For instance, when there is an alarm at a bank, it would be pretty silly to advertise to the bank robbers that you are coming by making a really loud noise that they can hear blocks away.

Or maybe he was following someone who would not pull over to the right so he could pass and the accident was caused. When you call for help you want it there right now. I'm sure police officers try to respond as quickly and safely as possible, but sometimes the general public does not cooperate and clear the road to make way.

It seems like everyone is looking for a reason lately to voice complaints against the GPD and the DCSO. Bad things do happen to good people guys including the police dept.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-62948320776041375522009-11-16T08:21:39.267-05:002009-11-16T08:21:39.267-05:00Just asking a question Echo, please note the multi...Just asking a question Echo, please note the multiple question marks. No need to get so defensive. I personally have seen GPD officers, many times over the years, fly up behind me on the street with lights and no siren. So I was just curious as to if this was the case this time.<br /><br />I, believe it or not, respect and appreciate the GPD and DCSO. I understand why it takes so long to work on a case and get results. However, I do need to question how they respond with lights and no siren some of the time. The EMS and Fire people use both every time, why doesn’t law enforcement? As you obviously seem to be in law enforcement maybe you could explain to me why they respond like this and clear up my obvious ignorance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-84387550549844221792009-11-15T19:26:04.056-05:002009-11-15T19:26:04.056-05:007:08 - Are you claiming that the officer had his l...7:08 - Are you claiming that the officer had his lights on but not his siren? And that this is normal practice for the GPD? (It may be more helpful next time to write your response in a complete sentence so it can be understood.) If that is what you're claiming, were you there? And if you think that's the normal practice for all GPD officers on all calls, maybe you need to pay more attention to what's going on around you.Echonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-16892424823588415952009-11-14T19:08:51.296-05:002009-11-14T19:08:51.296-05:00With his lights and no siren as their normal?????With his lights and no siren as their normal?????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-9718782106102763982009-11-14T16:50:07.139-05:002009-11-14T16:50:07.139-05:00He was enroute to an emergency call.He was enroute to an emergency call.Echonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-28265165416976287892009-11-14T16:36:56.900-05:002009-11-14T16:36:56.900-05:00Maybe he was texting.Maybe he was texting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
