Some of the new luxury cars are so soundproofed from outside noise that even with the stereo up just a little bit you cannot hear the sirens of emergency vehicles. That also coupled with residential zones requiring cities to lower the db of the siren outputs all lead for some people in cars without steroes on the inability to hear emergency vehicles.
