Population affects most aspects of the society like crime rate, health status of residents, employment rate, etc. If there are more people in a city, the higher its chances to have more crimes recorded. This is due to anonymity.

It is impossible to know each person even if you are in the same neighborhood, thus, it is hard to identify criminals among strangers or outsiders.

One of the ways to control crime rates is through the help of social control in the presence of police officers.

Since a community has a high population, visible and stricter social control is necessary to monitor the whole location. Anonymity makes it possible for criminals to blend with the crowd thus making it easier for them to carry on with their criminal activates without being suspected.

One way to prevent crime is a fast response from emergency personnel. For example, police officers, when responding to a situation, should be fast so as to avoid any casualty. However, communities which required access often pose delay. Accessibility is controlled to exclude unwanted outsiders. It also prevents emergency responders from entering the vicinity without hassles.

In order to address this issue, Emergency Vehicle Access Control or EVAC is made. This is a simple yet efficient device especially made for first responders like police officers, medical personnel, or fire fighters. It is a radio control system which gives the authorities opportunity to open the gates without further ado.

With only a remote, the authorities can access the gated entrance by simply pressing the button on the remote.

This Emergency Vehicle Access Control remote is only available for emergency personnel thus, you are confident that your community or establishment is in good hands. Without having to fumble with keys or any other equipment which causes delay, EVAC makes the most convenient way to open the gate.
