As a frequent lights and sirens passenger I'm convinced that they cause such a huge adrenaline spike that surrounding drivers act completely irrationally. Drivers will see us and then slam on the gas to dart in front or sometimes just stop in front of us. So many close calls where our engine almost gets hit by a human driver who seems completely committed to hitting us. Or we'll be turning onto a street (sometimes we have to swing wide to take a tight corner) and there will be a driver trying to squeeze by and making the same turn as us.
