🔬🚓 It's National Science Week and here’s a science fact you might hear before you see it. Have you ever noticed how a police siren sounds higher as it approaches and lower once it passes?

That's the Doppler Effect. As an emergency vehicle moves towards you, the sound waves bunch closer together, increasing their frequency and making the siren sound higher in pitch. As it moves away, the waves spread further apart, decreasing their frequency and making the pitch sound lower.

It’s an interesting science fact, but it’s also a road safety reminder that if you hear a siren, stay alert, check your surroundings and, when safe to do so, give emergency vehicles a clear path. Those few seconds can make all the difference 🚓🚑🚒
