InventHelp Inventors Develop New Emergency Vehicle Alert Feature (LOS-323)
PITTSBURGH, July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- "We wanted to create a vehicle system to warn drivers of an approaching emergency vehicle," said one of two inventors, from Burbank, Calif., "so we invented the SAFE SIREN. Our design prevents the emergency vehicle from being overlooked, and it could help prevent serious collisions." The invention provides an effective way to alert motorists to the presence of approaching emergency vehicles. In doing so, it allows more time for the driver to react and yield right-of-way. As a result, it increases safety, and it helps prevent confusion or sudden surprises. The invention features an automatic design that is easy to use so it is ideal for vehicle owners. Additionally, a prototype model and technical drawings are available upon request. The original design was submitted to the Los Angeles sales office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers.
