He didn't say that. Read it again. He said "shouldn't", not "couldn't".

That's a significant difference.

No, thats being pedantic.

It's what he said! The English language is subtle sometimes.

In any case, I have never been aware of any law, instruction,
recommendation, guideline, or anything else to say that sirens cannot
or should not or any other wording you would like to use, be used after
any particular time.

I thought there was an injunction against horn use after a certain time.
10:30 pm sounds familiar.
