1. A system for providing digital alerts corresponding to emergency vehicle light device activations, the system comprising:
a light device removably attached to at least a portion of a surface of an emergency vehicle, the light device comprising a set of light emitting diode (LED) lights;
a light controller device communicatively coupled to the light device, the light controller device further comprising a network device and a memory communicatively coupled to a processor, the memory comprising computer-readable instructions configured to, with the processor, implement an alert manager, to cause the processor to:
detect a change of an activation state of the light device from a de-activated state to an activated state, wherein the light device flashes at least one LED light in the set of LED lights in a user-selected flash pattern when the light device is in the activated state;
determine whether the emergency vehicle is in motion;
generate a notification identifying a current location of the emergency vehicle responsive to detecting the change in the activation state of the light device and determining the emergency vehicle is in motion, wherein the notification is withheld in response to a determination the emergency vehicle is stationary; and
provide the notification to a remote computing device via the network device, wherein notification data associated with the notification is utilized to generate a digital alert associated with the emergency vehicle, the digital alert is displayed via a user interface device associated with a second vehicle.
