It reminds me of people from town apartments moving to village house and then complaining about rooster making noise, tractor in the street making noise or someone dare to use circular saw on weekend! I mean I moved next to fire station (maybe 200m direct unobstructed view), should I go complaining about their sirens? Though I'd appreciate if they used just lights after like 2000 when kids go sleep and there is really no need for sirens because of minimal traffic anyway until first junction.
