can I please have my 8 SECONDS BACK

Why using the siren and stopping vehicles ahead when turning right?

[mr2turbo9124]

Different departments call it different things. In Memphis we don't use terms Code 3 or Code 20...we just say blue light n sirens lol. But Code 20, Code 3 are just different ways different departments use to mean blue lights and sirens. I know some just call it Emergency Mode.

There is no "universal" code system in the states. Every department is different, some use code 1-5 for response types, some use code 10-50, the service i work for in texas uses Priority 1-5 to determine response type.

Well first off, my parents are/were police officers with GPD, and I am an explorer who knows all the radio codes.
