or go to vic uni and do there course BUT once again they have periods of spitting out too many paramedics for not many positions or people not surviving the course.

The first course they ever run they had 30 people to start with then ended up with 8 at the end of semester 1. The course is alot better now with both emerg and non emerg clinicals.

Emerg alert is good BUT would be annoying to some drivers the fact the signal is not just ahead but to the sides as well so those is another street if its within reach.

Some CFA units are using them in victoria but thats about it

Yeah pitty its not directional, rather then 360 broadcast. Would be interesting to see some test results to see if it improved navigation of traffic in a emergency. :-k

CFA unit?

Its a great idea just seems that not many services wanna use it.

If your going up the freeway and others are coming down they get the warning too so it can cause confusion. BUt great product though
