@@nikkosw Any higher ranking fire officers may be required to respond to calls, even when off duty. As such, the fire brigade will give them unmarked vehicles for them to take home when they get off shift, and they may even be allowed to use them as if the unmarked fire car is their personal vehicle, depending on the Brigade's policies. In this instance, there is no chance that some random citizen or reporter will start bugging the fire officer with questions like "Why is your Fire Brigade vehicle being abused at the taxpayer's expense?" and so on.
@@thepurdychannel8866 they are “poor” lighting setups as then the cars remain as covert as possible as most of these cars are personal cars kept at home for officers day to day use hence the wide variety
@@FlokGaming only about one or two in this video a lot i saw only had a small cheap led beacon on the roof and 2 little corner flashers is poor seen a lot better covert set ups than this bet the lighting department had budget cuts😄

In the day you can barely see most of their emergency lights. This is rather a dangerous trend
What incident can require so much "undercover" fire brigade elements or high tier officers?
@@tinoprime it does, thank you.

Alot of them could really do with a dash light or something else near the middle
interesting, they have the blue light on the roof. New regulation in England? I think that makes a lot more sense too.👍
I think a lot of them in this video have very poor lighting they need some fenix quad interior lightbars

@@thepurdychannel8866 its enough light on a personal undercover car
@@ThamesValley999 oh right but im sure they could use better hide ways and better dash lights

Are Officer cars thos who are station commander / sub officer and group commander (borough)
No, I think they have regular shift patterns. I think it's Station Commander and higher that can respond in unmarked vehicles.
The intersection LED heads in licence plates seem to have become quite fashionable
👍👍👍👍
