The same can be said for many government employees here, actually. And the street police tend to just drive around and honk at people, which doesn't teach them anything, and we all have to listen to it throughout the day and night, and try to tune that and everything else out the best we can, leading to them and other "services" honking and blasting their sirens even more, because that's all they know how to do. Literally a fire truck siren right now. Edit: followed by an ambulance.
