"For who has a multiyear experience in prehospital emergency medicine and deals everyday with emergency transportation of critical patients the sensation is that the use of emergency warning systems are, mostly of times, useless and doesn’t really have any impact on clinical outcomes...
Take home messages for our system and for clinical practice

- Maybe we don’t need lights and sirens in transportation phase cause a great increase in risk of crash do not correspond to a clinical sensitive time gain."
