Opticom for Emergency Vehicle Pre-Emption Opticom for Emergency Vehicle Pre-Emption

Fire and Emergency Medical Services agencies face a constant struggle to improve response times and the safety of responders, even while shrinking budgets limit their flexibility. According to a 2009 National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) report, the largest number of firefighter deaths (38%) occurs while responding to or returning from alarms. And each minute of delay in arriving on scene reduces the effectiveness of fire and emergency medical services personnel to protect lives and property. Opticom™ Priority Control Solutions can help. The world leader in emergency vehicle preemption, Opticom systems provide quantifiable results (references available upon request) to help you ensure safer, faster arrival on scene, while maximizing your resource investments.
