Here in the Netherlands we already have such law. I can’t imagine how bad commercials can be with it. There is no reason except creating shock of confusion for such sound in a commercial and those things are not something you want in a car.
I got SiriusXM for Opie and Anthony, then Ant was fired like 8 months later. I kept the subscription for another year or so. Now I just have a USB stick with all my music on it, but much to my wife’s displeasure i only listen to one band.
On the handful of stations my wife listens to, they play the same handful of songs over and over again. It wouldn’t take a large USB stick to get better content.

In America it’s more likely that we ban the use of radios in cars
No, they’ll make you pay a subscription for it.
😂A scant $8.99/month for siren free radio 😆
That is, for about 2 years until they add the sirens back in and offer a $21.99/month ultra premium service with no siren sounds.
Free radio is now nothing but sirens and commercials 24/7
It’s called SiriusXM and I hate it

It’s already illegal in the US.
Where? It still happens where I live in southern Ohio.

This is not exactly about imitating police sirens, but the emergency alert system.
I can’t speak to how well enforced this is.
Is it enforced?
Can’t speak to that.
