The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration commissioned a comprehensive report on the benefits, risks, and public perceptions of red light and siren responses. This ground-breaking report challenges many of the perceptions of the benefits of HOT responses with empirical evidence and public perception. The presenters provide a summary of the report and specific recommendations attendees can use to enhance provider and patient safety while maintaining public trust.
