Legislation could change how emergency vehicles operate in Illinois – Center Square

Senate Bill 1251 would require motor vehicle laws and regulations to be met when the ambulance or rescue vehicle speed exceeds 25 miles per hour. The current law sets that speed at 40 miles per hour. The bill also calls for the siren to be on when any pedestrian is present.

One unfortunate accident happened, while trying to save someone else’s life, and now everyone has to pay the price? This is insane.

Good luck needing an ambulance or fire truck or cop car in an emergency. It will get there when it gets there.
