Be heard in a modern car with loud radio and great insulation and 2) pass
the populace acceptance test.

1 Why would they play music loudly in an insulated car when doom is

Because they haven't yet been informed, perhaps.

It's not always a "death or flee" scenario, it could be hazardous but not
deadly.
Richard's description adequately suits:
Local - that would reach out approximately 1 mile and "overbroadcast"
to those immediately in danger within a stationary site.
Your objections are more tailored to suit your solution than the
