Many nuclear plants lack backup sirens
I didn't realize they had sirens--I would have figured they would have had one of those beepers like garbage trucks have. And second, who knew they could MOVE, much less back up!? I think it would be pretty cool to drive a nuclear plant around the block.

We didn't have a backup siren, but we had a lot of cool alarms, including that ah-OOO-gah! ah-OOO-gah! dive thing.
