So it's going to basically burn it self out. Miserable streams of water poorly placed.

Quite dreadful warning light array design: unsynchronized flashes all over the place! They diffuse the impact of flashes and they mutually distract from each other. Drivers have a harder time fixing on the vehicle and tracking its motion easily. Compare: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bILRaYKXf9KHqK8 (the first truck in the clip). Flashing headlights also wrong. Headlights should be steady as they are a great cue to presence and motion. Flashing they detract from giving position/motion information and any alternating flashes can mislead observers as to motion direction.
