- Describe the challenge you want to address:
- Years ago, I remember seeing an ambulance having difficulty recognizing the particular number to a house in order to identify the correct location That time wasted because numbers on dwellings are not big enough or clear enough is enough delay to cause the death of an individual. Time is a matter of life and death in that particular situation.
- Describe your idea and approach to address the challenge:
- Considering every second counts toward whether someone lives or dies when First Responders are trying to ascertain the correct building/ house number(s ). I propose that every dwelling/ residence, and commercial structure is mandated to have fluorescent or glow in the dark 7 to 10 inch numbers or lettering. In the daytime the number should be very visible and in the night time it should be illuminated so that First Responders can see the address numbers easily. This I know will reduce time delays for First Responders and potentially save many lives.
