If your house number can’t be seen from the road… neither can your emergency.

Clear, visible house numbers help emergency services find you faster when every second counts.

Make sure your house numbers are:
✔️ Clearly visible from the road.
✔️ Not blocked by trees, decorations, or any other debris.
✔️ Easy to read at night.
✔️ In contrasting colours.

That flashing green light isn’t decoration! It means a volunteer firefighter is responding to an emergency.

When you see a vehicle displaying a flashing green light in Ontario:
🚗 Safely yield the right of way
⬅️ Pull over when safe to do so
🚫 Don’t follow closely or try to pass aggressively
⚠️ Stay alert — they’re heading to help someone in need

Volunteer firefighters respond from home, work, dinner tables, and ball games - every second counts.

Did You Know? In an emergency, West Grey Volunteer Firefighters use flashing GREEN lights when responding! 🚨

To help them get there fast, please pull over and yield, just like you would for an ambulance, fire truck, or police car.

⏱️ Every second counts—your quick action could save a life!
