They have these drills once or twice a year. The sirens are on small towers mounted on larger police stations. The drill lasts 1/2 hour. During that time all traffic on major roads must pull over and stop. No one can cross streets on foot or bicycle. No one can leave MRT stations. Cops are stationed at nearly every corner, throughout the entire city, but again, just major roads. They blow whistles at transgressors who are duly shamed before those who are already suffering imposed immobility. = )
