That thing sure does sound pretty when she winds up.

I spent 6 years with the local Explorer Post and numerous internships with the Washington State Patrol. There is not a sound I love more than that 4.6 Liter V8 roaring over the wailing siren. Brings a smile to your face every time!

Ok it seems like there's a need for some clarification again regarding this video. The call was "Injury accident, car vs. motorcycle with a fight following." We had 2 or 3 units responding to this situation. So, I hope that's serious enough for you bleeding heart - "you're driving too fast" - Monday morning quarterbacks. There's no denying that code 3 driving is a rush and one of the fun parts of the job. However, we don't just do it for some random reason or to go get doughnuts.

I don't understand all these people. Code 3 response is for a reason, and that is to get there fast, not take your time. Lights & sirens mean get outta the way, not stare and listen. I don't understand these people who say you're driving too fast. If they want you to drive the limit, then what's the point of the lights and sirens.. Honestly people, until you're in a situation where you want the police there quick, I don't think you'll understand how Code 3 responses work.

Man I love the sound of the P71 wide open. That's why I own a 2004 myself (Best year and they are amazing cars. I love mine). I don't understand why all these people are bitching about his driving. He's a first responder heading to an accident call with injuries. Was he supposed to drive like an old blue hair? If somebody is breaking into your house, do you want the cops to drive 35 MPH to get to you or do you want them there as fast as possible before the bad guy kills you. Freakin morons.

Awesome run--You got there safe w/o anyone injured--best type of code 3 run there is!!! Hats off to you!!!

That Engine! sounds awesome

That seemed to be a perfectly executed code 3. Great job! And a great vid! ;)

I dont care what that deputy said. I would like to see my tax money going to people who move like this to get to a call. This officer seamed like he knew what he was doing and Im sure followed policy for his agency.

very rare to find police code 3s on here awsome job

Love the song you were listening :)

Dude love your radio station.

oh baby the sound of that big ford going through the gears...sends chills down my spine everytime LOVE IT

Nice Driving, it's amazing how fast you got there considering people wouldn't yield. Stay safe out there.

All I can say if this guy is the first responder and im bleeding out at the side of the road, Im glad hes driving fast. Nice driving.

nice run. glad to see someone 33 that knows what their doing. stay safe.

thanks for posting the video i love it

Hey man, what cruiser is that you drive? Crown Vic'?

I agree, I like how you slowed down at the red lights. I know when i was learning to drive the ambulance it was a point they stressed

It's so funny that the people who were yielding...brake FIRST then pull over....so smart...

ommmggggg that sounds soo goood keep em coming bro drive safe

something a cop said to me once as he drove in oncoming traffic is "they may not see the lights or hear the sirens but they sure as hell will see my squad driving straight at them"

I completely agree. The new Interceptor sounds like a lawnmower. And this siren is also one of the best. R.I.P Crown Vics

Good run. You've got the public well-trained, too.

love the song at the end, very nice touch!

That was txt book on how to run code to get to a call. Very well done. My hats off to the officer.

I enjoyed it. Who hasn't wanted to be a cop or a fireman blasting through traffic? That's why I love these videos, it puts you in their seat for the ride.

Oh ok makes sense :) Nice Vid I love the roar of your Vic!

Guess that proves that you can get in a wreck on a code run. Thanks for the wisdom.

Traditional translation of Code 3 is "Emergency". So when you're responding Code 3, you are responding emergency. Lights and siren are just tools used request the right-of-way to make your response faster, and more safe. If you guys are going to fight over what Code 3 means, then get it right. Code

@marshall0792 Let me help you understand. The last thing I want is to fly by someone on the left side just as they decide to make a left turn. I need to know they know I'm there and that I'm passing them. That's why we wait until they "fly off the road into the ditch" to pass - after all - pulling over to the right is what the law requires. Hope that helps.

I know it's an old vid, but it was a good watch! Fantastic run (or blat as it's called in my area of the police); despite the idiots who didn't yield - it's a well known fact, people just don't pay the proper amount of attention whilst driving. Stay safe

it never ceases to amaze me how people just freeze where they are when you are coming up code 3. yeah i was lucky enough to hand away my keys to my 05 vic in exchange for an 07 impala....yay! not really, they suck, i'd still be a mile behind him going to the same call.... keep the videos coming. i need to upload some more of mine

In Texas we call it a "10-50 Major" The siren is a Unitrol Touchmaster. I love the roar of the Ford Police Incerceptor!

In Texas we call it a 10-50 Major. The Siren is a Unitrol Touchmaster. I love the sound of the Ford V-8 Police Interceptor.

Do your vehicles have stoplight (strobes?/radio?) to change them to green?

5:23 "Lord of Heaven and Earth!" PRAISE THE LORD!

I love at the end we come to find out that you were listening to worship music while hauling tail to this call.

I've been in and seen Dodge Charger, CVPI and Impala police cruisers, and after driving an Impala, I relize it has a hell of a lot more power behind it than you would have to think. I wouldnt be on the curb crying if I was given an Impala rather than a CVPI, it definently does the job.

damn that car purrrs!! great video!

Something else that added to the problem is the OSHA mandated bumper mounted speakers (smaller in most cases), not near as effective as the rooftop speakers were, but I guess it's worth keeping your hearing after a run. I am a motorcycle officer, and I've noticed that when a cruiser is responding behind me, I really can't hear their siren more than probably 500 feet away... something to keep in mind when riding up on a motorcyclist. Those sirens sometimes aren't as loud as you might think.

what's the siren model? i've alerady been searching for these where th first loop of wail/yelp is in a lower tone.

nice siren work what siren you running and lightpackage?

I was wondering if you still work for the county? If so you still patrol that area?

man, u just gota love that v8

@tangapirat depends on what state your in, you could be 3 months or 3 years of training.

I love the sound of the Roaring ford V-8 Police Intereptor! The siren is a Unitrol (Federal) Touchmaster, I have on in my car too.

Great sound. Thanks to the officers that will do this.

gotta love banging on the steering wheel to change the siren. Thats why my supervisor loves me. My patrol supervisor doesnt have to bang on the steering wheel, instead, he has me control the siren. FUN FUN FUN! :D

Good driving. I work as an EMT and it's always best to have police on scene...good response, and be safe!

@Damn876 I know that's the same motor as the mustangs, do the new crown vics have the new mustang motors?

do you haved the rumbler installed in your unit now?

Love that he hits the gas to get through the yellow light around 2:40. You and I aren't so different after all...

You going to record more of these? I enjoyed watching it. Stay safe. :)

Those flimsy Impala's all the departments are switching to have NOTHING on the Crown Vic! Hearing that roar from that big V8 is one of those things that makes life worth living!

Awesome video...great response. Listen to that motor roar, gotta be a Vic

Looks like this kind of driving happens everywhere. In Colorado nobody yields the right of way to emergency vehicles either, but yet I forget to turn off my front amber flashers and they pull right over, i don't even have headlight wig wags or a siren! Stay safe and keep it between the ditches!

sounds like a touchmaster delta to me based on the wail/yelp sweep tones and the ticking noise that you can hear when the siren isn't running

@ReneReaper here it's like when an emergency vehicle hits another car while responding, it has to stop, no matter what call it was and even if they just hit the other car's mirror, they have to stop; then another unit has to take over the emergency

Now those are beautiful sounds, the growl of the engine and the siren. Which siren is that?

how fast were you going most of the time?

how fast were you going to get there?

do you guys have a limit to the number of patrol cars that can go gode 3?

What's a 10-50PI btw ? What does it stand for ?

Fantastic video! :)

Hi, i have a question... is the transmission A/T or M/T??? Why you get the gear so high??? I think you are running slower than if you change the gears over 5000rpm. See ya!

nice video and sirens. love the roar of your v8 engine is it a 4.1 l?

oh good, YEESSSS.... police code runs! thank you sooo much! - Peace and love from Norway

The 208- I love the long straight roads in Boise.

Are you ISP or BPD?

Whow, does a Crown Vic sounds THAT good?! Nice !

In my area, the city PD will respond and control and help until county gets there. All the city PDs do that. Is that a mounted personal camera? I ask as there is no telemetry showing. I've thought of doing that and wonder what mount you used if it is a personal camera.

Normal light bar you would see on a black and white. Some are LED style and some have the traditional rotating mirrors. Not sure which type this was on this particular day.

You gotta love responding Code 3, definitely an adreniline rush.

Why was the siren turned off well before he arrived on the scene??? Also, I am NOT saying it is good or bad, but at the stoplight where he turned left is it normal behavior to go against traffic even though there was a clear path on the other side too???

Looks fun, feeling the tunes at the end. Where do you work?

The Chevy Caprice with the LT-1 Corvette engine was a nice car too. I remember the Plymouth Furys w/ 440 Police interceptor, I don't want to give my age away!

Nice vid, our cars also have the Unitrol touchmaster.

Love that engine sound and siren i will miss the crown Victoria and its 4.6 L

@Kheldarren a lot of the newer cameras in patrol cars don't show the telemetry unless you're watching like...on a DVD player with the captioning turned on. It's weird lol, so it might be an actual patrol car camera. My dad is a state trooper in Texas and I know that's what THEIR set up is :\

What is the speed you doing there?

OMG I love the Sound of the Engine !

@healingduck It's not unusual. The factors vary but it could be an old person who suddenly becomes confused and disoriented and needs to find their bearings, to someone who's being dense and not paying attention or someone has their music up really loud although I would expect them to see the flashing light bar. All in all, that's why officers are trained to exercise due regard when driving code 3.

@640101vh I wont argue with you on what you said as it's true, however as far as noisy, noisy over all or noisy at a specific speed? Because I'll look at my window and no traffic and all of a sudden a cop car goes by and no noise.

what kind of lights are you running?

Wooow ! It is very nice. I like the siren !

gotta love that V8 sound

love the song on the radio at the end

Great vid ! What car are you driving?

It is absolutely disgraceful how many people fail to YIELD to an emergency vehicle. One can only hope the same people don't pull stupid shit like that when they need a fast response.

lol your haulin some serious ass in that crown victoria! sounds like yer pushin that throttle hard lol :D

@LCPDofficerGarcia Actually, it is a law: 49-625. Operation of vehicles on approach of authorized emergency or police vehicles. (1) Upon the immediate approach of an authorized emergency or police vehicle making use of an audible or visible signal, meeting the requirements of section 49-623, Idaho Code, the driver of every other vehicle shall yield the right-of-way and immediately drive to a position parallel to, and as close as possible to, the nearest edge or curb of the highway... [and stop]

that V8 is awesome!

What siren is this? I notice my department uses these ones.

Funny thing about the Crown Vic, is when you floor it, the cold air conditioning disappears LOL.

the sounds of an american v8 and sirens gets my blood pumping

no opticon for lights?

ohh god that 4.6 sounds so friggin good...

That siren sounds like a Unitrol, alright. I recognize that wretched 'bawling' wail tone.

more please:] awesome vids!
