addEventHandler("onVehicleEnter", root, function(player, seat)
   if seat == 0 then -- If a player starts driving a vehicle...
      -- ... customize the vehicle sirens and bind a key to ouput info about them to the driver
      addVehicleSirens(source, 1, 1)
      setVehicleSirens(source, 1, 0, 0, 0, 100, 0, 100, 255, 122)
      bindKey(player, "z", "up", outputSirenInfoToPlayer, source)

   local sirenData = getVehicleSirens(vehicle)
   outputChatBox("These are the properties of your vehicle's siren:", player, 0, 255, 0)
   outputChatBox("RGB siren colour: " .. sirenData[1].Red .. ", " .. sirenData[1].Green .. ", " .. sirenData[1].Blue .. ".", player)
   outputChatBox("Maximum alpha (during bad visibility conditions): " .. sirenData[1].Alpha .. ", minimum alpha (during good visibility conditions): " .. sirenData[1].Min_Alpha .. ".", player)

addEventHandler("onVehicleStartExit", root, function(player, seat)
   if seat == 0 then -- If a player stops driving a vehicle...
