  1. KNOW THE BENEFITS OF AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE PREEMPTION DEVICE Emergency Vehicle Preemption Device cuts off the normal traffic signal timing to give a green light to coming emergency vehicles so that they can pass comfortably through intersections to reach emergencies quickly and safely. EVP can help reduce collisions by providing a red light to other car drivers that may cross the way of the emergency vehicles. EVP permits the other drivers to upgrade their awareness of emergency vehicles and warn them to yield the right-of-way by increasing overall safety. It reduces the travel time for the emergency vehicle, which helps improve the chances of saving lives if anyone is seriously injured. EVP approaches and technologies: Basic systems make use of zone detection. Equipment placed on the emergency vehicle sends out a clear infrared signal at the intersection once the vehicle reaches a given range. As soon as the traffic signal receives this message, it attempts to modify its signal timing to give a green light as early as it can. Ideally, technological limitations of the infrared emitter convey that intersection EVP equipment can only be recorded if the vehicle's signal is detected. It cannot calculate how far away a coming vehicle is or how rapidly it can reach. This can result in the green light to appear either too early or too late. More advanced EVP systems comprise wireless radios, GPS vehicle-location equipment, and EVP requests. These transmit vehicles' titles and approximate time to arrival details to the signal. This provides more reliability and advanced notice. Also, the most advanced EVP systems include cellular communications that connect emergency vehicles to the central traffic signal system, which isacross the emergency vehicle's path. EVP is powerful with key routes that emergency responders use.

  2. EVP Strategy benefits: • • It helps improve safety by reducing emergency vehicle-related impacts at intersections. It also improves emergency vehicle travel time to the incident scene and helps in supporting incident response and management. As any emergency can arise, a fully equipped emergency vehicle must be carefully made. So, get in touch with Emtrac Systems for thebest EVP Device.
