the slightest bit of attention. And yes he did have the lights and sirens going.

I have seen this from both AMT and SPD.
Rocket is telling the truth on this one.
I've been the first to call him out when I think he's wrong, but he's not wrong.

Now, I've noticed that the ambulance service has been having their lights and sirens on more frequently than normal. Which I seriously thought that was odd. I have seen the police have lights flashing, and when they pass the stop lights shut off their flashing lights. Maybe people need to get their cells out and start recording their action and put it on the internet.

My advice is don't push it any further unless you want these people to start video recording your actions to use as evidence to get something done to stop this kind of behavior of misusing the lights and sirens.
Use common sense and don't use the lights and sirens unless you actually are picking up a patient or transporting a patient to the hospital.
Doing this kind of stuff is like the boy crying wolf.
Keep misusing the lights and sirens and one day you will have an actual life threatening emergency and no one will move out of your way to let you by ,cause they will think you are misusing the lights and sirens.

Wouldn't matter if someone didn't get out of the way or not, the woman that AMT d**n near hit was trying her hardest to get out of the way, (had she not made it over) she barely got her car over... he would have bulldozed over her...causing some pretty serious injury. I'm thinking the person that is defending this is either family, friend, or one of the drivers...just my opinion |

I work at a place on N Bloomington St. We hear them coming north sirens blaring but don't hear or see them returning towards the hospital.
Things that make you go hmmm.
