Earth-shaking Changes

‘A police siren that can’t be ignored.

Police in Oklahoma are excited over a new piece of equipment called the “Rumbler.” It is a very loud siren – so noisy that drivers will be able to feel their seats vibrate from the sound.

The low tone is also surprising many drivers – making them look up and pull over.

“It’s a deeper tone than the normal,” says driver Abby Ross.

And you don’t just hear the Rumbler, you feel it.

“A little bit, just a little bit. A little vibration in the seat and the car, not a big difference but enough to know they’re back there,” adds driver Don Balente.

And that’s exactly why Tulsa Police bought them. Officers say, even with their lights on and sirens blaring, drivers don’t notice their patrol cars.’
