@@Stargazzer811 So instead of rolling the truck that has a sufficient amount of water to extinguish a vehicle fire AND a residual brush fire, and potentially carries extrication tools (it IS a collision after all), we're going to roll a truck with NO extrication tools and probably tops out at 200 gallons. Cool. Excellent job. If the brush truck at my department rolls first due to a crash, I don't want to be around because that probably means that the apocalypse has started. I hope they enjoyed hanging out with their thumbs up their asses til the engine got there.
@@Firebuff101 Given the engine was 2 seconds behind them I think they showed up at the same time. Also manpower support is a thing, maybe they took the brush truck for that? Not all departments have rescues or utility vehicles.
Possibly due to driver certification? The pickup is basically a standard vehicle. The engine is, basically, a Class B CDL-type vehicle. Plus engineers needs some math skills. A designated driver for the engine may not have shown up yet.
@@SpartacusColo Also possible. I know in my department you need Basic Pump Ops, EVOC Class 3 and a training session with someone who is already an engineer to become an engineer.
Thank these people, they do it for free, and they have to spend their free time also in training…it is a major, selfless commitment
im a firefighter and i love the sound of sirens man.
That ambulance looked pretty slick not gonna lie, I'm weak for fluorescent stripes
That ambo looks a LOT like Wake County NC ambos
The engine should have the Q lol
Not only that, but they didn't even have the Rotoray spinning.
My thoughts too lol
what are the sirens for all 3
Why did the pickup roll before the engine?
That was their brush unit, and its a rural area. Perhaps a fire broke out during the wreck and they felt the need to be safe instead of sorry?
